[i] guitarist in the band I was in said enough is enough,when I questioned why he replied that I like a laugh too much and now I quote,my questionable morals makes me someone he would much less know than play with,so I thanked him for the glowing reference wished the silly old fool all the best,given that I am happily married in my late fifties who does not drink,smoke or do drugs did make me chuckle [/i]

[size=5]so after a few misses and after a bit of faffing about,[/size] [size=5]I have finally joined a band,doing originals,[/size] [size=5]and after so many years of being away from bands I forgot how good it feels,[/size] [size=5]but isnt it funny how in the same week I got another two offers,one doing blues[/size] [size=5] and the other doing rock covers,both quite tasty bands,[/size] [size=5]but the chance of putting my mark on the music was the thing that clinched for me[/size] [size=5]also the drummer and I got on a hoot as well as played well together in such a short time[/size] [size=5]so onwards and upwards[/size] [size=5] so cheers for now[/size] [size=5]stef[/size]

great band, and as you say back on form for sure

ha ha just went old school and played along to rush 2112 managed to get through the whole thing without too many errors given that its about 15 years since I last done it, so will go again later,then perhaps a fretless with john martyn

to join another band and make sure that I am playing this time next year [size=4] [/size][size=4] [/size]

so sad a great performer will be greatly missed

very sad rip

yup thanks for that really loving the albums,the bas player uses some nice effects hoping to see them soon cheers stef
