    Anyone know any decent local ones at reasonably prices?

    I'm sorting a charity event at a local boozer and I'm looking to book a band that play Oasis/Arctic Monkeys/Killers/Stereophonics etc.

    Any recommendations please?

    @Fonzie I cannot recommend Hot Fuss enough. These lads are the real deal. Your genre in mind is what they do best and as an added bonus they're huge reds fans. Get in touch on https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063790261182

    My mate's band Versonic do that genre of covers and have played in Barnsley quite a bit. If you search for them on Facebook they should come up. They're based in Wakefield.
