Did I mention I'd been on Eggheads?
For anyone living in the States and who remembers the great Middleton band, The Chameleons (fronted by Mark Burgess, City fan and one time ticket office employee!) well 'Chameleons vox' is Mark and drummer John Lever with members of the band Bushart and they are touring the States this month.

Definately worth going to see.

Definitely not worth going to see.

The Chameleons were all about the guitar sound of Dave and Reg - without them it's not the Chameleons.

Mark Burgess is destroying the legacy of this fantastic band.
 
Playing the Ruby Lounge and Camden Lock in December I think.
Danbert, of course its not exactly the same, but its still a decent show. Any chance to hear this music live is a bonus.

This was a different touring band in the states, some young American lads who are huge Chameleons fans. They were a pretty fierce unit.
 
We had a top night in a Madrid club en route to Valencia last week and the DJ played everything we asked for. Some obscure stuff like Violet Femmes etc. It was like the The Venue on Fridays.

The two songs above were asked for, but he didn't have.

Yes it's not the Chameleons. That's why they are called Chameleons vox.

Saw them at the Ruby Lounge a few months back and it was sold out - like it has already sold out for the Xmas show.
I'll be there in Boston in 2 weeks time. Really looking forward to it
 
My mate Bowler (Ray) is the bassist in vox. And my mate of over 30 years Foxy (Ste) is the lead guitarist (ex-vox) in the US tour support band 'Black Swan Lane'. Not really my thing but they do sound top live.

Looking forward to having a drink with him :)
