Playing their first gig of the year for us, The Dusty Tools brought their peerless sound and stagecraft to the Buffalos on 3rd February. From the opening chords of the Eagles 'Heartache tonight' through to the closing echoes of 'Sweet Home Alabama' this was a class show. Playing to a packed house, even with sub zero temperatures outside this band showed that people will always turn out for a guaranteed good night's entertainment that The Tools are reknowned for. With excellent banter between singer/bassist Johnna and the crowd even the breaks between the songs were entertaining. Apart from the 4 members of the band, there were at least 3 other guys making sure they looked and sounded spot on all night. For the 4 years plus the club has been running Dusty Tools have consistently brought the highest standard of music to the Buffalos and just as consistently invested in ever improving lights and sound to bring the best possible show to the Herd. An absolute pleasure to watch and listen to.

Next Show:

Friday 10th February
The Trigger Men
Maybe not a familiar name, but no strangers to us, the Trigger men played at the old venue as TT Blue and we wuz well impressed by the quality of their set. Expect to hear stuff from The Rolling Stones, Muse, U2, Foo Fighters, Billy Idol, ZZ Top, TheCult, AC/DC, Nickelback and Santana. Watch them in action here in October 2011 in the Soundroom. I know you're going to love this band, apart from the fact I've been asked to book them by regulars who've seen them and recommended them highly. Come along and support another new name - you know there's nothing worth watching on the telly.
