Click here to make your own!Dropstone at the Frequently in Swindon Event in the town centre taken by Puttyfoot Photography - April 08 Dropstone at The Bell in Swindon - March 08 "Last night I was knocked off my feet. A great set with some cracking and varied songs. Excellent musicians and a great bunch of guys. I for one will certainly be going to their next gig" "All 3 bands were definitely worth seeing with a nice increment of 'slickness' towards Dropstone who I'd not seen before but was very impressed with" "Dropstone were outstanding" "Dropstone - Wow what a band ! loved it and will certainly look out for them again. Nice bunch of guys too" "Fantastic Image and very entertaining- the singer is in a league of his own " "Very entertaining and professional- the singer knows how to perform with style" "Blending streams of rock music from every quarter, Dropstone mix up punk with funk, classic rock with southern boogie, rhythm and blues with indie. Add that to a front man that is either a consumate actor or is missing his medication and you have a very original act." "I was mightily impressed, the guitarists had so much energy it was awesome" "the lead singer rendered me speechless, his performance was mesmerising. You can see the acting ability coming out in the performance. It makes the vocals so full of feeling. " "We were gobsmacked by the performance and you certainly did not keep us wanting. " "gritty indie rock guitar sound that will seduce your ears like a teenage lolita who has just had a crate of alcopops" "Dropstone's style is fantastically varied - a hard rock element at its base but with plenty of screeching guitar solos and a technical ability that surpasses most other bands in that genre...and were full deserving of their encore at the end." "A most entertaining and talented up and coming band with a unique sound and performance by front man Ben leaves no doubt that this band is on the up" Although we have lots of friends we do take the time to reply to all messages and comments so we would love to hear from you...and we will get back to you. Thanks, and we hope to see you at one of our shows. |
