Hello Frank thanks for the video of your super-group it was absolutely brilliant, do you think Emma Bunton would come and play sousaphone for us when our chap is on holiday? perhaps you could ask her or one of your other showbiz friends, we already tried asking Paul McCartney but got no reply, he was probably in the bath or something.
Greetings from Ramsbottom......just mopped up the urine after watching your clip with Emman Bun Tin and the Rourkster.....keep em coming and mines and black pudding. Hale in Sale and Balti in Alty.........radio timps is not for wimps........!!
After 20 years in show business I, LUDICROUS release yet another new single "WE'RE THE SUPPORT BAND" worldwide. "WE'RE THE SUPPORT BAND" is available for download on I TUNES & all major on line music stores. You can watch the video on the I, LUDICROUS myspace site.....Thanks.
What on earth happened to Little Frank's old body and why does he need a new one! No scary answers please!
I'll be mostly mixing songs about giraffe's and Motorbikes this evening.
Great to hear from you, have been a big fan since the NME's Beatles covers tape in the 80's of which all I can remember is a truly memorable cover by your highly entertaining self, so a lasting impression on an impressionable fella!
Cheers big Frank and hope the Little Frank Op goes off well.
