πDeep Purple's guitarist, Simon McBride lived at the bottom of my street. I donβt think I ever met him as he's about 5 years younger than me, but I do remember when he won the Young Guitarist of the Year competition. Does that count?
I don't think I'd fancy being in a functions/wedding band. Session musician I might be able to do. If I were to be a pro it would have to be in an originals band.
The London Bar. We were in it about 18 years ago. There was a band playing and in the local accent, they sang Moostahng Sallee. It's a cracking bar, though.

Watched a bit of "Mick Fleetwood and Friends " last night. Did anyone notice the bit where he had trouble with the autocue? He really doesn't have much luck with them, does he? π
