BAG OF POO!!

.

sorry to anyone who turned up at the old red lion only to find that we were'nt playing

(the same thing happened to us)

we tried to phone everyone we thought might turn up

.

the landlord told us that since he had taken over the boozer, a month ago, there had been no sign of any band bookings

.

we confirmed the gig twice with gav who books the bands for the pub, the last time being the night before we were due to play

.

so if you or anyone you know are due to play, i advise that you call in and check first

.

i loved lugging the 6x10 down a flight of stairs for no reason, it made my day

.

sorry again

.

BIG SEXY DAVE

OH, ITS GETTING HOT IN HERE!!

the new inn was brilliant last night

not the best of pubs for space, sound or air con

but bloody amazing when it comes down to the punters and the atmosphere

cheers to everyone who turned up to make it our most enjoyable night there for a long, long time

.

it was a warm 'un from the kick off

with sam and dave (good name for a band) sweating like a pair of big baldy sweaty things in sweatshirts who had just won first prize in a sweaty competition whilst working in a sweatshop making sweatbands

cheers also to the mad b*stards for dancing thru the night and giving it their all on the 500 miles pogo fest

no gigs now for a couple of weeks

just about enough time to recharge our batteries as may sees us doing three gigs in one weekend
