Crown gig went very well. Nice venue and good crowd although acoustics were poor, so couldn't hear ourselves clearly. I fairly messed up a couple of tunes =¬) but nobody seemed to notice (much). Had a couple on encores so can't be bad.

Hello... check out our new/old video (practice session Jan 08)- 'Welcome to Paradise'. It's not pretty but it's close enough for punk rock =¬) Leigh Zipjam

Are those automated comments from Tracker Gem?, just I thought it might be a useful thing for Zipjam to use but not if it sends regular comments. Leigh Zipjam
