20.12.2024 - Tent/Chris Goodman - Three Tanners Bank, North Shields


Was persuaded by some work mates to come down to this gig as one of the bands playing was a colleague's son's band.

Didn't want to at first as it was the last Friday before Christmas, a.k.a. Black Eye Friday and had plans the next day with a mate, though went as it felt like not many people from work wanted to go and think Dianne wanted everyone to see her son's band play.

Three Tanners Bank is a nice pub, do some banging pizzas there and everyone is quite chill so rarely any arseholes or bother.

The gig space is upstairs, probably one of the steepest set of stairs ever to get up to and down even if sober!

Fairly decent space to move around in so don't feel too squashed in unlike across the road at the Engine Room.

First on was Chris Goodman, a local musician doing a number of acoustic songs and covers. Thought it was alright, only problem I had was it felt like the sound wasn't loud enough as way too many people talking over him which was a bit crap like!

Tent is a four-piece alt-rock band from Northumberland.

Not sure how long they have been going but have been gigging around a lot and are very competent players.

Decent loud rock group that will be one to watch in the future.

Didn't stay to watch the last band, These Are Your Friends as I went to catch the last bus home.
