A triple threat of ‘80’s inspired rock hit the Fleece in Bristol tonight, starting with Welsh rocklet Chez Kane, she is bringing the Cher vibes with her impressive outfit and with vocals ten times her own size. Song after song of inspired by the decade of decadence, she is really getting things started.
The already heaving crowd are now treated to some melodic rock from Gothenburg’s Art Nation, showing the Swede’s really know how to do it right. Having played with Europe, Twisted Sister and Dokken, they have some experience under their winged shoulders. They’re putting on a great show and whetting the appetite for what’s coming.
They’ve understood the assignment – they know the audience wants something more than the everyday and what they’re offering is beyond spectacular. Kenny’s childlike playfulness adds a sense of wholesomeness to proceedings. He’s beaming throughout but with a devilish twinkle in his eye. This is like a green musical smoothie that’s been spiked with rock ‘n’ roll tequila.
They are absolutely keeping rock alive and well, as cliched as it is to say. This is honed talent, years of experience equalling a live show that stands up as good as any recording.
The set list ranges from ‘Dangerous Ground’ and ‘Disaster’ just crying out to be stadium-bound, to ‘Back to the Rhythm’ and ‘Beg, Beg, Beg’ that have the crowd chanting along.
In the words of drummer Don crash – “this ain’t no disco man, this is rock n roll. Turned all the way up to 11.”
