I can't remember Def Leppard playing at the fusion as a lifelong metal fan I would have remembered that

Def Leppard played at Fusion in Chesterfield on the 30th August, 1979

As someone with no remote affiliation I have to say Kai Undrell from Chesterfield should be much bigger imo

I have a big passion for music and his 'Can of Worms' has been a regular on my playlist since there was a post on here about him what feels like years ago... just been shocked to see it has less than 10,000 listens on spotify... so much talent never gets the recognition it deserves it's a shame. Give it a listen if you have a sec.

Thanks for the tip. On my playlist now.

And the legend that was Brian the Singing Miner, surely he counts?

Hi everyone,

Sorry to crash the Spireite Debate, but the not-so-tenuous footie connection is having the absolute banger from the 1997 FA Cup run on there - "We Can Build Our Dreams" by Danny Charity, and performed by the CFC Players (including Dychey, Kev Davies, Jamie Hewitt, Andy Morris et al) and Kaught in the Akt.

We're holding a FREE launch party at Real Time Music (Marsden St, just off Saltergate) tomorrow (Sunday 8th December) from 3-7pm, with a listening party, a few live performances and interviews with musicians and leading proponents of the Town's music scene over the years.

There's a 40-page booklet with a double CD pack in the back, but we'll also be releasing it on flash drive, vinyl and Bandcamp next week, and CFC have kindly said they'll stock it in the Club Shop as of next week.

Both directors of S40time C.I.C are massive Spireites, Season Ticket Holders, and love the Club to our very bones!!

Included on this first release is music by The Thompson Twins, Mybe, The Dazy Age, Shape of the Rain, Take the Seven, Fixer, TRASH, Worm, The Spasms, The Bland, Ruberlaris and many, many more...

Hope to see some of you there...



Aaron

Look forward to reading it mate
