John Otway Big Band
24 February 2012 8:00 PM
Pavilion Arts Centre
Four Four Time 2012
Rock veteran John Otway dubbed himself ‘rock’n’roll’s greatest failure’ after many unsuccessful attempts to produce a second hit single to follow his 1977 classic (Cor Baby, That’s) Really Free with Wild Willy Barrett. However, a mere quarter century later, he was back on Top of The Pops with the wonderful disco pastiche, Bunsen Burner and back in the charts as a birthday present from his adoring and patient fans. More recently, his ‘Beware Of The Flowers Cause I’m Sure They’re Going To Get You Yeah’ was voted the seventh greatest lyric of all time in a BBC poll. Read more about this event … or

Letz Zep
16 March 2012 7:30 PM
Pavilion Arts Centre
Letz Zep is not an exercise in nostalgia, but of revolt against the time, a heart-rending shout against mediocrity and forgetfulness, faithfully recreating the sights and sounds of Led Zeppelin at their awesome best. The band are gathering an international reputation, having been invited to perform, many as headline act, at large festivals in Greece, Italy, France, Spain, Venezuela, Belgium and here in the UK.
