So who’s next, Chris?😁

 

Ha ha, I wish, that's a way down the line Mick, but it - or Quadrophenia - are going to happen

 

Next is an interesting shift in direction, Odelay by Beck, gigging it in April al going well 👍

Blimey! Odelay’s a great choice… hope everyone has got their “make lots of random noises” pedals ready!

Blimey (or ‘what?’) has been the standard reaction do far among the few we’ve told, which makes it all the more fun. Re noises, our keys player says he needs some time off to do some programming so yes!

 

We jammed track 1 a few weeks back, lovely to play 👍

A massive part of my formative years that album. Good work… keep us all updated!

God I wish I got to play music like that. Instead I’m in year thirty of playing Brown Eyed ****ing Girl. Wrongly. I play it correctly, but you know geetards.

Same. Our singist wants us to push for £400 but nobody wants to pay that these days, so we normally get £325-350. He flat out refuses to do anything for under £300, even if that means we hardly have any gigs, so we're left playing to a handful of regular venues where we've played before because everywhere else is skint.

That's unfortunate that it's tough to get £400 out of venues in your area.

 

I think we all agree that location means allot when it comes to the number of good places that book live bands.

 

We're in a great location for gigs. But even so we had to work our butt's off to get to the point where the minimum we'll accept is $700.00 range. And for that your getting a decent band, sound and lighting.  I think it's a bargain.
