skidder652003 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Some bloke emailed me today saying he's having a spot of bother getting a band for his bash on the 20th Jan in the States. Wanted to know if we were available and how much and would we reflect that if he flew us over and put us up? Result! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidder652003 Posted January 10, 2017 Author Share Posted January 10, 2017 [quote name='ambient' timestamp='1484067067' post='3212392'] I suspect it's a scam. I think it's been mentioned on here before. Why would he want to fly you all the way over there ? Wouldn't it be far, far, far cheaper to hire an American band ?
