    Hi All - just putting this on to advertise my gig in Sunderland this Thursday with my duo Revolver.

    It's in a pub called "Angel's Place" which, I believe, is on Church Street East (just down from Cheers bar I think)

    Be nice if any of you can make it - please introduce yourself. I'm the bald(ish) one - not the one with the long hair - he's called Alan Williamson and he's better than Slash!! (OK maybe not but he's awesome on guitar!)
    Stuff from Fleetwood Mac, Kula Shaker, Floyd, Stones, Beatles, AC/DC and boatloads of others!

    For the record - if anyone is going tonight - we've been told "The heavier the better" so expect Metallica, AC/DC and stuff like that all night!! We start at 8:00

    I think this might be a bar frequented by the local hells angels and biker groups, hence the name.. I will get there if I can, but maybe stuck due to other committments..

    Didn't it used to be called The Bush?

    Or have they moved pubs?

    Yes.. Black Angels were a dodgy bunch in those days.. These days the bike clubs are more likely to be seen raising money for charities..

    I thought Grindon club was shut. Good at one time but never been in for about 10 years now.
