DeLoreans Rocking the Vestry Saturday Night

P7297786_2We rarely do public gigs so if you're in the area of Chichester tomorrow evening (Sat 19th) then pop to the Vestry Pub on South Street for a Back to the Future extravaganza! The DeLoreans are playing the beautiful Smiles's 26th Birthday Party and it's going to be a blast. With a chunk of new material under our belt and potentially the best cover a band of our like has ever done... I will say no more as it's a surprise this will be a blast. Hope to see you there.

All Welcome

Carla_singingThe DeLoreans are playing at the Venue in Chichester on the evening of Saturday 19th January. The gig is open to everyone so if you're in the area and fancy a boogie come down and join us. If you're a particular fan of my lovely husband Stephen then you'll be pleased to know that the 19th is also his 30th Birthday! Looking forward to seeing some friendly faces. Have a great new year! xc

Deep Breath

P7297727So the set's been decided, I have two outfits to choose from (do I go for my classic 50s red number or my new 40s green one?) and we're counting down in days not weeks to the moment I have to sing in tune in front of two thousand people. Help! Nathan sent me this thread from the Delirious website this morning. It made me laugh and cower all at the same time... appreciated the compliment though :) Ultimately regardless of nerves I'm resolved to have fun and give it my all. It's only 40 minutes of my life... eeek! xc

Cheesy Tunes

Delorens_cheeseThe DeLoreans played a Wedding in Petersfield on Friday night and I have to say I think we rocked. I do love being in a band with my lovely husband and some great guys. We wailed, rocked and funked out all night belting out such classics as Aretha's Respect and Gloria's I Will Survive: definite hits with the ladies...

The DeLoreans support Delirious: Shepherds Bush, Dec 18th

62I can't decide whether I'm terrified or excited but it's official, The DeLoreans are supporting Delirious at Shepherds Bush Empire! It's their annual Christmas shebang and for some bizarre reason they've decided to give us a thrill and let us open for them... aaaaaaaaaahhhhh I'm gonna sing at Shepherds Bush!!!!!! Ok I'm being cool about it. They do sell out pretty quick so it's worth buying tickets early if you can make it to London. Find details of this gig and the rest of the tour here.

Coldplay - better than U2

Team_coldplay_tougueThis morning I'm sitting infront of my computor with dry eyes, thick makeup, a strategically placed cap and a sense of inner contentment. Last night I may not have slept much but I did experience one of the best gigs I've ever been to. Yesterday afternoon Steve, Benny, Smiles and I made a traffic wraught journey up to Crystal palace to join the thousands of other Coldplay fans pouring into the arena...

U2 Baby

PictureSaturday morning I awoke slick with sweat wondering where I was. I rolled over, opened my eyes and saw my room before me but something felt strangely out of place. Then I realised, I was burning up, my pjs were clinging to me wet with sweat, was I sick, had someone tipped water over my bed whilst I was asleep, no... the minor heatwave of England had begun and my suntrap of attic bedroom had grown as hot as a Swedish sauna!

The Frames

P1010001The Frames are not an awful Folk Band that an old fogy would listen to Mr Freeman! The Frames rock! Last night I fought my way through the London Underground towards Islington to meet my parents, Lisa, Adam and Liam at the Carling Academy to watch… yes you’ve guessed it, The Frames…
