Praying Mantis: The Bull, Colchester: Thank you Dave and all who came to THE BULL in Colchester

For those unfortunate enough not to be here last Saturday night you missed a real treat. Praying Mantis the legendary rock band graced the stage of the music room and entertained a raucous crowd with 2 hours of brilliant rock music.

Chris, Tino, Andy, Mike and Benji we all thank you so much for an amazing night, total gentlemen and it was great to see a band of this stature giving something back to a small venue like ourselves.

Their new album SANCTUARY is out to buy now and I thoroughly recommend this album.

After a great performance on the Saturday at The Bull in Colchester, the Mantis lads then travelled on the Sunday to a field in the depths of Cambridgeshire, where a gathering of fans accumulated at the now Cult Festival Cambridge Rock.

This was Praying Mantis’ second appearance at the festival, with performing last year on the Radio Caroline and being promoted this year to the Main Stage.

The fan attendance was fantastic and both the band and onlookers were clearly enjoying themselves.
