John likes to keep those piccies for himself
 Nah, he doesn't have a computer so we have to organise a night for him to pop round here to put them online.

Maybe Sven has acumulated excessive amounts of 'airmiles' from sitting about typing witty and sarcastic comments on his webpage all day!

First things first; so what happened to our charidee appearance at The Glass Barrel? Attendees at our recent Bakers Vaults gig will have noticed Naughty Peter's blackened fingernails; this is from where the bamboo splints were inserted in order to extract details of his whereabouts on said charidee gig afternoon. Tell you what, he's a bugger to keep down, but Sinful Dr Arson drew on his years of experience of the application of torture (more usually via the medium his bass guitar playing) and extracted the following details. So here it is:- many many moons ago the very nice man (not a whiskery old git at all) John at The Glass Barrel asked us if we'd play a charidee Sunday afternoon gig. Everybody agreed that this would be nice. It didn't however coincide with Naughty's shifts, so Naughty had a chat with a chum at work (hereafter referred to as "Twatty") who agreed to swap shifts with Naughty on the Sunday in question. Top! Job done - all sorted! So time passed and we all grew a little older and a little poorer but hey, a little wiser too. Actually, it was just the first two. On the Friday before the Sunday gig Naughty is beavering away at work when a postcard crosses his naughty little workstation. ("Workstation"? "Station" would be more like it - it's Piccadilly after all. Ask for him by name next time you're there.). Naughty picks up the postcard picturing a couple of Vietnamese ladyboys:- Dear Work, Weather here. Wish you were wonderful. See you next Wednesday. Love, Twatty xxx Much exclamation and slandering of Twatty ensues followed by frenzied ringing around to try to get Naughty's shift covered. Alas and alack (yup, panto season's upon us) it wasn't possible to get anyone else to do it at short notice so we had to pull out, and let's face it, nobody likes having to do that. We tried manfully to get another equally dodgy band to cover for us but they were all either working, having heart attacks (see below) or else couldn't make it out to an unpaid gig 20 miles from home on a Sunday afternoon. Heartless swine. So amidst a welter (what's a welter? - Ed) of profuse apologies we say sorry to The GB, the kiddywinks, and our fan Dave Featherstone who was going to watch us. The handsome and dashing and not even slightly a git at all landlord John is known for his dismay at 'no shows' (and who can blame him) but we were right on course until two days before the gig and tried really hard to cover it. Unfortunately, our crapness knows no bounds and we dived. Winkers. We're hoping that the really very hunky John (I don't know about you, but I always feel there's a touch of the gentle Jesus about him. It's a caring thing, y'know. Shining through the gruff yet masculine exterior) will see his way clear to putting us on at the next charidee do which we WILL turn up for. There could be a poster in it.....? Now that's prime grovelling PMSL@Gentle Jesus :ph43r:

Erm... Speedily? Bleeding?? Have I missed something? Anyway, you weren't even at the gig (again) so ner with big knobs on. And don't come and see us at the charidee afternoon as well. While I'm here, I don't want to sound like a bunch of precocious prima donnas (although anyone who's met us (hello Webby! Hello Vesty! Hello John! Hello Caz! Hello scouse cooking bloke! Yes, that's everybody.) knows we are), but any chance we could be on quite early in the day as our drummer's got another gig in the evening and it's also the official opening of our sound bloke Chrissy's new shed and our Arnie has been retained to perform the opening ceremony with a speech and everything. I think the front three are supposed to be doing an outdoor acoustic set as well but I anticipate an alcoholic haze rather spoiling it. Well, for the punters anyway. Honestly, you don't do a gig for weeks.... Don't miss Mister Bat's top new video acessible via our website Lix page! Toodle Pip! SVB x ps why is this bloody thing doing centre justification? |
