   About La Honda
la honda was born back in the year 2000 in the front of a white van. Malcolm, and his loyal best mate Dave and his teenage girlfriend sarah were all on their way to malcolms mums house in crawley to pick up a sofa.They spent the journey singing mamas and papas songs and taking the piss out of each other.Then Malcolm asked sarah if she would be his singer and in between a mouthfull of salt and vinegar squares, sarah said "ok", and la honda began its epic journey. Sarah was a waitress in a cafe and a nice posh guy called george started working there, he played the bass and began playing with la honda....so there were the four members. La Honda embarked on a Uk tour supporting Drugstore and had a great laugh going from city to city in the back of a van. One of their songs was picked up for an international ad campaign for Tic Tacs so we had about a million boxes(, in fact I never want to see another box of tic tacs again.....) Ok where were we... oh yeah, people loved La Honda and they were beginning to pick up some "hype" as they say in London. Everything was starting to go well...... but sarah and dave's relationship was similar to Richard Burton and Liz Taylor.. the bust ups, the walk outs, the shouting. It didn't help that Dave was an alcoholic and often turned up to the studio five hours late an inebriated. Sarah and Dave spilt up and the band tried to play together. Meantime, sarah was starting to get shitty with malcolm about his control freakery. Everytime sarah would try and contribute a lyric, Malcolm would seeming lean back in his chair and belly laugh. So it was only a matter of time before this John Phillips/Mama Cass relationship would turn sour. It all came to a spectalular head when playing a homecoming gug in the Gypsy Hill Tavern one fateful evening. Sarah tried to assert her new found independace by dedicating a song to an Italian boy she's recently met on holiday. A pissed Dave, leapt up from behind his kit started throwing sarah's shoes out of the window and everything else he could lay his hands on, He then grabbed her by the throat and started to throtle her in front of a packed pub audience and which point the pub desended on the stage and tables turned over, chairs flew and the band were kicked out. Sarah promptly left town, and malcolm got a new singer called emily and he took her to SXSW posing as Sarah. Emily sang very well and was a beauty but the original magic was lost. Recently the band had a reunion in an attempt to save dave's life, and unfortuneately Malcolm was the one who turned up drunk and precedeed to ask the audience (including tennagers)"had they ever been with a prostitute?" pointed to dave and said drunkenly " she used to fuck him!!" and then to a bemused george " And I used to fuck him up the arse!!!!!!!" It was a disaster. But here's some of La Honda's brilliant unreleased album. We were so good!!!! We never would have made it, but we had personality.

What a story, something to write down on pages of gold!!!
Ha ha, well thats what happens when you name your band after a car...They should have let you write the songs and then they would all be millionaires!!!
