zBut they still sing songs about it...


Shelley the red faced bassist
Had some very dodgy notes
And if you ever heard them
You would even say 'oh no'

It wasn't me who mucked it up!!! I won't say which individual(s) were responsible for the train wreck, but it wasn't me. Or the drummer.

My balls generally, the in-laws don't like to see that when we are opening presents.

+1 to Killing in the name. A great Xmas no. 1

We're planning on doing a couple for our Christmas gig in a couple of weeks. Band Aid didn't go too well in the last rehearsal, think we're going to try Slade and Wizzard in the coming week. I'm not to sure on the ends of choruses for Wizzard though...

[lurksalot]

We normally role out slade , springsteens santa and frankies power of love , but this year we will just do slade as we have run out of rehearsal time , and we normally end up playing it twice anyway

This. We're fortunate enough to have a night for the past three Christmases at the Wharf in Tavistock. Even more fortunately, we've sold it out every time, and it's becoming the go-to Tavi Christmas bash. But this year, only one Christmas song, the aforementioned Greedies. At the appropriate moment, it snows! Going to be a great night! And yes, sold out already!
