"I've always fancied being in a band with 'The' in the title," rasped Andy Page, frontman of The Something? who made their debut at Darley Dale's Square and Compass.
Having seen him and brother Leigh in Glisten a few years ago I was eager to see how his latest project would fair.

Opting to play a mixed bag of covers and originals is nothing new but when you choose slightly obscure numbers I do feel you're onto a winner.

From the seventies we had a tune called The Young Fol", an upbeat affair which I have to say was a new one on me, followed by the self-penned composition, Touch The Sky.

This went down well with the packed house, as did The Killers' Mr Brightside which closed act one in fine style.

After refreshments we had tunes by The Libertines, Kings of Leon and the Human League's Phil Oakley song, "Together in Electric Dreams".

This I've not heard for years and tragically is still going through my head as I write this.

To get me out on a Sunday evening is a challenge. And that's putting it mildly.

The Something? may have missed the odd note and sounded at times a bit too raw, but they more than made up for it with the quality and diversity of songs and euphoric performance.
