The Hustle, Blues Band

Next Gig - Wednesday 13^th June
The John'O'Gaunt - Lancaster.

The regular spot down at the John'O'Gaunt is sure to be packed so if you want to get a good spot get ther early.. For the last four gigs the band have played with a least one band member missing, but all should be present for this gig and they are really up for it, so expect a storming night.

Last Gig - Saturday 9th June
The Mariners - Bowness
The foot and mouth epidemic has made life very difficult for those trying to make a living in the Lake District - The Mariners is no exception. Officially the crisis is coming to an end and today many areas of the Lake District were open to the public for the first time since the outbreak began. Therefore it was very pleasing to see a good crowd here this evening enjoying a powerful performance from The Hustle. Thanks to Super Sub Steve Smith for doing the brass bits all on his own tonight (Storming Sax) - Steve Wren has just got back from a holiday in Scotland and is so relaxed that he managed to bring the wrong keyboard but still hit all the right notes.

A gig not to miss- 22nd of June
Kendal Leisure Center
Dr. Feelgood are being supported by local bands The Hustle, Tin Pan Alley and The Picasso Bros... A date not to be missed.

The latest news on this sites development

I have linked the site to a couple of Blues webrings through Yahoo - the links are on the front page - Welcome to any visitors that have come through this route. These link into other Blues sites and it is well worth taking a look to see what they have to offer.

Thanks to all those people who are signing in the guest book, it is good to know that you are out there and also to those taking the trouble to use the contact form to suggest improvements.

Music is what this site is about, and it is going to get some soon I promise. Unfortunately my computer is so old and pushed to the limit that it cannot rip tracks from the CD to MP3 files - I am having to rely on an alternative source for this. Keep coming back and checking.
Meanwhile here is a sample:

- More content!! Mike has issued the band with its home work - and from this we should be able to produce more comprehensive profiles of the band.
- We want to create links to related web sites so if you have any suggestions let us know via the feedback form.
- I have worked on the submission of the site to the search engines and the site is starting to be picked up. Google and Yahoo will find the site on their first page if you tyoe in: the hustle blues band ... The aim is to get a good ranking on: the hustle. - this will take a little more work and time but I am confident of achieving this.
