OLD CHAPEL GET EM IN
.
sat night saw us return to the fox n newt leeds for a pretty sweaty, rather noisy, sometimes flashy and very wet giggle of a gig
.
it was also mark from the old chapel's birthday
.
(he dunt look 50!!)
.
he was happy to be talked about, and took all of the ribbing in his stride
. right up to the point where it was suggested that he got a round in and he did a runner into the ladies
.
sorry about the quality of the two photos above, its just that mark insists on his own personal photographer who uses marks very own box brownie which was given to him by queen victoria on his eighteenth birthday
.
we did get mark up to sing along to 500 miles and were quite impressed with how he fitted in with the whole erics upfront image
.
with us being big bald chunky monkeys in black tees and him being a tall skinny streak a piss in a bright red shirt and HAIR!!!!!!!
.
LSD would like to thank smirnoff for supplying his refreshments for the night
.
and this next pic was taken using a special stella lens on the camera
.
cheers to all that came
.
the bells, woody n linda, felly, DUNCAN MCFARLANE, the new inners, stu and his lovely lady from allerton underwater, the chapelers, gil n mate, judy and JULIE!!!!, mrs BSD and everyone else
.
we really appreciate it
. next gig

SPONSORSHIP MEAL??
.
sat night sees us return to the small but beautifully formed fox n newt pub leeds
.
its our second visit here (the first one was mental) and it would be great if we could get you all down again as its our last gig for a couple of weeks due to an un-named member of the band being on an asbo for nicking corsets off of mo molams washing line
,
its also the start of our gig sponsorship deal, where big stars put their money where there mouth is and donate funds to ensure that the entire band get a keebab at the end of the night
.
this weeks gig is sponsored by sir cliffs yellow shorts
.
and lionel rich-teas chin
.
if you want a seat you'd better get there early, and if you want a beer you'd better get there before dave

PURE SMUT
,
a few of the erics faithful ventured out into the wilds of morley last night to see sam erics other band MOJO
.
and they were rather good indeed
.
the best song of the night for me had to be floyds comfortably numb (pink not kieth)
.
and it was hard to keep a straight face with sam singing about his amazing talent at pulling the birds on hoochie coochie smootchie man
.
they even had a song about back-door loving written by some old hooker, the song was called 'bum, bum, bum, bum' with backing vocals going 'OW,OW,OW,OW!!!'
.
pure smut
.
great band
.
great night

.
.
i know it sounds like us, but its not
.
GRUMPY OLD MEN are among the recent additions to our links bit that can be found on the right by scrolling down
.
.
are also new edditions (bobby brown anyone?) and sound like and erics type of band
,
(cheesy covers of 80's classics)
.
.
is also in there, an amazing guitarist, LSD wishes he was more like her in his playing
.
whereas i wouldn't mind if he looked just a bit more like her
.
then again, if he had an ass, crack n sack wax, that would be a start
.
plus you can now mail dave (big writing , top right) for bookings, song suggestions, fish cooking advise (microwave for three minutes and serve in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy with a fried egg on top and spam), midnight meetings, sex tips etc
. sorry about the bangers n mash pic if you're a carrot muncher
,
but i'm hungry + theres a pint
.
see you at the new inn on sat to get down with MOJO

BAND NIGHT OUT
.
after nearly ten months together we decided it was time that we all got together for a good old piss up, but it was the usual problem,
,
how do we make sure that sam turns up ??
.
easy
.
this sat 22nd sept sees the first official erics band piss up at the MOJO gig at the new inn churwell
.
come along and see little and big sexy dave drink more than is humanly possible whilst sam pulls funny faces doing his widdley bits
.
like this
.
and this
.
and this
.
plus see the look on baz's face when col plays his 'put the naked pic of the queen' on the back of his bass headstock
.
and witness baz's 'my god i hope no-one realises that I've just cum' face as a result
.plus they do play some rather good rock/blues stuff, not a 'woke up this morning' in sight
,
but a bit of Cream, Eric Clapton, Rory Gallagher, Albert King, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Dr. Feelgood, John Mayall, Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Jimmy Hendrix, ZZ Top, Black Crowes and pink floyd instead
.
see you there

LION EYES
.
and speaking of great songs by the eagles, the lion gig last night was probably the best (of your love) that we've ever played there
.
the place was rammed to the rafters and ridiculously bloody hot (el california)
.
life (in the fast lane) just doesn't get any better than playing your bollox off to a bunch of nutters who just want to sing, dance and get pissed along to the noise that you pump out
.
big cheers to mal spunkster who did one (of these nights) hell of a job on the sound
.
the new (kid in town) stuff is coming on well, with teenagers and chelsea dagger sounding great
.
.
and last but by no means purple
.
why is sam cringing?
.
why is paul laughing?
.
why is LSD looking so sinister?
.
and what the foook is this?
.
well.................... after several complaints about the foul stench emanating from the general stage area the management came over and ask us to try and sort it
.
being a band of the people , like what we are, we were only to happy to oblige and try to get to the bottom of the mysterious pong!
.
we first thought that it may have been sams wallet that had gone mouldy and rotten through years of neglect, but that wasn't where the whiff was coming from
.
then there was the chance that paul may have left his bum sponge in his gig bag, that was a dead ender too
.
LSD was given the all clear as he is such a nice all round lad that he would never say anything offensive or even dare to smell
.
which only left BSD, who, on closer inspection, smelt like a five week old haddock in a tramps gusset
.
it was his old trouble coming back from when he had the accident with a three foot garden gnome, a tub of swarfeega and the elephant trunk thong (poor bloke)
.
after a short band meeting, that took into account all of the various factors and weighed up the ins and outs, it was decided that the best thing to do would be to go with the scientific approach and stick a can of deodorant up his arse
.
questions answered
.
next gig
.
sat 29th sept

A FEW INN......
.
..........once again at the new inn
.
IT WAS RAMMED
.
we ended up havig a bit of a late start which meant no soundcheck, but it all went rather swimmingly
.
cheers to middle sexy col for his vocals on local boy
.
as paul mentioned, he had even put on a bit of weight, shaved his head and grown a beard to try and fit in
.
it was also great to see plenty of new faces out there, mangling in with the usual old ones
.
and last, but by no means least, we must mention LSD for his desire to perform and entertain, below is a rare shot of him playing the star apangled banner with his knob
.which usually ends up with his I'VE JUST COME IN ME PANTS face
.
and those of you who know dave well will know that he dosen't smoke, so after a good old clear out of his nether do - da's, he likes nothing more than a right good juggle
.
.
which that wasn't
.
.
next gig is at the lion cas
.
sat 15th sept
