Superfuzz venture near the Arctic circle and come back with a suntan , hoorah !

12th July The Grand Hotel ,Tynemouth Melvyn and Stephanie wedding celebration

Up to Tynemouth, near Newcastle for Melvyns wedding celebration. Methinks they were married in the Bahamas or somewhere similar and just wanted to treat their friends and family. Nothing wrong with that !
The Grand Hotel is located in a stunning position looking over the beach and we very much enjoyed the vista.
Strangely the sounds of 1980's New Romantics, the Human League wafted over us as they were performing ajust a stones throw away in the local park. They sound 'spot on' live and Phil Oakleys voice has not diminished one bit.
 Afterwards we packed our equipment together and made our way to the Travelodge for a hot cocoa and some well deserved shut eye  and no we didn't carry onto to Newcastle and stay out all night long partying, and if anyone tells you different that must have been Hipster  not SUPERFUZZ , get it right !

13th July Dukeries Hotel near Huddesfield ,Christian and Dianne

A smashing little wedding festival in the heart of Yorkshire. A plethora of children and grandparents did not bode well for this party , but come 9 pm,  a slow trickle up the stairs to bedfordshire ensured we were left with a handful of party lovin, dancing swiss bankers no less. They danced and rocked about with real gusto and had a penchants for heavy rock too  . We obliged with some AC/DC and Black Sabbath . How could we refuse ? They even cajoled us into another set and we ended up playing another half an hour, you Guys !

Friday 28th June , Twycross zoo ,wedding.

A wedding at Twycross zoo , who came up with that brilliant idea ?How many brides dance the night away in the presence of a beautiful snow leopard ?We had a great time and this venue certainly offered something very different. The snow leopards particularly enjoyed , Tiger feet , Love cats and little lion man. They hated Hound dog , puppy lover and who let the dogs out , er sorry .

Rufford MIll 29th June2013

 A 3 pm arrival ,acoustic set and 2 x 1 hour sets certainly made for a very long but very enjoyable day.
The guest were in high spirits from the off and bopped around non stop. The happy couple seemed to have  their own version of Bez from the Happy Mondays.He certainly kept the party going . Especially loved his dance with the brides wheel chair bound Grandmother who was whizzed around the dance floor at top speed. The evening ended with the groom and Bez in what can only described as the missionary position.
Hats off to you party lovin nutters !

Marquees and downpours

8th June 2010 Ashton House Jeni's 21 st Birthday party .

Wow !The best looking audience ever .  Times the Saturdays by ten and you will have some idea of what I'm talking about . We weren't allowed off stage even after playing for a  gruelling two and a half hours , they just wanted more and more . By the end I felt like I d been ten rounds with Mike Tyson .

Oh,  another chance to insert a picture of the Saturdays , sorry !

This date marked the début of Superfuzz 2 our new trusty van . Our VW was getting too cramped due to George's ever increasing bass equipment . I bought it off a very amiable chap called Mr Asif Sheraz . Which does beg the question ,would you buy a van off someone called As If ? I did ! Anyway it seems to be ok with plenty of cup holders and a reassuring grunt under the bonnet .

We ve been pondering having it emblazoned with our photo's with " Superfuzz wedding band "written on it. However, George is so good looking, female drivers would be constantly overtaking us to look , causing major traffic chaos ( tongue in cheek ) , perhaps better leave it white .

29th May 2013 wedding Joanne Webb

A wedding on a Wednesday , are you crazy ? Does no one work Thursdays anymore ?
Anyway ,it rained so hard on the way to this wedding , we could have done with a speedboat instead of a vw van . We were a tad late due to biblical flooding. Sometimes,unfortunately circumstances conspire against us ; on arrival however our couple had not panicked and were pleased to see us .Its better to a little arrive late than driving dangerously and putting musicians at risk . How would the world of drumming recover if I had been lost to the storm ? ( very easily I here you cry ,thanks ) All went swimmingly though , pardon the pun -We set up in record time and played two blistering sets our guests appreciated ; left to kind words and hearty thanks , another satisfied client ! Bravo

Website link , apparently it helps our google ranking ,http://www.superfuzz.co.uk/derbyshire-wedding-bands/

Warning political  rant coming up  :- Google has a lot to answer for . The whole world is obsessed with being at the top of it , It used to be mount Everest or K2 . Cannot the human race find a more productive use of its resources than striving to be top of a virtual directory of everything , and Google doesn't pay any tax !

Time for someone to invent a UK search engine that pays it's way and doesn't spy on us . I think Ill start one and call it Nigel after me . Hoorah . 

25th May The Olde Post office Shrewsbury for Alive Network

What a lovely oldy worldy place Shrewsbury is. A very small room awaited our arrival . The guest were very welcoming and we had a great time and received the following feed back to our agent 

On the night junction 26 were fantastic – they played a great set of rock’n’roll, old favourites and modern tunes which had my guests up and dancing from start to finish."

ps , we are called junction 26 and Easy Street on Alive Network as they require all their bands to have names that do not appear anywhere else on the internet , to avoid conflicts with our own site and other agencies.

A rather large back garden somewhere in Warwickshire CV32.
I don't know about you but I would struggle to fit a 2 man bell tent in my garden let alone a huge marquee . But marquees seem very trendy at the moment . The weather was kind to these country folk and everything went tickerty boo . The chef looked after us with leftovers and humoured us with his cookery tales . Is it me or are all chef's completely bonkers ?
We will be returning soon to this slightly remote part of Wawickshire due to someone leaving a bag of lyrics there , which dumb ass could that be ? answers on a post card.

The Superfuzz rock Donny races

4th May 2013 Doncaster Racecourse extravaganza 

Wow , the Superfuzz performed in front of 1200 people at the Doncaster race day . A massive sound rig and stage was a welcome change to being crammed into tight rooms and corners . The crowd were well lubricated and sang along to Mr Brightside and Chelsea dagger with hearty enthusiasm and we loved every minute. There were lots of  Stag and hen nights and we enjoyed kind words at the end .Thank to Paul from Liz Hobbs group for a great sound through the pa , the drum kit sounded like a freight train.

We really enjoyed ourselves, and if there is anywhere we can write a testimonial on your website, we'd be more than happy to.

Ah ,the joys of spring

Its been so cold and horrid , I thought spirits may have been subdued at our recent weddings / bookings , but no, they have been on the whole raucous affairs ,all except for one , read on.

16th March 2013
Off to the Botanical Gdns in Birmingham for the wedding of the lovely Sam and Johnathan.
A somewhat large room greeted the band for this function , not quite as big as the Royal concert Hall , but not far off. This party went swimmingly and marked the début of Georges new 12 x 12 bass cab;the size of a large wardrobe and the weight of a large elephant. There's just one problem , we now need a bigger van !
Our host particularly enjoyed  indie classics , especially the Artic Monkeys ,Blink 182 and Green day , leaping around like demented Salmon , hoorah !

23rd March Spalding Conservative club

The 65 th birthday of the lovely Thelma was a conservative affair . The music was kept at low volumes so our guests could chat away about past glories and battles won. Even the disco lights were kept subdued at the request of one of the more senior guests. One did think they may have been better off with a mime act. shush please you rock n rollers !!!!!!!!!!

29th March Rudding Hall , Harrogate

A lovely wedding and a super venue near the beautiful Harrogate . Alex was marring Alex , which I thought was very clever. Marrying someone who has the same first name is so mod . I looked for years for a girl called Nigel and had to settle for a man instead.
Everyone danced the second set after drinking the bar dry during the first and I was particularly impressed with the grooms dashing army uniform complete with sword . His ability to stand to attention was in question but he deserved a hearty salute nevertheless .

30th March The Belfry , Richard and Gemma

Superfuzz were delighted to receive the following testimonial .

 Hi Paul

Myself and Richard would like to pass on a massive thank you for playing at our wedding on Saturday. We had the most amazing day and you made the evening reception!! That dance floor was full and everyone had a great time. There was lots of dodgy dancing and bouncing around... Led by myself ;-) The number of people who commented on how great you were is unreal. We really can't put into words how fab you were. We will definitely be passing on our recommendations.

Thank you so much
Gemma and Richard

We do appreciate kind words and these two people had the time of their lives. The party went perfectly ,everyone enjoyed the night  , well done folks !http://www.superfuzz.co.uk/west-midlands-wedding-band.html
