ROCK n ROLL with<br />
BOPPIN DARRIN<br />
November already!! Soon be Christmas,<br />
most of the shops are decorated<br />
up and tickets for Christmas and New<br />
Year parties are going quick, so don’t<br />
get left out in the cold, get your tickets<br />
for some great nights out, meanwhile<br />
this month keep happy and warm but<br />
most of all have fun.<br />
One of the great pioneers of rock n roll<br />
was of course, and still is, Jerry Lee<br />
Lewis, some know him as “The Killer”.<br />
Born in Louisiana 29th September 1935,<br />
he grew up listening to a variety of music<br />
from Boogie, Country, Blues and<br />
Gospel which all had an impact on him,<br />
so much so that he seemed to put them<br />
all into a bag, give it a good shake then<br />
what came out was the Jerry Lee Lewis<br />
sound. Jerry was just 8 years old when<br />
his parents went into debt to buy him a<br />
Stark upright piano, well there was no<br />
face book or PS3’s in them days!! Jerry<br />
spent most of his time playing the piano,<br />
it wasn’t long before he had mastered<br />
it, and what a talent he had. Jerry<br />
see’s it as his gift from God. It was 1956<br />
Jerry took his talent to Memphis after<br />
reading a story about Elvis’s road to<br />
stardom, once Sam Phillips had heard<br />
him play that was it, tapes turned into<br />
records, records being turned into<br />
cash, it was 1957 when the killer’s first<br />
track hit the charts “Whole Lotta Shakin”<br />
soon backed up by “Great Balls of<br />
Fire” another hit record, now touring<br />
and becoming one of the biggest stars,<br />
another track release “Breathless”<br />
nothing could go wrong for him on tour<br />
<strong>NOVEMBER</strong> ‘10 3<br />
to Britain. Jerry Lee Lewis heading to be<br />
a top rock n roll star, then the British<br />
press found out “Jerry Lee Lewis married<br />
to his 13 year old cousin.” The tour<br />
got cancelled and from getting £10,000<br />
a night he went back to £250 a night if<br />
he was lucky....<br />
Still driving along the rocky road, 1961<br />
saw him starting to get some hits again,<br />
not top 10 hits but good enough to get<br />
into the charts, he carried on rockin and<br />
is still rockin somewhere today with his<br />
piano..... Jerry Lee Lewis once said<br />
“When they look back on me I want<br />
them to remember me, not for my wife’s,<br />
although I’ve had a few, and certainly<br />
not for any mansion or high living, money<br />
I made and spent, I want them to<br />
remember me simply for my music”<br />
Keep rockin Jerry Lee Lewis..............<br />

well tanked up with water (I’m assuming<br />
Radio 4 ‘The Now Show’ will know that<br />
it was only water)<br />
Mitch is a regular contributor of the<br />
This was a show that deserved a bigger<br />
show since 1999 and BBC 2’s ‘It’s Been<br />
stage and larger audience, the place<br />
A Bad Week’ since 2000. He is of <strong>Live</strong>rpudlian<br />

Benn also won the best New Comedian www.mitchbenn.com<br />
competition @ The Glastonbury Festival<br />
in 1995 which was the start of the<br />
many awards he has won since.<br />
Mitch Benn & The Distractions have<br />
been on tour since the 11th September<br />
this year, which stated at The Cornerstone<br />
in Didcot, they played the South<br />
Street Arts Centre, Reading on September<br />
30th and October 1st before appearing<br />
at The Central Studio on the 2nd<br />
October. I had not been to an event at<br />
Central Studio for about 16 years, and<br />
was presently surprised at how it had<br />
changed and they had created a more<br />
intermit setting with blue as the colour.<br />
Mitch came on with his Distractions<br />
bass player Kirsty Newton, who played<br />
keyboard as well, and a drummer playing<br />
a modern electronic kit, which he<br />
really did handle well, both excellent<br />
musicians. From the introduction<br />
through to the end of the first half, Mitch<br />
entertained, this guy is so quick and CENTRAL STUDIOS<br />
clever, not forgetting fun and funny!! As Central Studio’s is a small theatre situated<br />
on the campus of Queen Mary’s<br />
they ended the first half Mitch said give<br />
me some current topic’s and I will during<br />
the break work out a song for the Not the easiest place to find!! And when<br />
College, Cliddesden Road,Basingstoke.<br />
second half, which when they reappeared<br />
had, played setting the second easy to find the way out of the car park!!<br />
dark and tipping down with rain not so<br />
half as fast and entertaining as the first. Nice modern theatre, comfortable seating,<br />
nice intimate setting<br />
I really enjoyed this evening which involved<br />
every aspect of life today, with<br />
