27th September, 2008 - The Cellars - Eastney We had not seen the Trevor John Band for some time and went along on Saturday 27th September to the Eastney Cellars, along with various members of our family and lots of friends. We always have a great evening when we see them and have been following them for quite a number of years!
The pub, an intimate venue,
was packed and on this particular night the band were
superb! A friend remarked that they were "awesome" and
they were. They did Pink Floyd numbers which were
outstanding with "Trevor on Guitar" and Trevor John's
voice was as pure as it always is! "All along the Watch
Tower" was brilliant and they played a lot of our old
favorites and some new ones too.
The crowd were unwilling to let them go and they played three encores and must have been exhausted at the end! Thanks also to Dave on bass and the drummer Martin who were superb. I can't remember when we enjoyed a band so much and can't wait to see them back at the Cellars again on Saturday 29th November.
Carole and Pete Bannister
and a lot of other
Bannisters and friends too!

...The band turned out to be one of the best I have ever
heard including the many professional bands I have seen! The band was
formed just over four years ago. Trevor John was a soloist at the time.
Trevor Parsons (Lead Guitar), Jez Shipton (Lead Guitar/Keyboard) and
Dave Warwick (Bass Guitar) had their own band called "The Rock Bottom
Blues Band". Drummer Simon Gray was in a band called "Annie Hates
Cordial" who were Portsmouth "Battle of the Bands" winners...
...If you have not heard the Trevor John Band perform,
I would seriously suggest it. The whole performance could be described
as faultless. Trevor John's voice could knock spots off some of the
singers the band did cover versions of. The guitarists were brilliant
and the drummer played with such energy if made you feel faint... |

...He's been a soloist for six years and
previously was a member of the US rock band Pegasus. It was with them
that he performed in the Singapore version of Live Aid. Music is in this
family and he taught himself the guitar while in the army regulars of
this home country Singapore. Now Trevor has his own following and enjoys
playing in more relaxed venues. "Those that want to hear will hear..."
Trevor has his heart in music... |

...Trevor John is in fact one man as well as being a
band: how profound!... ...Trevor's voice was
somewhere between Paul Simon and Mark Owen, which isn't too surprising
as I found out that Trevor was a big fan of Paul Simon as well as James
Taylor and Neil Young... |
