BassTool Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 These pics capture what unexpectedly turned out to be our last gig New jobs and shiftwork meant we could no longer continue, and the week after we split, our guitarist (with the Les Paul) had his forefinger on his left hand amputated between the first two knuckles following an accident, totally devastating. Taken at The Office pub in South Shields in August, one of the best live venues we have in publand up here.

BassTool Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Hahaha not me John, means I can come out and WATCH you mate Really unfortunate circumstances considering we were intent on performing one last 'Hoorah' just to pull the curtain down on what has been an absolute blast And after playing guitar for over 40 years Bobby now has to mentally and physically come to terms with and overcome this major hurdle - I cannot begin to imagine how daunting it is for him. Absolute lovely top bloke, and brilliant player, such a great shame..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Ah, I'm really sorry to hear that. What a shame. A legendary band on the circuit by all accounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milesmoremusic Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 Hi base tool. Fantastic band The dusty tools and a big miss on what is left on the circuit. I have a cdr of the band I bought from Cliff but it has corrupted and won't play. Do you have a copy you can send me or know who has one. I will of course pay your costs. Thanks Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
