The Beat That Can't Be Beat

Hi, well what a carry on! a protest single CD is to be released on international download of a song called 'The Wall'.
Recorded by 'The Mathew Street Banned'; a group featuring a number of top Mersey Beat musicians including Shooter's lead vocalist and guitarist Keith Hubbard, the protest song refers to the names of Merseybeat bands on Liverpools Mathew Street wall. The protest has caused much heated debate. Aimed at the lack of a designated Mersey Beat stage at this years Mathew Street Festival. The song and the protest was aired last Saturday morning on Radio Merseyside's Billy Butler show. The discussion was, to say the least, a little heated. To hear the debate and to follow the progress of the protest, visit the Liverpool Beat web site.

Shooter are again experiencing a change of personnel; Phil Chittick has left and is to be replaced by returning drummer Jeff Walker. Jeff will rejoin the band for gigs at the end of July and onwards. In the meantime Tommy Limb from Ricky Gleason and The Topspots has been standing in for gigs at Ryland's in Warrington, Seacroft Holiday Park in Hemsby Grt Yarmouth and Flixton Ex-serviceman's Club Manchester. Tommy is to deputise until the end of July and we thank him for his help.
Mentioning the Topspots, we wish Bass player Kel Harrison; who has just had a knee replacement, and his wife Kathy, who has undergone treatment for her eye's, a quick recovery, our thoughts are with them.
Please check out the protest site and we look forward to seeing you sometime on the road.
Keep It Live.
