Rock 'N' Rant
Rock 'N' Rant is a non-profit organisation located in the Medway Towns to promote independent British musicians and comedians who may otherwise find it hard to secure gigs. At this time, the organisation has been running for two years and has promoted many acts both local and not-so-local.
==Founding==
Rock 'N' Rant was founded in August 2004 by Brad Harmer, Ronnie Warner and Graham Burr to help promote local bands and comedians in the Medway club-circuit. Harmer and Burr, friends since Grammar School, were both competent stand-up comedians who felt stifled by the local scene while Warner was a multi-talented musician. The initial seeds were sown as they worked together in a company called Xchanging, processing insurance policies. This historic discussion led to a plan for a single gig, named "Rock n' Rant" and punctuated in the style of Guns N' Roses.
The first gig was performed on Friday, 6 August 2004 in the basement of The Command House in Chatham. Brad Harmer headlined the gig, with support from Heavy metal band Ionika and comedy-rock band The One Ronnie... and Some Other Bloke. The P.A. System was borrowed from Brad's cousin and the venue agreed not to charge for the hire, making their money instead on sales at the bar. On the night, the singer for Ionika failed to arrive and the band performed a series of instrumental songs after renaming themselves Antionika.
Following the success of this gig, it was decided to continue putting on Rock 'N' Rant nights.
