THE DIRT - UK'S LEADING TRIBUTE TO MOTLEY CRUE

THE DIRT IS THE UK'S LEADING TRIBUTE TO MOTLEY CRUE, A TALENTED MIX OF RESPECTED AND EXPERIENCED ROCK MUSICIANS WITH MANY YEARS EXPERIENCE UNDER THEIR BELTS, WHO SHARE A COLLECTIVE LOVE AND PASSION FOR THE MUSIC OF MOTLEY CRUE. THE DIRT WAS FOUNDED BY THE 'MICK MARS' OF THE BAND, JAMES ARDIN - GUITARIST, BASSIST AND HUGE MOTLEY FAN FOR ALMOST 30 YEARS. JAMES'S DIVERSE MUSIC CAREER SPANNING SOME 20 YEARS HAS SEEN HIM WORK WITH SOME GREAT PEOPLE, FROM PLAYING BASS IN 'GILT' ALONGSIDE SIMON BOWLEY AND GARY LOKER FROM 'EDDIE AND THE HOTRODS', TO PLAYING LEAD GUITAR IN SLEAZY ROCK BAND 'DIRTY LITTLE ROCKSTAR'. IT IS RARE TO HEAR 'THE MARS' PLAYED WELL BUT THIS SELF-TAUGHT, OLD SCHOOL MUSICIAN HAS NAILED IT. HE IS JOINED BY KEVIN 'KIK' WOODARD, A PROFESSIONAL DRUMMER WELL KNOWN AND RESPECTED ON THE CIRCUIT FROM HIS MANY YEARS PLAYING WITH BANDS SUCH AS 'PLANET OF WOMEN', 'TOXIC TWINS' (TOP AEROSMITH TRIBUTE)AND 'HIGH VOLTAGE' (TOP AC/DC TRIBUTE). AN AWESOME POWERFUL DRUMMER WITH GREAT TECHNICAL ABILITY, KEVIN REALLY IS THE ULTIMATE TOMMY LEE. THE 'SIXX' OF THE BAND COMES IN THE SHAPE OF THE AMAZING MARTY 'SMARTFELLA' DICKSON, ONE HELL OF A NIKKI WHO'S IMPRESSIVE MUSIC CAREER ALSO SPANS MANY YEARS THAT HAS SEEN HIM PLAY IN BANDS SUCH AS 'DRUGDEALER CHEERLEADER' AND 'HOPE AND GLORY', BUT IT WAS THE FOUR YEARS SPENT IN 'ROXOFF' ALONGSIDE THE EX-TIGERTAILZ DRUMMER ACE FINCHUM THAT HE CREDITS AS MAKING HIM INTO THE DRUMMER HE IS TODAY. AFTER SEARCHING HIGH AND LOW FOR THEIR VINCE THEY FOUND HIM IN THE SHAPE OF ROB ANGELICO, SINGER-SONGWRITER AND TALENTED UP AND COMING FRONTMAN OF 'GARRISON FINISH'. ROB'S STUNNING VOCAL ABILITY AND STAGE PRESENCE MAKE HIM THE PERFECT VINCE NEIL. 'THE DIRT' BRING THEIR OWN UNIQUE APPROACH TO THE MUSIC OF THE CRUE, PLAYING A FULL ON ROCK SHOW THAT INCLUDES ALL THE CRUE'S GREATEST EPIC TRACKS MIXED IN WITH RARE GEMS FOR THE DIE-HARD FAN, PLAYED WITH EFFORTLESS NOTE FOR NOTE PRECISION, MOTLEY FANS OLD AND NEW ARE PROMISED A NIGHT TO REMEMBER.
