THIS WAS THE ONE I HAD BEEN WAITING FOR. OVER FROM L.A. THE GREATEST WELSH ROCKER OF ALL TIME (WHO MENTIONED SHAKEY!!!!) MY NUMBER ONE MAN, DAVE EDMUNDS. GREAT VENUE BUT WHERE WERE THE TABLES AND WHERE WAS THE DANCE FLOOR. THREE HOURS STANDING IS HARD ON THESE OLD LEGS! HAVING STOOD THROUGH THE SUPPORT BAND ,WHICH PLAYED WHAT CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS MUSIC TO COMMIT SUICIDE BY, THE GREAT MAN HIT THE STAGE AND WHAT A SHOW HE PUT ON, BELTING OUT ALL THE OLD FAVOURITES AND A FEW NEWISH ONES TO AN AUDIANCE OF DYED IN THE WOOL (HA HA) EDMUNDS FANS. DESPITE A TERRIBLE SOUND SYSTEM DAVE HAD THE CROWD EATING OUT OF HIS HAND FOR A GOOD HOUR. THAT OTHER GREAT ROCKER GERAINT WATKINS GIVING SUPERB SUPPORT ON KEYBOARDS AND ALSO GIVING VOICE TO HIS OWN COMPOSITION ''DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS'' ALL IN ALL A SHOW TO REMEMBER. DON'T LEAVE IT SO LONG DAVE BEFORE YOUR NEXT VISIT
Second time at this great club. It has a huge dancefloor and a bar where you can get served quickly with plenty of staff. Line up was The Firebirds plus the Red Rockets supported by yours truly. After a nightmare journey from Cardiff. When are they going to get the M42 moving again? We arrived at the club at about 6-45 after The Firebirds and kicked of with some cool jivers. The Red rockets arrived late through no fault of their own, blame our wonderful motorway system again!!!! This was a new band to me and although this was not the type of club for them they put on a fabulous 1 hour set of storming explosive rockabilly. In the right club these boys would go down a storm. Really a band to look out for in the future. Well done boys!!! The stars of the night were the ever popular Firebirds, giving the audiance just what they wanted, a good mixture of jivers, strollers and boppers. All in all another great night at The Park Club. Again watch out for THE RED ROCKETS in your area
