TTP... If I hadn't been such a fan of this dirty ass mother funk genious band of men I would never have met my Stu!!
Tim I miss your sweaty fingers working that hammond, Rowan I miss your head of hair sticking to your face as you swoosh it about on stage, Dave I miss your sweet nature and great talent and Danny keep belting out those drums and lyrics!
You guys rock and we both miss you all like crazy...
With thanks to the Pickles and the Pickle wives for such a great night at the Happy Medium. Liking the set addition of 'Little Donkey'. I left my cardigan in the pub - did anybody find it?
