   About The Astons
A Brief History....................................... In October 2006 four friends from Washington started chatting in the local pub about forming a band. Craig, Trev, Nick and Gaz had all recently left different projects and were keen to get straight back into the swing of things. With their mixed tastes in music they decided to get together now and then to have a mess around with some ideas they had. A few weeks later they bumped into Coxy on a drunken night out. Coxy had recently started playing bass and seemed keen to get in on the action. The weeks that followed produced some cracking new songs and by early 2007 thought it was the right time to unleash their music to public ears. They secured a gig at a local venue (West 1) and the months to follow seen the recording of their fist E.P. at Polestar, Newcastle. To date THE ASTONS have performed at numerous venues across the reigon supporting various well known acts such as "Freerunner" & Northumberland signed band "Clear Blue Skies" ............................... If you have any questions regarding gigs or their music, don't hesitate to contact us!!!!!

time for the homo-erotic beverage challenge chapter two, pt 1

"apple sourz and lemonade"

most likely to be quoffed by closet gay charvers in the ranch, probably saying "oooh it's refreshing". most other folk are too manly to admit that they would enjoy it and would sooner stick to necking cans of red stripe and crawling into a dark corner and spewing into their own shoe...

...all to the beat of "i think we're alone now"
