Eltham Palace… is a ‘venue’. I mean, wow! It really is something else… from the bond-villain style art deco round room, to the imposing great Hall where Henry and Elizabeth probably presided over court. Last night, The Love Junkies plus performed to a ruby wedding crowd at one of London’s finest heritage sites. Souped up, turbo […]

Shepherd Neame Brewery, Faversham. A rescheduled Christmas party, a perfect venue plus ‘The Love Junkies’. Certainly, there’s no shortage of beer here. In fact we’ll wager that we’d have all been able to get free top-ups all night… that is if we hadn’t had to work. Dave opted for the Master Brew, Andee P, taking […]
Tonight’s gig saw The Love Junkies in the depth of the Hertfordshire countryside in the (presumed) sleepy village of Ashwell. After a quick straw poll, we all agreed that we hadn’t played in a village hall for many a long year. Whilst this fact was not deemed to be hazardous to our existence as musicians, […]
One of the delights of this job is that you occasionally get to play weird and wonderful venues. Cue, Madame Tussauds this Thurs 7th October. This was a gig through agents Prelude and a ‘slap on the back’ type party for a company called Sodexo (we think). We’d played the same event for them last […]

We’ve been here before – March 2007 if memory serves. Templeton, Roehampton. A Sunday night in May before the Bank Holiday. A multi roomed, multi purpose venue, good for weddings, lots of rooms with quirky nooks and crannies. Bands get put in the Langdale room, which is for all intents a very large sitting room with a […]
I wouldn’t say it’s been a harsh winter gig-wise but January and February have been a bit quiet on the wedding front so it was nice to get back into the swing of it again with Charlotte and John’s wedding at Brocket Hall. For couples worried about their guests feet during dancing, here’s an idea. […]
Just what is it about bass players and pantomimes? Like proverbial moths, fluttering over to a naked candle they are all drawn by the lure of regular Christmas work. ’tis the season, and all that we suppose. This is all very nice for the bassist, oh yes, nice sit down in the pit, plundering bass […]
The first website we produced for The Love Junkies was back in 2002. It was a small affair which fitted nicely into a 640×480 pixel screen. It was red, had a nice logo and got to the point. The point of course, that we are a great band who should be hired by you – the […]
