Unrehearsed, Unstoppable – Vicious Kitten Rock Wadebridge!
We like to keep things professional… most of the time. But in the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll, we decided to throw two brand-new songs into the set—completely unrehearsed. That’s right, no safety net, no warm-up, just vibes. ‘Iris’ by Goo Goo Dolls and ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody’ by Whitney Houston made their Vicious Kitten debut. And, despite the absolute lack of preparation (or maybe because of it?), they went down an absolute storm! Special shoutout to Hannah, who’s been waiting ages to belt out ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody’ on stage—safe to say, she nailed it.
Behind the Kit – A Drummer’s Delight
Meanwhile, in the engine room of the band, Dan brought out his brand-new double kick pedal for its grand debut. You might think that means blast beats and metal mayhem, but fear not—just some tasteful extra punch to keep the grooves driving. It added just the right amount of extra power—subtle, yet effective. Completely unnecessary for Whitney Houston... but it sounded fantastic on our rocked-up version of 'I Need a Hero'! And of course, we did it anyway.
A Crowd That Knows How to Party
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by some lovely familiar faces who had seen us last time and were excited to see us again—which we take as the highest form of flattery. The Swan Hotel in Wadebridge, Cornwall, was packed, the atmosphere electric, and the crowd in full voice. We love a high-energy audience, and Wadebridge delivered once again! The dancefloor was bouncing, the singalongs were borderline deafening, and we even had a few professional-level air guitarists in the front row. It was well worth the little road trip from Plymouth and Tavistock into Cornwall!
Shoutouts & Thank Yous
Massive thanks to the wonderful bar staff for keeping everyone well-hydrated (very important for proper dance moves) and to security for keeping us all in line (which is no small task). You lot were awesome, as always.
To everyone who came down, sang their hearts out, and made it a night to remember—thank you! We can’t wait to be back.
See you next time, Wadebridge!
