Frederick has a great voice and for tonights set he sang covers of  "Love will tear us apart"  by The Joy Division, "Knocking on heavens door" by Bob Dylan, "Behind blue eyes" by The Who, and two of  their own original songs "Coffee shop blues" and "Like a Storm" by The Metro Men. These guys will be supporting Jamie Murphy and his band Six is Out at Jericho's on the 25th September. Come along for an excellent night out in Launceston

All the bands and musicians were excellent and gave the audience a great night of entertainment.

Mel as usual laid on a massive amount of fabulous food and good night was had by all.
