well first i feel i should start by giving a hearty ‘Cheers m’ Dear’ to Nicky for trusting me with a login for this excellent source of all things Digbeth related.I’m Midge (the Diabolik bit is a FaceBook ‘thing’), i occasionally blog Here and often slog around Digbeth and it’s fringes attending various gigs typically of the ear bleeding variety. I’ll probably mostly be posting up music type events but i’ll try and mix it up with some other relevant stuff that comes my way, i promise to try my damndest not to nause it up and lower the tone.
So to ease in gradually here’s some events this Weekend…
On Friday promoters Wacky Weird and Wonderful present another great line-up at The Old Wharf with the Black Bombers, LoveKate KillGeorge and veteran Brum punks Dead Wretched headlining, £5:00 admission.
Also on Friday in an always entertaining quirky Alt. Country vein Bo Pilar & The Mountain Valley Boys play The Moseley Arms (no flyer so here’s a YouTube clip of an early gig at Digbeth’s Wagon and Horses, he’s learnt all the words by now i assure you), i believe this gig is Free Entry (go twice!)
Saturday is a full day of class retro riffs and quiffs with the Second Birmingham Rhythm ‘n’ Booze Rockabilly Alldayer at The Irish Centtre ft.The Excello’s, Bill Fadden and Slim, Slip ‘n’ the Sliders, 3PM till 3Am, £18:00 admission
Excellent! It’s great to have a one-stop round-up of what’s going on specifically in the Digbeth area at the weekend. Hope this will become a regular blog.
So do I Annie – Midge always knows about all the great gigs going whereas I rarely do! :-)
