Hi Keith,

Thanks for the invite, however I will be working on new material I need to learn for the trios I play with.
Have a good 'un.

Cheers, JP

Hmm ............ need to head to Baildon one evening next week, could work!

If I come, I'll tell you what the young vote thinks (I'm not cool but I am quite young and a teacher ...... ).

Great, you can tell the audience to stop talking then and listen!

You have that problem too? I always just assumed it was something about me.

Just been rung up, gig cancelled because they had double booked...it's not the first time and I expect it won't be the last but it still pi**es me off.

Will post the new date when she rings again!

I think you should play a guerilla gig on the street outside. That'll teach em.

Although it might not work so well in this sort of weather.

Do you mean Bonzo Dog Band "Gorilla" -only blue men sing the whites, or are they hypocrites...?

Everytime this happens it really hacks me off. You ring them, they give you a date, you confirm and drop off posters, then they ring and are very sorry but...

No I mean [url="http://dictionary.die.net/guerilla"]guerilla[/url].

It's very annoying that it happens, I think promoters double-book quite often, expecting that one will pull out. I quite often turn up for a gig that should have three bands, and there are four or five who have all been told that.
