It is a blessing and a curse having 15 odd gigs on one night, so I had to pick and choose my favourites on Saturday.
 I’m always interested in seeing new bands perform, so had to take in local modern/ classic style original rock band Jackson E, who were playing at Beaches, April 9.

The bass and guitar duo were filled out by a drum machine thundering in the background.

 I loved the big guitar riffs and solos which ranged from blues to a little two handed Eddie Van Halen style tapping.

 They played a catchy, upbeat first set which combined elements of the Tragically Hip with a lot of other good stuff.
