...bottlebag were brought to life by an aging fish lord who needed slaves. After 259 years of toil they were set free & formed a band - Their complete lack of originality & sence of humour made them firm favorites of Q Magazine, who printed a full page of ineffectual yoga moves for they're pig like half cousins.
The band frequently wrap damp shawls around each other.
Noted for the absence of any chemistry between band members 'bottlebag' have achieved BOGGLE victories over many royal ghosts including William of Orange & Eleanor of Aquitaine.
In 1904 the band lost their long legged Vibraphone player in a milking accident......luckily he was dis-covered later in a wallnut muffin, just to the left.
The music of BOTTLEBAG has been compared to the crazed doodlings of diabetic Ken (they met him at the day centre)
If you see any of the band please return them to the rubbish bin, thanks.
