bathingape Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 VIVA HIGH ROLLERS - They are absolutely amazing live, I have seen them a fair few times including on the unsigned stage at Leeds Festival. Original music and a frontman to end all front men. How many other unsigned acts can get a conga going during a set on the unsigned stage. If you get the chance go see them. They are Sh*t Hot. And no im not getting commission Lol Yeah Viva High Rollers are amazing live...but i wouldnt call them original its just 70's rock. Best Sheffield bands for me are 65 Days of Static, The Mirimar Disaster and Grandadbob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam1412 Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Okay so maybe not 100% original but with whats out there at the minute I think its a breath of fresh air to the local scene. I here they are being managed by a guy who is the producer of Channel Fours '"The Friday Night Project" so hopefully big things to come. I think the Cherokees are being managed by the same guy as well. The man has taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TinaTina Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Nobody has mentioned Chicken Legs Weaver. Fantastic swampy grunge blues .... or something. The singer must gargle with gravel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowser_mong Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Try The Field, they have such songs as 'City of Steel' and 'Division Street'. Very decent band and a good bunch of lads aswel. Damn right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magic_rat Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Cherokee are a bit rubbish and ain't viva high rollers been around for years in one form or another? I'd have thought someone would have snapped em up by now......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam1412 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Well there ya go. Spoken like a true music critic "A Bit Rubbish." Your right about the Viva's though mate. Thay have been together a couple of years I beleive. They were formerly known as 2ci (the same line up) but their last management company forced them to change their name. Something about the bureaucrats not liking a band associated with 1 of the most powerful drugs available. Before that there was the Solution, similar line up with a different bassist and lead guitar. But if every band that wasn't "snapped up" within a couple of years quit then the music industry would be in dire state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry liam if my critique wasn't in depth enough i could go into why I think cherokee are a "bit rubbish" but it is probably summed up as "same old same old" (look i have put the quotation marks round it so you don't have to)........
