Starting University and looking for a band |
|
If you are starting University in the North East and looking for a band to play with you will be very welcome at Westoe, we are flexible and will make a seat for you whatever you play. We'll even pick you up from the nearest Metro station and our Chairman will buy you a pint (or three). |

From Tuesday 31st August Westoe Band will be rehearsing in the Harton and Westoe Miners' Welfare club. The band has its own room for storage and will be using upstairs function room for playing. This move restores the strong links between the band and its colliery origins. As the band prepares for its centenary year in 2011 this improvement in facilities will be highly beneficial. For the past few years the band has been using a Church Hall in Jarrow without any nearby storage for music. |
