SimonH Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 So this is weird. I'm in a covers band based in Peterborough called High Rollers - four-piece, usual rock/pop/disco covers. Been playing bass for a year and a half, playing guitar for a lot longer (funny how things turn out; shoulda played four strings all along). Anyway, this Friday - as in tomorrow night - we've managed to get ourselves onto the bill at Triumph Live, a ma-hoosive two-wheeled party at Mallory Park race circuit between Leicester and Hinckley. It's an annual knees-up for Triumph, the bike manufacturer, who are currently enjoying massive worldwide sales success. Their comeback against the Japanese bike factories is an amazing story of entrepreneurial flair and dedication - British engineering at its best. So they have this big festival every year at Mallory, and this year it's headlined by Reef on Friday and the Kaiser Chiefs on Saturday. And, somehow (don't ask), High Rollers are opening the show. And then playing again in the paddock at 11.00pm. I mention this apropos of nothing at all (copyright A Partridge) other than... IT'S REALLY, REALLY COOL! Thank you.
