A mother of all gigs

Tremendous show from Bay boyos Mothership who rocked their way through a great walk thru' of classic Led Zep complete with an acoustic medly and a crushing "Kashmir" to end on at Lllandudno Junction Labour club last Saturday.

Hats of (not to Roy Harper) but to Arthur Holden for having the vision to put together such a superb tribute band that does the memory of one of the greatest classic rock bands ever true justice.

Having seen Mothership before I knew what to expect whereas co-headlining band Four Weel Drive lived beyond great expectations. This is a band that has massive potential - great songs, dynamic arrangements and a hell bent for leather, good time rock and roll party attitude that is infectous.

Should  these four lads from Twickenham be lucky enough to float to the surface from the flotsom and jetsam left by acts such as Airbourne and Rose Tattoo then rest assured they can cut it with the best. Songs such as "White Lines, "Big, Fat and Ugly" and "Blood on the Walls" from the debut High Roller album are already classics.

With a second album currently being put together you would have to be mad not to get a ticket for the band's forthcoming gig at Colwyn Bay FC on Saturday June 25th.
