28A Victoria Road, KY1 1DS Kirkcaldy, United Kingdom | Kirkcaldy, SC

Led by the strong female voice of Charlie Cooper, this 5 piece blasted through a near two hour set, keeping the sadly sparse crowd entertained (get off your arses and get to these live venues folks, the telly's pish on a Friday and Saturday anyway!).... Kicking off with Born to be Wild and a scintillating version of Dancing in the Dark, it was already obvious that they were shit hot musicians, and that Charlie has one cracking 'rock songs' vocal range. Breaking the Law (tune!), Zombie and a 'top rock' version of Wicked Game from Chris Isaak, had 3 lasses in the corner boogieing away. Deeper Underground "from the film Godzilla" Charlie informs us was followed by a blistering rendition of Rebel Yell (now that IS a tune 👏). You Oughta Know, Running Up That Hill, Enter Sandman, Walk This Way and You Can Go Your Own Way took us up to a well deserved break for the band. 👏👏Along with Charlie, we had Leo 'tammy and shorts' on drums, Stu and Jake, two top guitarists and Woody the bass player hidden away in the back but still heard! They all know their stuff, and were back on in jig time for part two. Talking of jigging the three lasses in the corner were still having a good time bopping away to the mainly 'rock' classics🤟🤟... Woody the bass player was called into action early doors on part two with the bass solo in The Chain from Fleetwood Mac.. Well done Sir , you aced it.. Since the word 'Ace' came up it's only right to mention the passing of Ace Frehley from Kiss who will be sadly missed by the rock fraternity. 🙏.. The band now gave us a somewhat 'raunchy', thanks to Charlie's stage antics, of Come Together, a Beatles classic.. (John Lennon couldn't compete with that version 😂🤟).... Bad Romance , How You Remind Me and Weak took us up to Even Flow from Pearl Jam "This song is in my top five of all time" says Charlie... I'm Just a Girl is followed by a topper from the now also sadly departed Ozzy Osbourne, Crazy Train.. 🙏 Next up was a full on musical assault from a Led Zeppelin number, Rock and Roll.. I'm not what you'd call a heavy metal or rock music connoisseur by any stretch of the imagination, but this song is a 'belter', and it got the rendition it deserved from the band... A change of genre was in the offing next up, as the punters were asked to join in with the "Wo-oh's" as Charlie sang us The Kids In America, a classic from the 80's from Kim Wilde... The band finished off with another two top tunes, You Give Love a Bad Name from Bon Jovi, and the Dreadnought Classic of All Time, Whole Lotta Rosie from ACDC, (complete with Charlie wearing lit up devil horns... We'd once again been treated to top quality music from a top quality band. I particularly liked the eclectic mix we heard tonight, and it's just a pity some more punters hadn't lifted their arses from their couches and joined us.. Never mind , their loss.. The folk who were there totally enjoyed themselves for sure. 🤟👏👏🤟.. Shout out as usual to the bar staff, doormen and big Pete on sound (nailed it again bigman 👏👏).... Big Hastie over and out from the place that rocks... NOW it's time to go hame and see what's oan the telly.. 😊😉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
