Who Remembers The Wapentake?


Recommended Posts

Have you noticed how many people who are into rock have been into rock for decades. I'd like to see if the youngsters of today are still into the music [i use that word carefully] that is playing in the clubs they frequent in ten years time let alone twenty or thirty..

It will be interesting to see:)

 

A lot of the old regulars now have kids who are into Rock (including myself) so maybe it will just be passed on from generation to generation:)

Trying to re-create some of the best music from this period, see the below details, on THURSDAYS at the Dove....any suggestions for classic songs, please let me know, as really want to put together one hell of a definitive playlist that captures the spirit of this time and place.....

If you like your rock extremely archive and of the more psychedelic and progressive slant, then check out our new THURSDAYS at the Dove from this week, as we do something totally different to our other nights and feature an entire evening of classic rock from the 60's and 70's crypt...

 

Think like a blend of Pink Floyd, Grateful Dead, Hawkwind, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Yes, Chicago, T Rex, Rolling Stones, Beatles (magical mystery tour era), Uriah Heep, Procol Harum, The Animals, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, The Doors, Love, Gong, Free, Moody Blues, ET AL and you have a vague idea of what its about......a weekly festival of psychedelic gems that will evolve week by week.......

 

We don;t know where its going but we will know when it gets there.........some psychedelic classic rock bands will feature on this night in the future too.....

 

GROOVY BABY

I guess you could say I'm a Wapentake offspring, my parents went a lot in the 70s :)

 

My taste in music has definitely been influenced by my Mum and Dad, no doubt about it. I hope if I have kids, they'll have that same passion for music (I'll just make sure I play a lot of Pink Floyd when they're growing up, like my dad did with me) :D
