M-N-Y Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I saw the band at Alexanders jazz theatre in Chester some years ago, you were all fantastic. Would love to see you again at some point. Hope 2012 is a good one for you and ND. Cheers, Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Academy Posted December 27, 2011 Author Share Posted December 27, 2011 [quote name='crez5150' timestamp='1324936824' post='1478654'] Good going pete.... Has the line up changed much over that time? [/quote] Bass, keyboards, lead guitar and lead vocals have never been depped. Over the years we have (as I can recall) used 8 drummers, 8 backing vocals, and at least 30 brass players. The line-up is pretty stable now. We have 2 regular drummers, who share the gigs. We've been fortunate to have some great brass and woodwind players, including the guy that now plays with Level 42, and James Knight, a great London-based session player. We thought the band might last a few years, but never envisaged 15. All credit to our keyboard player, who runs the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a close friend of my dad. And an awesome sax player! Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
