On Sunday 15th August Mr Kyps was bustling as people gathered to pay their respects to their late friend Jasper Stephens. The evening’s entertainment was courtesy of 15 local bands and artists including Voodoo Vegas, Western Sand, Si Genaro, Club Le Shark and The Sabres. The result was an astonishing set of rock covers performed by these musicians in various combinations. You can find out more about the night’s set list, full line up and details in our Preview here.

On Saturday 7th August Champions, Bournemouth, played host to The Dorset Rock Online 1st Birthday Bash. Six bands (and Burlesque artist Scarlet De Beau) performed across two stages. Read a review of the night here by Jack Churchill at The Bournemouth Echo. Robert Whetton and Tim Churchill were also on hand and this is what they saw through their lenses…

Wow, that was quite a night… and what an atmosphere! I hope everyone had a good time at our 1st Birthday Bash at Champions! I know we did. A big thank you to The Longest Day, The Neon Tigers, Rapids!, Nion Abeo, The Otherhalf and Western Sand for putting on an awesome show. I think you’ll agree with me that the entertainment was top notch. If you hadn’t already seen some of the bands that performed, I hope they lived up to the expectations we may have built up with our praise over the last year. I hope we’ll have some photos and video from the night soon!
Other than the bands that I’ve already mentioned, I would like to thank everyone involved in making the event what it was. Further thanks goes to:

On Sunday 15th August a community will gather to pay their respects to a much loved friend in the best way they know how – Rock ‘n’ Roll. Mr. Kyps will play host to a very special gig for one Jasper Stephens, who very sadly passed away earlier this year. Jasper had many friends in the local Rock (or as he would call it RAWK) scene and played a very active part, including running the Voodoo Vegas Facebook fan page.
More than eleven local bands will take to the stage in various combinations (think of the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert) to perform some of Jasper’s favourite tracks, including songs from Aerosmith, Metallica, Queen, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Dio, Audioslave and Guns ‘n’ Roses.
