Big shout for No Hot Ashes, whose guitarist is currently an Assistant/deputy News Editor on the Belfast Telegraph. As for Ashanti - Hi Harv! <BR/><BR/>There were as many Friday rock nights as Saturday rock nights as I (vaguely) recall skipping too many lectures at Queens on a Friday to set about preparatory drinking...Ah such happy timesJonnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686558394484639631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11783714.post-1130650822279073062005-10-30T05:40:00.000+00:002005-10-30T05:40:00.000+00:00Geesus guys where you in the same venue?The place ...Geesus guys where you in the same venue?<BR/><BR/>The place was packed solid and not only that during their set they stopped to say<BR/><BR/>"Does it sound as good out there as it does up here? Man this place rocks!".<BR/><BR/>Seeing bands in such a intimate venue is what I pray for and by feck it was so so cool.<BR/><BR/>Talking to them about this later they said they had played 1000 capacity gigs in England to 150 people with crap sound and poor crowd response.<BR/><BR/>Apparently they had got the best sound on the entire tour and they were blown away by the gig.<BR/><BR/>BTW reading the review, I used to go to the Rosetta (and still head up ther regulary) every Saturday night back in the 80's not a Friday. That was Disco night. And who the hell are Heatsbane????.<BR/><BR/>Saturdays consisted of<BR/><BR/>Ashanti, Black and Blue Jam, Annex, Touchdown, Winters Reign, Glam Slam, Stateline, Emerald, Red Alert, Den Of Theives, No Hot Ashes, Bad Reputation, a great band from Derry called Tokyo and various others from Dublin and Belfast but who the hell are Heatsbane?<BR/><BR/>Or was that the dodgy band from Bangor called HeartsBane with some loon called Roger on the drums :)<BR/><BR/>I Love The Rosetta and thank feck its still there.<BR/><BR/>Please get your facts right though before you write a review.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11783714.post-1129583445449310322005-10-17T22:10:00.000+01:002005-10-17T22:10:00.000+01:00Fuckin' excellent show - your're right there - pit...Fuckin' excellent show - your're right there - pity it was such a wee venue.
