Tom Sawyer Promotions presents - TOM SAWYER: THE ULTIMATE RUSH TRIBUTE EXPERIENCE

I know, I know.... it's been a long time since I posted some news up about the new Rush trib!

Well, despite 2011 having been one of the busiest years ever for me I've somehow managed to attend regular rehearsals over the last few months and all of a sudden it's now only a matter of days before we go out live.

We're kicking things off with a gig at The Office in South Shields this Saturday 25th June.

It's been a while since I played at The Office which is a venue that has always managed to attract a good crowd for Rush tribs in the past so I'm really looking forward to it and the feedback has been good.

In my last post (which was 6 months ago, oops!) I said we were coming back as Tom Sawyer but in hindsight we decided that a new name was in order.

Being a 100% North East based band (for the first time in about 5 years!) and to reflect the fact that this is a fun time band not taking things too seriously we've settled on 'Whey Aye Zed' for a monicker.

We have several gigs in the pipeline at present... details to follow... so we hope you can make it along.

Saturday's gig at The Office is free entry in the downstairs room.

We'll be playing approx 2 hours worth of awesome Rush songs for your entertainment. Things should be starting around 9pm.

See you there.
