HARRY POTTER - BUCK BROTHERS BREAK WORLD RECORD

Rock newcomers BUCK BROTHERS have set a world record for the most concerts played in a day, after performing at 28 London venues in 12 hours yesterday (05MAR07). The three-piece British band - said to be a favourite of HARRY POTTER star DANIEL RADCLIFFE - raced from gig to gig, starting at 11am with sets in north London venues including The Enterprise in Chalk Farm and the Hope and Anchor in Highbury. Buck Brothers finished their mammoth run with a full-length set at Leicester Square's Sound Republic in the centre of the capital. Their successful attempt was to mark the release of their debut album ME. Singer ANDY DUKE, 28, says, "Being able to spend the whole day playing music with fans following us around London - I couldn't ask for a more fun day." The former record holder was German band KANSAS CITY, who played 26 shows in 24 hours in 2005.
