Vintage Sixties Live
'60s Live at The Vic'

Were you part of the North East Clubland Rhythm Group scene in the Sixties? Do you remember The Downbeats, The Zephyrs, The Panthers, The Gringos or any of the thousands of other groups who populated the working men’s club scene in the area around this time?   ... then read on - this concerns you!

We are bringing together many semi-pro local musicians and singers who worked the North East Working Men's Club circuit during the Sixties to meet and swap stories, songs and pictures. Tudhoe Victory Club, on the outskirts of Spennymoor, Co.Durham, have kindly donated the use of their excellent Concert Room on the second Thursday in every month.
The evenings are intended to be very informal - providing an opportunity not only for the working artistes of our era to perform as we did back then but also for performers of all ages to strut their stuff to a live backing and in front of a live audience. Free amplification and PA equipment will be provided!

Vrienden van the Sixties Here's a Dutch site that organises some great Sixties gigs in the Eindhoven region of south east Holland, so if you're around the area, take a look to see what's happening! Not only are Hennie, Leo and Cees 'survivors' of the Sixties who are keeping Sixties music alive, they are also supporting a great cause - KIKA - a Dutch charity helping children with cancer.
They currently organise about 10 shows a year in their region.

With their potent musical cocktail of rock and roll, merseybeat, classic pop and rockabilly, strong vocals and dynamic live show, they offer something to dance to, something to listen to, and something to watch.
