The Hooters
Way back at the start of the 1980s it was that the story of THE HOOTERS had its start. After a time filled with playing mostly local clubs which of course was to change with their debut album ‘Amore’ becoming such a success. Holding such early hits as ‘All You Zombies’ and ‘Hanging On A Heartbeat’ it was safe to say the band was tipped for it and the second album ‘Nervous Night’ becoming a million seller firmly underpinned that.

Dark Decadence Tour 2011: Hardcore Superstar, The 69 Eyes, Crash Diet
For fans of heavy Scandinavian metal there’s a real treat coming up with the Dark Decadence tour 2011 where 3 bands from Sweden and Finland are coming together, all indulging in different facets of the genre. The first one being HARDCORE SUPERSTAR, playing a bastard kind of music you won’t get to hear anywhere else. However, for the guys from Gothenburg it is absolutely no biggie mixing Sleaze Rock with Thrash Metal and throwing in cover versions ranging from THE WHO over ALICE COOPER over to INXS for good measure.
