Great set tonight at Crook FC and loved your side work in the second set. Got to say that what an awesome job you did with the solo in Walking in the Rain!! Question, where did you get the band banner that was set up behind the drummer? My son has been trying all over to get one for his band. Cheers and looking forward to your next visit! Alan
nearly just little bits of fill left to do, just taking ages cos im allways skint! been about 5 years since i first got it started haha, jst been lookin at ur pics yours are coming along nicely!
Hey Ainsley really enjoyed seeing you guys again last night and you really went down a storm at The Tub! I was stood at the back with the missus and I was the one getting into trouble from Bill for not dancing and clapping but hey I have missed some many good bands by getting drunk and head banging (a lot of years ago) that I really wanted to enjoy your set. LOL!! My son plays guitar in his own band and I told him about your playing so he took his girlfriend and a few friends and sat at the front and they were all well impressed. I loved the double take on my son’s face when you brought out the twin head guitar.. LOL…talk about green with envy! You made a lot of new friends last night and I have always appreciated a REAL guitar player. Great night!! Cheers and Stay METAL - Alan
Hey Man thanks for the add and yeah, caught you a few months ago with SOTT at the Grand Hotel and you guys were awesome. Be honest when I first saw you I thought this guy is almost my age and has the same hairstyle not the conventional Rock star LOL! But hey when you started playing that guitar MAN you really kicked ASS! I have always been into music from the Stones, Floyd and Hendrix in the 60s to Hard Rock & METAL from the 70s onwards, with Sabbath, Guns, Maiden, AC/DC, Motorhead, WASP and now with Slayer, Airbourne and Lamb of God. Old hippies never die they just Keep on Rocking HARD! Today I support my son’s Thrash/METAL band FALLEN FATE and it’s awesome for me to see him fly the METAL flag! Have a great week and turn the music up real LOUD! Cheers and Keep it METAL!
