The Lemonheads’ Evan Dando to play Wrexham

Ben — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 13:42:05 +0000

Evan Dando, the legendary frontman of American alternative rock band The Lemonheads, will be playing at Central Station, Wrexham on Thursday 7 August.

Along with schoolfriend Ben Deily, Dando formed The Lemonheads in Boston USA circa 1986 and achieved cult status after releasing their 1992 album ‘It’s a Shame about Ray’. They split up in 1997 following Dando’s crack cocaine addiction which saw him lose his voice… and his head. They played their final together gig at Reading Festival.

Following the bands demise, Dando continued with solo material until 2005 when he decided to bring The Lemonheads back, albeit with only himself from the original line-up. They are set to release their 9th studio album this year.

Tickets for the show are £10 and are available from seetickets.com (link) or in person at Yales Cafe Bar, Wrexham.

The Old Swan back in August

Ben — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 13:37:46 +0000

According to the brewery, Hyde’s, who own the venue:

“Due to financial instabilities the site has had no alternative but to close. We are about to appoint a new couple to the site and are planning a subtle face-lift and the new tenants will be retaining the live music theme although with a broader spectrum.

We will be re-launching the site with a mini beer festival and hope it will open by the beginning of August”.

So, straight from the horses mouth, The Old Swan will return in August and will still have live music there, albeit a broader spectrum – please no Salsa themed covers bands. That would be terrible.
