The Quantum Lounge - 30th July 2006 With comic Wil Anderson performing to a sold-out show upstairs, the Magic Man of Mellotron Madness 'In House' Dan McReed opened the evening with an adeptly articulated alternative show of stand-up & original songs.

Dan was followed by a new QL fave Marni, with her great set of heartfelt ballads. Marni also has recordings available including that of her punk band. (if you're after some Marni music - email: thequantumlounge@gmail.com & we'll hook you up)

Veruschka Buhrmester was next up, making her QL debut with her brilliant back-up guitarist Will. Doing a very tasty set of originals, Verushka was faced with yells of encore! encore! so once again took the stage & performed some great R&B tunes, including a great John Legend cover. It's great to have these top performers join us at QL! To check out more info on Veruschka check out her MySpace : www.myspace.com/veruschkabuhrmester

Dr Quantum followed Veruschka with a couple of his spoken word performances, rounded off nicely with an original rap - complete with Blues Brother sunnies - very New York!

The rock-steady Flaming Galahs were up next showing off some fine riffs & licks and impressed as per usual.

Rex Havoc followed them with a couple of his more obscure songs (can he get any more obscure?) A freak of nature yes, but a very snappy dresser. And with spoon-support from the lovely Leyne, can do no wrong!

The beautiful Mischa was next up with magical renditions of both originals & Bowie covers supported by the 'Galahs and In House Dan, which this reported really loved. More power to Mischa! (The idea of a monthly QL Tribute night looks like a real happening with talent like hers - stay tuned for more info on this new QL night)

We were also treated to a return of QL's resident Opera Singer John Hooper who entertained with deft support by In House Dan.

The night was well rounded off with a performance by Simon's (Dr Quantum's) friend Robert, singing & playing a couple of cool tunes, nicely capped off by Simon joining him to do a Simon original, a real treat for all, but especially for QL regulars to enjoy. Til next time..your in Havoc... Rex.
