Radio Interviews and Secret Locations

First and foremost it would be rude not to give you a brief report of our gig in Sheffield. West Street Live is an enjoyable and lovely venue. I personally enjoyed the set by Chloe-Jade Simmons. I also enjoyed the bands discussion to plan a national pinball machine syndicate competition. Last man standing wins, simple. We also played with our food.......



Yesterday was the beginning of a busy week and we made our way to a secret location for a radio interview. I was equipped with a Sat Nav device and Russ was equipped with Jonny Swift as a map reader and a promise of "I know how to get there." We later found out when Dan received a phone call from Jonny, that Jonny knew how to get to the town and not the building.

Russ and Jonny think on their feet and get directions from a passer by. At that time I phoned Russ for an update so this left Jonny to gather the directions. Following the directions from the passer by, Russ and Jonny made progress until the directions ran out. The directions ran out because Jonny stopped listening to the directions because he didn't think the directions would work that far. Luckily the same passer by was still around and we were a band again at the secret location.

We chatted and Dan performed with Jonny backing. It was a good experience.



The busy week continues tomorrow with a gig at Milo in Leeds. It's free so come out for some midweek relaxation. The week ends with a Preston double, playing Friday evening at the Continental Beer Festival and Saturday evening at a venue that will be announced when we can.

I like being in a busy band, it beats reality!
