Never heard of them, but not to worry. Hope it's the start of things to come as far as matchday entertainment is concerned.
New owners are less than 18 months in and we have far better club visuals and identity in the Ponte Stand and the East Stand (granted some of that has been supported or organised by external departments), an amazing and regularly sold out Family Stand Area that is continuously evolving and improving, and live music before the game. Still work to do but credit where it's due. Rome wasn't built in a day and you can't turn things on overnight, but they're sticking to their promises. I guess that if this falls flat it won't happen again so let's try and support it by getting down to the ground 30 minutes earlier than normal - especially with it being a local band. Really like this
Probably won't be my cup of tea either ---- but you never know --- I still remember going to see COAST (Now Saxon) in the Vic at Cudeth on Friday nights in the seventies. A fantastic local band at the time, and one of the best experiences of my teenage years.
Could be wrong but I thought they were originally Iron Mad Wilkinson then The Wilkinson Band...but that was most likely someone completely different
