At the Post Office, we like to go out and listen to live music
in the local area. We have trouble remembering which band was which
and those that we liked and disliked. We were going to keep a record
just for ourselves, but I feel other people may find it useful,
Therefore I have put togther a live band review.
We have listened to all the bands listed below and the views given
are only our opinions. Someone else may have completely the opposite
opinion... If you wish to disagree with any comments, please email

Rather a wierd sounding name, but a very good band. The band's
average age must only add up to 16, but they are excellent players.
The range of music is good in our opinion, the only criticism
is that the songs played are always the same every time, so
seeing them often gets a little tired. All live, no backing
tapes. |

| Ivory coast |
Duo covering pop songs ranging from 60's to modern music.
They sing/play over backing tapes, which (in our opinion) rather
reduces their performance. |

This is a very good band, with approx. 5 members, including
a female drunmmer. I havn't seem them recently though. Not to
be confused with a duo called Twister. |
