Live Review - The Gassienda

Taken from the MySpace site of The Gassienda, Keighley

"Well hell yeah we really did get her back in the club!!

She just blew in from the windy city and rocked this joint to pieces.

She is 50ft of shexyness, classy kinda sassy with her skirt way above her knees…….as Steven Tyler would say !!

But yes sir, this band, are as tight as the proverbial nuns crutch. With tunes more catchier than crabs in Blackpool on the Glasgow fortnight !!!

Minki, poor gal was wee bit under the weather. But she sang her 50ft heart out to the pleasure of one and all. She really has got herself one helluva band. Totally together and it does give me pleasure (!) when a band make the effort to look like a Rock 'n' Roll band….I do wish others would take note !! But there again I am a stickler for that kinda thing !!!

Coming on like a female fronted Aerosmith with plenty of AC/DC riffs and with a subtle hint of pop made it a great show. Songs such as 'Ultra Violet', 'Strictly Only Swinging' and 'Skinny Minnie' are pure pop rock 'n' roll so much so it made me wanna whip out me old glam rock gear and shake some action. Great band and really nice folks!! Well worth a look at from any angle !!!!"

GIGS - Dates for your diary

50ft Woman will be playing the following dates - the last shows of the year, so if you wanna see me, you have 2 choices ... I am calling it the One Up There and One Down Here mini-tour

Friday 28th November, The Gassienda, Keighley
Saturday 29th November, The Good Ship, Kilburn

(Thought I would keep it symmetrical and have 2 venues beginning with G in 2 places beginning with K! :D)

There will be the usual fun and frolics - wear something red as it is a bit near to Chr*stmas (any excuse for a party) and bring a lovely fabulous picture of shoes with your email addy on it for the Shoe Shrine. There will prizes for my favourites!!

More information on both gigs can be found on MySpace page - www.myspace.com/50ftWoman

See a 50ft Woman on tour?? Rate Soho Sophisticated on MeMusic.co.uk now!!

Yes, it's that time again. No - not the end of summer (though it feels like it), but the chance to do your bit and give me that big push to something rather marvellous - a support slot with Dodgy in Autumn.

Metro newspaper are running the MeMusic competition to find a support band for Dodgy's December UK tour. I have entered 'Soho Sophisticated', which I thought was quite appropriate for a London paper, but now I need you all to go and rate it for me. The top ten tracks will be chosen by a panel of 'experts' but apparently this WILL be from the top 100 rated tunes.

But you haven't got long ... the competition closes on 24th August. That is THIS Saturday - so please get promoting and voting!

Please click on http://memusic.metro.co.uk/users/50ftwoman and click on the heart icon next to Soho Sophisticated to say you like the track. You can also add tags, which will help other people find me - and please, leave a comment so I know you stopped by.
