3 sets? 3 SETS!

Yes Rio 5 are back on the road with their new-look show - new songs and a new 3-set format! Unveiled last night (1st March) at The County Hotel, Saltergate, Chesterfield.

From the opening power chords of Ziggy Stardust (by David Bowie) to the closing notes of Gimme Some Lovin' Rio 5 had the audience in the palm of their hands. It's been 10 weeks since their last fix of 70s Rock/Soul and we delivered the goods, we slipped one new song in - Leave Your Hat On by Joe Cocker (from The Full Monty film) which was very well recieved, luckily Dave Stone left his clothes on (shudder at the thought) but we left out 2 other new songs, you'll have to come to the next gig - NEW VENUE ALERT! - at Joplins Bar, Low Pavement, Chesterfield on Fri 14th March. It's the first time we've played here so we need many helping hands to turn out and help us make it a rousing sucess - we need to be supporting live music pubs to keep bands going and to keep the pub trade alive.

Right, I'm off now, got to sort out my Elton John outfit for Eyam Fundraiser, 8th March. Come back soon to see the pictures - it's going to be great!
