We've been together for about 3 years in all with 2 years as a 4 piece.
Our band are;
Steve; Guitar (PRS)
Rob; Vocals
Mac (the Bass Thing); Bass
Kelvin (Sticks); Drums
I wouldn't say we're old but were not exactly teenagers (although some of our kids are).
History;
A couple of us got together to play guitar in Robs garage, on finding a drummer we realised we needed to go somewhere else before the neighbours complained.
As we had too many guitarists (3) Tony (see our friends) volunteered to sing whilst Steve and Rob fought over the guitaring duties. After about a year Tony decided to go his own way and follow his acoustic folk roots and can often be seen at The Castle (West Coker, Somerset) on a Thursday night wowing the locals.
The rest of us decided to carry on with Rob taking on the vocal duties.
Things worked out better than we expected we played a couple of slots at Open Mic nights, supported another local band twice, played a charity gig in Portland and did our first wedding.
Things have subsequently taken off, we played a lot of pubs in Somerset and Dorset during the summer and winter of 2007. For 2008 we've already got 5 gigs booked plus some charity work but we want to make a lot of changes to our first set before we take on too many more bookings.

Hi Gr8 to see you all the other night, & thanks for the add. Just experimenting at present, but at least it's all my own work!! I need to invest in some more sophisticated equipment. Best Wishes Adie.
Have you guys seen the intelpowersmusic link? (listed under my friends). It allows you to update 5 music tracks to your profile instead of 3.... Good luck for the Castle gig!
Excellent work, Rob - the sites looking MUCH better. Nice photo's too, although Mac seems to be hogging the limelight a bit! How about a few pics of that shrinking violet who plays the drums....?
