   About The Vile Reign
SIR ANDREW 'DREW' ANDREWS An individualist who always does what's best for the group. He used to play organ in The Gentrys, of 'Keep on Dancing' fame, but in the Vile Reign, Sir Andrew is heard on bass, harmonica and trumpet. He enjoys riding his motorcycle, going horseback riding, swimming and listening to folk and classical music. Speaking of being an individualist, how many people do you know who have a pet Australian Honey Bear? He has the mischievous and subtle charm of a young tiger who still doesn't realise his full strength. DARK CLOUD Plays guitar, sitar, bass and banjo and excels on every one. Whenever somebody takes a photo of The Vile Reign, Dark Cloud's mouth automatically goes into a humourous grin. His easy-going personality and his quick understanding are great assets to the group. His sense of humour is always evident. He has the mischievous and subtle charm of a young tiger who still doesn't realise his full strength. VAN DER HAAR The hardest working Vile Reign, both onstage and off. In addition to backing all their songs with a solid drum beat, Van Der Haar is The Vile Reign's road manager, taking care of all the necessary business details when they're away from home. Van Der Haar's former group, Flash and the Board of Directors, made many tours with Paul Revere and the Raiders. He has the mischievous and subtle charm of a young tiger who still doesn't realise his full strength. ROY 'WRAY' GARFUNKEL An excellent organist, he adds a full sound to The Vile Reign's in-person appearances. He comes from a musical family, his brother B.B. being a member of the The Hombres, and his father being an accomplished musician. Roy plays the bass on stage as well as several other instruments. He likes to ride motorcycles and listen to classical music and jazz. He has the mischievous and subtle charm of a young tiger who still doesn't realise his full strength. GYPSY ANDREWS (No relation to Sir Andrew) Perhaps the quietest member of the Vile Reign. An introspective genuis, who mastered the difficult art of the guimbarde while completing her studies in law. Behind her reserved exterior is a quick wit, which brings a much needed smile on the long and winding road of fame.Raised as the daughter of a Polish flautist in exile, she has the mischievous and subtle charm of a young tiger who doesn't realise her full strength. 'MIKEY' ANDREWS (No relation to Gypsy or Sir Andrew) When she's not happily working on the family farm , 'Mikey' can be found on the road and in the studio with her 'other' family The Vile Reign. Often referred to as the most learned of the band, 'Mikey' enjoys reading contemporary novels and 'dabbling' in her quieter moments. A superb harpist, harpsichord and harmonium player, 'Mikey' has the mischievous and subtle charm of a young tiger who doesn't know her full strength.

Hear you've been recording with Andrew McSweeney - an old mate of mine. Hope it's rockin' well. How 'bout a gig with the Viles, McSweeney and us? Andrew reckons the Northcote Social Club might be a goer...
Cheers for now

What most of the political obituaries will skirt is the issue of how Blair's aesthetic was held back from full development - like so many of us working in the late 20th century - by the stern influence of Johnny Ramone.
