Holla - it's probably about time I wrote something on here!
So the Fringe starts in exactly 10 days with my epic Rock N Roll band, Do Miss America opening things on the Thursday night, but James has already written about us so onwards and upwards!
FRIDAY NIGHT marks the return of the mighty BROKEN HEARTS CLUB BAND, but this time with a twist. The band will be playing 2 sets, with the second set bringing in a new era as the band makes a transition into a new form, DOWN RENO. This will be a very special night!
SATURDAY kicks off outside at 3pm with DAVE MCKINLEY - local acoustic folky-pop-rock singer songwriter. With 4 albums of material (not to mention the hundreds of unrecorded songs) there's definitely something for everyone. Dave also sports an incredible beard. Unfortunately he is an Arsenal fan, but you can't have everything in life!
Following Dave is CHRIS 'The Man in the Hat' MARTIN - obviously not to be mistaken with that muppet from Coldplay. With a mixture of classy old school blues and stand up (or maybe sit down?) comedy, Chris knows how to entertain a crowd.
More to come tomorrow.
Until then -
Cieran

TD's (Emma) Leaving Do!
The little midget from behind the bar is leaving for Oz in a few weeks, so as such in true Delius fashion we are hosting a big leaving do!

Drinks offers, music, fun times and probability of your favourite bartenders embarrassing themselves by butchering a few songs with the band.
All this on a TUESDAY night.

What a cracking day of sport!
Right then, What a day of Sport, second Ashes Test, first day of the Open, England Women play their French counterparts later on this evening.

Really exciting news as well is that as of tomorrow, SKY SPORTS RETURNS! So come on down Friday night and watch our BULLS take on HULL FC from 8pm.
DELIUS PICKS

Dustin Johnson / Sergio Garcia @ The Open
England Women 2 - 1
Bulls by 4 - 6 points.
Happy Sport

FRINGE FESTIVAL - Featured Band - DO MISS AMERICA
Right then should we start from the beginning, I reckon we should. This year's FRINGE FESTIVAL is opened by the Do Miss America boys, who as close as dammit constitute our very own house band. Our very own Cieran Miller fronts the five piece band from Bradford and come down on THURSDAY 8TH AUGUST to find Americana influenced Country and Blues along with some great covers of Paul Simon, Hall & Oates, Dire Straits, plus much more besides.
The brand new album has just been written, so along with some old favourites, expect exclusive playing of some new material.
The band has its own Facebook and Twitter pages; www.twitter.com/domissamerica
Heres a few links to whet your appetite;
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGFBtUH4w4k
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp7k05nFa9g (Our very own Luke Hardisty made some nice pictures to go with the music, so look at that if you will).
And one from the bar, from when I weren't here, so we can enjoy that together I suppose :)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGHMb9uLSH0
For the last word, I leave it to the lads;
Country - Blues - Americana - Rock N Roll - 5 Piece - Harmony Vocals - Screaming guitar - Blues Piano - Cieran - Danny - Trav - Luke - Rob
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Peace Out.

NOW THEN, BLOGGING WORLD....
Hiya Folks,
James here, thought we'd start up a blog to let you know the latest goings on from your favourite pub/bar/cocktail spot/taproom in Bradford. Plus we'll probably throw up some stories from nights out, and any gossip we may have, along with our latest offers, live sports and events.
Right down to business I suppose, as most of you lovely people will have seen dotted around Facebook / Twitter / Various pubs & clubs in Bradford, we are hosting the FRINGE FESTIVAL again on 8th - 11th August, with four days of amazing music and frivolity.
Please see our Facebook page for more details, but we will be previewing and posting videos of all the artists on this very blog so watch out!
All proceeds are going to two amazing local charities in Yorkshire Air Ambulance and Yorkshire Cancer Research, and we will also be be posting some stuff up on here about the amazing work they do before the festival starts.
Right enough of that...
FOOD?? Yup, we are working very hard to get the famous Delius food back to you guys, and we promise to give you updates ASAP, and also some previews of the BRAND NEW MENU!!!
CONTACT US?? It's true, we have a new pub number which is 01274 39 44 39, and as always the little lion like man AKA Cieran Miller is you guy for music bookings etc!
Date for your diaries is next TUESDAY 23RD JULY, Emma's leaving do with live music from the DO MISS AMERICA lads, however I cannot promise to not get up for a song or two... (Only joking).
Or am I?
Myself and Mr Miller are planning on doing some podcasty bits for the blog in the not too distant future, so make of that what you will.
As always we are on Twitter @deliusbar, and on Facebook - let us know if there's anything you want on the blog, or music / drinks event wise and we'll see what we can do.
Sorry for the essay, love you all.
