  1. It's probably worth pointing out with all the shouting (not on here) about 'care home deaths' that people are usually in a care home for a reason - 😎
  2. That's been not unusual since day one - it's unfair to whole sections of the population that stuff like this looks suspiciously as if made up on the hoof. (apologies for minor derail) 😎
  3. They've been making money by selling over-priced 'festivals' for years .......... 😎
  4. I would think Live Nation are slowly bleeding (financially) to death ................. As far as they are concerned, this has to be worth a go (I agree with Dad btw) 😎
  5. Anyone on here remember Neville Musical Enchanter sound system? Big in North London in the 70's, I heard Neville got shot in USA? 😎
  6. I was programming juke boxes for a major leisure chain when that came out - most of our boxes were in lounge bars, so that was one record less that week.......... 😎
  7. Not if you've got size 6 feet like me, all mens socks usually are flashed 6 - 11, which means they flap off the end of the foot - not good. 😎 Do we get to turn this into a foot thread ?
  8. Tip - if you use 2nd hand packing, make sure that any previous labels are torn off/removed all sorts of problems can arise if you don't ! 😎
  9. Got a letter franked 2nd class delivered today which left the sender on 21st that's four days ............. 😎
  10. I gigged at the Original (Wardour Street) Marquee - did a short residency there with David Bowie & The Buzz........... 😎
  11. I think this is a more correct reference? https://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/profiles/guiy-de-montfort-a-complete-bounder-67412.html 😎
  12. Travel and Leisure calls John Crow Batty Rum, "Jamaican white rum is the country's version of moonshine." It is 160 proof with a content of 80% alcohol by volume.
  13. Welcome Dunk, you'll find a lot of really nice peeps on here - in answer to your question, I'm in Torbay & DPD are still delivering here.... 😎
  14. Big bits of kit, badgers, I would imagine you could get a serious amount of damage if you did hit one ! 😎
  15. E Bay is fine, it's the idiots and time wasters that are the problem, I've lost count of the emails I've answered from people who are just not going to buy at any price. I've got stuff on there atm which is going to get pulled and sold on a commission basis - I don't think I'll bother trying to sell good kit to these idiots ever again ! 😎
  16. I think I'd have (several) prior bookings.................... (not Blue Wines quote - I just copied it) 😎
  17. Booked them one Christmas, they turned up but the (British) backing band couldn't be bothered.......... they saved the day by singing every dub side of theirs that I had, into one stage mike - I think they did Book of Rules about three times (!) - the audience (& I) loved them - bless........... 😎
  18. Used to do a regular gig at a large Oxfordshire hotel - they never offered us munchies, but were daft enough to store their After Eight mints on a shelf behind us - nuff said............... 😎
  19. Whenever I see a post on this thread, I automatically switch my pc sound on............. 😎
  20. Guilty as charged - now listen to some U Roy .............. 😎
  21. Chicken Shack are a British blues band, founded in the mid-1960s by Stan Webb, Andy Silvester, and Alan Morley, who were later joined by Christine Perfect in 1967. Chicken Shack has performed with various line-ups, Stan Webb being the only constant member. Wikipedia The moment that Christine Perfect slagged off the (especially tuned) piano at my venue is forever etched on my mind - I used to introduce them as 'The Christine Perfect Band' - they liked that (not) (shrug) 😎
