With the first night of the tour at (hot n' sweaty) Fibbers in York being a roaring success, it was time to move on to Oxford.
The Bullingdon, being a Pub venue, situated just around the corner from Oxford's Academy - but I know which venue all the crowds flocked to for a guaranteed good night out - The Bullingdon of course to witness the second instalment of the rockin' new set by Twisted Wheel.
A new set - straight into 'We Are Us', (the usual last song ) got the crowd well and truely going, followed by 'Racket' and 'Bad Candy' set the pace for the fast and furious night of mayhem.
Set List
'We Are Us'
'Racket'
'Bad Candy'

'Bouncing Bomb' went down a storm with the whole place singing along. Adam and Jonny kept the audience's attention with their ad lib jam session when a bass guitar cable became slightly difficult, but they soon were storming into the fantastic 'Bang of the Beat'. Next up, 'Lucy The Castle' and the fantastic 'Turnaround' where alot of the audience obviously new the song and just went for it in a big way! Last up, was, 'You Stole The Sun' which saw the whole place irrupt.
It was a fantastic gig,it was plain to see that everyone enjoyed themselves.. now, roll on Derby.....

Twisted Wheel evolved from The Children (Jonny, Rick, Ben & Chris Carcamo & Ronnie )Jonny and Rick knew drummer Adam Clarke from school, but it wasn’t until a meeting at Leeds Festival one year that the three became close friends.
Fast forward to Christmas time 2006 and the lads were putting the wheels in motion to do something serious. Come Jannuary and the band started jamming together, before playing their debut gig after just four rehearsals. Half a year later there was much label interest and a loads of bands wanting them as a support act.
In 2007 Twisted Wheel won ' Xfm's Uploaded Award' from Clint Boon on his music response show - a week earlier they'd signed their record deal with Columbia.
