Dry Bar Gig Story - Dec 14th
Memories of the Dry Bar - Dec 14th - a real Spinal Tap night. Turning up for the soundcheck only to find the headline band - Black#5 had decided to take their gear and leave ( some kind of heckling situation we believe) - the gig was left without a drumkit. Congrats to Vuz and the other bands that a kit was sourced in time. Stoner man was also wandering around the places asking everyone if they had any acid - what is this - the Hacienda again?
Anyhows - we managed to get on stage just after 9 with no soundcheck - but engineer Graham Gallimore burning_rain_promo@yahoo.co.uk doing a fine job in difficult circumstances. We played a short set, despite several people trying to scald Ant's hands with coffee before the show!
Kudos to Paul, Russ, Helen , Zac and their mates for coming over from Chester to cheer us on. And this time there wasn't even a free minibus !
Thanks to all who bought one or more of our CDEPs - we have nearly run out - time for the next batch!
Thanks also to the Harem Pilots myweb.tiscali.co.uk/harempilots/index.html for closing the night in hilarious fashion - the spirit of Christmas is alive and well!
Now to book some more gigs - in advance of our show at the Crewe Limelight - coming your way on Feb 22nd !
