Where's the beer and where's the music?

The beer was inThe Plimmy and they don't have music, you should be able to work out where I took it

I wondered where the thread was!

Tonight, a starter of Marmalade Porter in the pub, which was lovely. I should've paid more attention to the Brewery, And V&C

And this Indie gem was my most played song of last year.

And I do like a vintage car

Reino de la Vina (£11 for 2 bottles from Morrisions .... ridiculous).

First off, Mr Robochrist himself, a Sister of Mercy, and a Nameless Ghoull from Ghost .... as well as being a Wildheart and an Ugly Kid Joe-ist.

Love Chris

I was off the drink whilst I had the chest infection and decided it wouldn't be a bad thing if I changed it to Dry January. My drink recently has been Pepsi Max, it's one of the soft drinks that was left over from Christmas.




Music, I bought myself ELO - A New World Record and The Who - Meaty, Beaty Big & Bouncy this week and have been given them a listen. My first choice is from The Who.

I asked the Mrs to get me some beers in, and she asked which ones? I said, “you know what I like..Poretti, Moretti, Peroni, Staro….whatever you think, honey”

She’s a keeper.


And musically, I’m reminded how weak I am ( and we all are)

Found my self with an hour to kill tonight in Eaglescliffe. Went for a wonder don’t know the place apart from the pot and glass pub I’ve heard about. Found it, nipped in for a pint and loved it. Wish that was my local. About six cask ales on and I enjoyed a great Abbot

Just thought I’d let you all know what passes as a highlight of my week.

Any other little gems of pubs I need to go to. Not a Middlesbrough native so all suggestions greatly appreciated

Did anyone get back to you on this Lee?

I am sure there are plenty of good folk in the Yarm and Stockton area who frequent this board that can point you in the right direction.

I can see what you've done there

It's Redcar kid not far from The Stray cafe

 

[HarryVegas]

One of my absolute faves.

I tend to come over all mouthy and 'Up the Ra!' every time I hear it.

No they didn’t. I don’t often find myself that side of the river. Any recommendations for all off Teesside happily received

The man is an absolute star. Of course, I forgot to mention his main band, Eureka Machines.
He kept the fact that he was Aether in Ghost a secret for 5 years ... the little tinker.

Lee, I have put a message on the board under Pub Help and hopefully we get some replies on that.

The one I would recommend is The Chapel. I love this place and it always have a good selection of ales. The owner is a good friend of my eldest son.

Seconded. A great pub and also the best folk club in the region last Friday of the month.

A bit of a diversion here. This is a great interview with Chris Catalyst about being a jobbing muscian .... especially one with such a varied CV. A really great insight into the seat of your pants nature of that lifestyle. Some good music links in there too. If nothing else, watch the Ghost guitar battle ... pretty funny.

“I got the call saying there was a band looking for a player. I said yes before even asking which band it was. Then I got told it was Ghost”: Former Nameless Ghoul Chris Catalyst breaks cover about his time in Tobias Forge’s epic metal project

The UK session guitarist went from marathon tours with Sisters of Mercy and Ugly Kid Joe to massive arena shows with Ghost. He reveals what it takes to cut it in one of metal’s biggest bands, why Noel Gallagher has one of his all-time favorite guitar tones, and how a love of Kempers, hooks and...

And while I'm in a militant, nicely woke mood ...

I never thought I would hear this but I felt very smug today thanks to Gary Lineker. I was at my dad's and my younger brother arrived and we were just generally chatting and he says we live in a 'woke society'. My dad asked what woke meant and I replied "Someone with conscience and shows empathy to others". It shot the wind out of my brother's sails and I just sat there smiling inwardly whilst thanking Gary Lineker.
