OLD SCRUBBERS
.
.
after our call centre was inundated with erics fans wanting to know if the lead story in last weeks NEWS OF THE WORLD was true, the band have decided to give the following statement
.
'the rumours are true that during our free time between erics gigs we had started the 'HANDJOB WITH A SMILE' carwash, but due to the amazing numbers of punters wanting to be part of the naked soapy erics experience and also in the interests of public safety we have decided to call it a day'
.
'we apologise to our legions of female fans and a helpline has been set up to help them get through these traumatic times'
.
but thats not all we've been up to
.
all of the lads have been keeping busy with the extended family of erics related bands
.
and this week coming is no exception, on friday 3rd oct paul is out with the SPLINTER boys playing a private do
.
on sat 4th oct lsd is out with the ROGUEFLYS at the Manhattan Bar in osset and BSD is out with HEAVY LOAD at the Tut 'n' Shive yeadon
.
sun 5th sees BSD out with HEAVY LOAD again, this time at The Boot and Shoe ackworth (6pm)
.
and tues 7th oct sees sam and the MOJO lads over at TOMMY's BAR (NEW INN WALTON)
.

so you can still get yer fix of the erics, just in small doses, speaking of which
,
time for the penicillin

GIVE IT SOME

.
sat night (13th) sees the erics return to the
WELLINGTON PUB ECCLESHILL BRADFORD for a night of the music of the ROCK in this biker friendly boozer
. its a pretty big pub and we play in a smaller room at one end, but with it being open plan you can get to hear every note without even having to see us, which i know will be better for some of the ladies who frequent our gigs as it must be uncomfortable to spend the entire night 'moist'
.
you can see us from the bar in the bigger room though, which is a great excuse to go to it more often and get even more pissed, which in turn makes us sound better, win - win all round!
.
and speaking of getting more pissed, BSD called up to LSD's house on sunday afty to pick up an adaptor for his transmiter that LSD had repaired only to find when he got there that it wasnt the BSD adaptor that LSD had fixed but one belonging to BAZ and BSD's adaptor was in SAMs boot. BAZ didnt even realise that his adaptor was being repaired by LSD who in all good faith didnt realise that it wasnt BSD's even though BSD thought that it was
.
in the end we decided to go to the PUB!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JILL

KIN ACE!
.
.
thats how mojo Baz described the erics gig at the new inn on fri night
.
and being the top bloke that he is, he even took a few (rather slendid) snaps on his big expensive camera thingy including this very flattering shot of the 'beaver' on drums
.
cheers to everyone else who turned up and made it a belter of a gig
.
and also to felly who took the black n white shots
.
we did try our best to foook it up, but they just kept asking for more
.
cheers also to all who put their hands in their pockets and managed to stick £156 in the bucket to go to martin house, thats an amazing £330 raised in the last two gigs
.
cheers

THE LAST STAND??
.
.
sunday tea time saw the rock and roll sex machine that is the erics knock out the locals in the CRIMEA CAS
.
this was mainly due to the very dodgy wind being produced onstage, that and some rather smashing tunes all splendidly (is that a word?) mixed by the rather smashingbloketypeperson (that aint a word) jimmy the landlord
.
a maseeeeeeeev thanks go out to the crowd in crimea who, after hearing that all bucket takings would be going towards the total raised at the cross keys bash for martin house managed to bung in an amazing £172
.
thank you all VERY, VERY much
.


cheers to Tony of cas for all of the above pics, top bloke
.
see you all at the new inn churwell morley on fri night (5th) where we will be passing the bucket again to see if we can get it up to £300
.
