Our band’s first gig for 18 months bar a short support show last October. Our singer has been very ill, so it was amazing to see her fully recovered and really bossing the crowd. The outpouring of goodwill was amazing to witness; sometimes music can do that. Only disappointment was the drummer, who clearly missed his kit so much during the hiatus that he bashed the hell out of it at every opportunity. Numbers were done 20 per cent faster than they should. This really impacted on my bass parts, making me wish I had not bothered with the fretless. Fortunately my attempt at recording didn’t work so my fumblings will hopefully be forgotten. Sorry to vent, but I really can’t say anything without spoiling the singer’s moment - and she deserves it. Play each gig as if it were your last...

The Clash nicked it, but I heard and loved this version first. First band I was in had a great Jamaican bass player. The singer, rhythm (me) and lead guitarist are all now bassists!

Saw Gun a couple of years ago, not hugely impressed. They don’t have the original frontman any more. -
