To be honest , calling us a band would be stretching it a bit .
Like most bands, we hate the fucking sight of each other and we can only remain in the same room for short periods of time because the music we make is so special that all personal animosity is forgotten for the time we are playing it.
If we stop playing , even for a moment , our thoughts turn to violence and grudgeful behaviour .
Anyway ...I digress .
Please allow me to introduce myself ...I am a man of no wealth and dubious taste.
My name is William B Carruthers. Among other things I played bass on four spacemen 3 albums and the first spiritualized one .
You may be pleased to hear that I have now almost completely recovered .
This is my little vanity project,where I pretend I can sing and stride purposefully into the spotlight to claim the adoration so cruelly denied me as a bass player .
I have slept in these places .
In fields
and on beaches
up mountains
by rivers
in hope
and despair
On coalsacks
with strangers and friends
in churches and graveyards
with some that i loved
Over fat miles of hot tar
through storms and and through sun
beneath the old stars
in sweetness and dreams
haunted houses
on brooms
through the nightshift
in rooms that i hated
standing
and
sitting
kneeling
in tears
with laughter
in loss
in a doss bag for years
in plenty
in gardens
on couchs and floors
in bushes
on barges
on busses
in vans
on trains
over rivers
tree houses
in winter
In rented rooms with empty bottles.

"Another aspect of the psychedelic vision for me that has been very profound, is the sense that everything is alive or at that at least, there is no distinction between what we call living and non-living."

I'd suggest a bank job but, according to the news, they robbed themselves...and everyone else. There's gotta be cash to be had on the twang...or the jollop?
