The Reverend Posted 2 May 2007 Share Posted 2 May 2007 Reverend and The Makers. Sound good from what i've heard. Anyone else heard much of them? If you go on their website http://www.iamreverend.com/ you can get a few of their tracks off of (i think) an upcoming album. They are releasing a single on the 28th May 'Heavyweight champion of the world'. You may have heard it on socceram. But the version they are releasing is a different one i believe (to the one on socceram/available for download), of which the new vesion can be heard on http://www.myspace.com/reverendmusic . Iv now heard both versions and have to say i am impresed with both. Supported fellow Sheffielders the Arctic Monkeys a few times from what iv heard. Thoughts?

C-man Posted 3 May 2007 Share Posted 3 May 2007 Jon co-wrote Old Yellow Bricks, and was rumoured to have wrote some of the early Arctic tunes. And his brother is the geezer on the front of the Monkeys first album. Heavyweight Champion and Bandits are tunes! Good band, should be going on the 26th.

C-man Posted 27 May 2007 Share Posted 27 May 2007 What a night that was. Only complaint really is that there were 4 support bands. The picks were okay. Verified weren't bad. The Long Weekend were quite good. Ego's were great as usual. The Reverend finally appeared about 11.30 and played an hour set. Kicked off with Miss Brown; everyone went mental for Heavyweight, Bandits, 18.30 and He Said He Loved Me, before they finished with The State of Things. John McClure is one of the best frontmen i've seen Recommend seeing them in the summer. They're playing Reading if anyone is going there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alas, the reverend himself was going on about Northampton... "Played a gig like in Northampton like, n it wa proper shit like." (Blamed it on an ear infection and his mum had to drain them for him) Anyway, he said he will be going back to Northampton and said he will try and put it on for free.

Trumpet Posted 10 October 2007 Share Posted 10 October 2007 He probably used the ears as an excuse then , he did acknowledge he was poor though and said he'll be going back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
