Marstons Sports and Social club – Review
Well what a weekend for TTB, our first visit to the Marstons Club and we were hoping for a good crowd, judging from the Event responses on Facebook, we should at least get a reasonable crowd in. Turning up as usual, me being first to arrive, the rain was quite heavy and one or two of us got a bit lost by relying on our dodgy sat navs for directions, never the less we all finally got there and...
Read MoreThe Old Royal Oak – Review
Last Saturday night we were back to our old haunt in Burton, The Old Royal Oak. It’s been quite a while since we played Burton and what better way to mark our return than to play the Oak. We were expecting a good one, judging from the positive response we had had on our Facebook advertising, with the help of Sue Cutting creating the event and getting a good number of Goings.

Well Friday night saw the good ship Tick Tick Boom sailing off to the Greyhound Inn in Beeston to fill in for a cancelled band after receiving a call on the Monday from our good friend Robert Balmer. The Greyhound has it’s own gear, PA etc so all we needed to take along was our back-line, guitars, the odd drum and our enthusiasm. So down we came, negotiating the coned obstacle course...
Read MoreThe Mile – Review
Tick Tick Boom has not played The Mile in Derby with it’s current line up, and we weren’t sure what to expect being in the student quarter and having had a somewhat fragmented history with regard to live music. The first thing we had to overcome was the parking, some of the guys parked on the pavement to offload the gear whilst others lugged it some distance from the street parking...
