We will all be suprised if I dig out all these 4-track tapes... any touch with Gary? Must come over to London 4 a reunion.. Glad you r well mate.. ps. Haven't forgot the prospect of doin something in common.
Do you remember playing with a band called the Thai Brides at the 12 Bar Club earlier this year?
It's a small small world, I was told by their guitarist that you were one of the best bands he has heard in a mighty long time, and definately the best band they played with ever.
And I agree, woww!!!
Please tell me that you're playing some gigs very soon....
Ahoy Sir Francis, and welcome aboard me Sailing Pandora! Would be a pleasure to check out ye next gigs. Have a savage weekend whatever ye do! Anchors away, Cap'n Puck
It was good to see you guys last night - shame the previous bands over-ran so late though. Ah well, that can't be helped.
A good set - and were there a couple of newer songs in there? And just how hard were you twanging that string to make it snap!? (lucky it wasn't the 3rd string - too many corny jokes to be made). That was a very swift recovery.
