Whats on at this weekend

Tonight, at The Bungalow is The Springsteen Sessions, The Ultimate Springsteen Experience brings the music, the passion and the power of Bruce Springsteen and E Street Band to a whole new level of performance. They are not a tribute band that attempt to look like the original band; they are a homage to the music of one of the most iconic performers of the last forty years, and they feature music from the earliest period of his career right through to the more recent recordings.

All the anthems, all the classics, all the hits and selected album rarities are there in a stunning and spectacular two-hour-plus show which has fans leaving the venue wanting more. This is a must for fans of The Boss, but also for all fans of rock music at its finest, performed with energy and attention to detail. Tickets are £10 on the door and opens at 7pm.

The Bobby Deans Big Band are back with another blistering set of classic jazz and swing from 2pm. Tickets are £5 at the door. If you want a seat, get in early at 1pm when the doors open. 

Tomorrow night it is a welcome return to Combat Rock who are the UK’s Ultimate Clash Tribute with over 15 years of gigs behind them. The band have had some major support slots including Stiff Little Fingers in the Barrowlands and The Stranglers in Devon.
  
The band plays a range of songs from the first four albums plus some singles’ B-sides including Rock the Casbah, I Fought the Law, Should I Stay or Should I Go, Bankrobber, London Calling, Train in Vain, Guns of Brixton, Janie Jones, English Civil War, Straight to Hell, The Card Cheat and many others. 

Combat Rock always strive to capture the excitement of the live sound of The Clash with close attention paid to the original recordings. They also attempt to emulate the look of the band in their early days with the result that many have said that Combat Rock look and sound very much like the originals. Doors are at 7pm and tickets on entry are £8.
