    Well isn't that just typical of the Wisbech music scene? Nothing doing!

    I'm a singer who's fronted bands in Bristol and Birmingham for the last 20+ years. I moved up here almost two years ago and since then have been trying to find any sort of band to sing with. Ok, so I'm getting on a bit now (still younger than Madonna though) but I still scrub up well and have an impressive CV and some say an outstanding voice with a 3 octave range.  I knew it wouldn't be easy to find a rock or blues band to sing with up here, but it seems Wisbech has absolutely no music scene whatsoever, apart from a few youngsters who, from what I've seen, would be lucky to get a gig at all in a city where competition is much greater.  Even attempts to get something together with bands from further afield have come to nothing - timewasters all.

    Well, I give up. I'm off to buy a karaoke machine.

    If you are more aware than others on the music scene in Wisbech, please feel free to add anything that you wish. I see that you say there is not much of a music scene here, I find this is true, a lot of it is people in their teen years or twenties trying to live the dream, but it takes a lot of dedication and talent to do it and a lot of them just do not have the commitment.

    I love karaoke!
