Adrenochrome Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I'm on course for an average of 1 per week this year, not bad considering we had 2 enforced breaks to get in a new drummer then later a new guitard. We'll aim for about 60 next year which about all we can manage with family stuff to fit in as well as work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few London gigs and, yes, some in Essex. Edited December 1, 2008 by bilbo230763 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm up visiting relatives next time you play in Cleckheaton I'll try to drop in the Rose & Crown and say hello. I was also thinking of getting a few ideas from your set list as I'm also working with a female singer at the moment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil the new landlord at the Rose & Crown is a top bloke. He used to book us regularly when he had the Coniston in Bradford, and has now booked us for his pub in Baildon as well as the Rose and Crown. You're welcome to borrow ideas; we didn't write any of the songs! Most of our set is tailored to our vocalist's singing style, so you won't find any rapping / shouting or very rapid-fire lyrics as none of that suits her.
