With the likes of Young Runaways, Garfield Mayor, Black Fangs, Idle Playthings, Tempting Rosie, OST, Arabella and Man Antique competing for the live stage, who will be the deserved champs in 2 weeks time.

As an eighties child I’m really excited about the opening line up for Friday! It’s going to be a nostalgic neon themed evening and I’ve heard on the grapevine that there will be spot prizes on the night for the best fancy dressed. Speaking of fancy dress if you’re short of a fluoro legwarmer or two have a look at the barrow outside the escalators in the Upper Precinct in Coventry, they have loads of leg warmers, neon fishnet fingerless gloves, ra-ra skirts and much more. Coventry Market and Arcade Fancy Dress are also good places to pick out some retro accessories!

The second heat for the Godiva Unsigned competition took place on Sunday, and we are extremely pleased to say that both the Black Fangs and Idle Playthings accumulated the most votes and inspired the judges on the day.

Many thanks for everyone who turned up to show their support, and we look forward to round 3, when another two bands will make it through to the live final.
