Which is odd as for the last few weeks my facebook feed has been displaying a lot of random things, and today, this was the photo to images down in my feed when I got up, dispite never hearing of the band before!

 

I wish I could get my main band in other people's feeds! 😸 

 

Weird coincidence. I'm sure someone who understands algorithms could explain it, but I sure can't!

More of an audition than a rehearsal but whilst at Whitby Goth festival last November, I had a call from the singer of Siouxsie and the Banshees tribute “Painted Bird” saying that the bassist had left and the remaining three had all said I would be a great replacement. I was flattered. I said yes and tonight was my first rehearsal / audition.

I took my Fender USA Jazz, for that Steve Severin vibe and my Blackstar U700 head. The built in chorus and overdrive immediately gets my sound in the right area. 
 

I have been so busy with real life that I went in feeling under rehearsed and I didn’t want to waste anybody’s time. We started with Metal Postcard and then launched into Happy House. I could tell they were happy. As the set wore on, it was obvious that I had put the work in. 
 

Nine songs in and I missed the timing on a section of Switch, but it was in the bank by then! 
 

I am officially the new member of the band…

and I must be doing alright as I was presented with a band t-shirt too!

My first show is Water Rats in March with Echoes of the Bunnymen. 

Well done and well deserved. 

Look forward to seeing the gig posts in the future.

After years of Tuesday rehearsals from 6pm - 9pm we changed our time to 11am - 2pm starting today.

It was quite good but we did feel hungry and, as there are no windows, one of us felt it was about 8pm.  

I enjoyed it and we'll see how it goes next week.  Also...  it's £10 cheaper.
