Fond memories of Tea For The Wicked being the first band we ever saw at The Woodman, Blackfen, in the early 90's (they were supporting Samson) and a stand out gig at The Marquee in Charing Cross Road a few years later - all came to the fore when we learnt of the untimely passing of Steve Hemingway aka 'Arfa Roach' last July. Anyway Arfa's memorial gig takes place at The Golden Lion, Loughton, tonight from 7pm in aid of St. Clare Hospice where he spent his last days. And It's going to be a case of 'Three For The Wicked' with Steve's daughter Libby guesting on a couple of songs plus 2014 Bluefest openers The Tea Project, Deviant Amps and Nukli. Our 'Video Of The Day' is therefore dedicated to Arfa - a a fitting tribute to one of life's true characters. R.I.P. mate.
