More Shed 3b building work.

Following Dave's purchase of a new amp, there have been complaints from many in Central Southern England about their lights dimming on a Monday evening. SSE have responded by laying a new cable to Shed 3b, carrying a very rare and powerful 9-phase supply. That should sort it.

Farewell TWALOG, hello, er...

Yet another gig has come flooding in, this time in early January. So, it's no longer the Tour With At Least One Gig (TWALOG), it's now the Tour With About Two. Oh dear.

Rehearsal - 19th November

Another gathering in Shed 3b. Mindy and Ian not there, but the rest of us had a productive couple of hours, mostly working on the new couple of songs we're going to try to slot into the setlist. God knows where, but we'll sort that out later.

Here we see Tod with a clothes peg on his nose. Is this because:
A. Charlie has dropped one?
B. Tod's trying to give up the white stuff?
C. It is Tod's impersonation of Dave Edmunds doing 'I hear you knocking'?

Farewell TWANG - hello TWALOG

Well, TWANG (the Tour Without Any New Gigs) has been abandoned, and thanks to the booking that has flooded in, next year's tour is now TWALOG (Tour With At Least One Gig). It may sounds like a small Welsh town, but it isn't. At least, I don't think so.

The slight problem with TWALOG is that Ian is unavailable for the gig that has flooded in - and, more reprehensively, he's off to a wedding. If they had only asked us to play....

Another rehearsal

Well, we tore ourselves away from the the vital job of measuring how much completely unforecast rain we'd had, and had a little gathering in shed 3b. Dave, Mindy and John couldn't make it, but it was nice to see Ian back behind the skins.
We ran through a few old favourites, tried a couple of new ones, and had a long and healthy debate about the tempo and placement of some others.
Most importantly, we had an in-depth trial of the new Band Name Generator, whch uses the colour of your underwear followed by the last thing you ate. Among the results were:
Blue Spaghetti.
Green Onions. (seems familiar)
Commando Risotto
Brown Bread
Skidmark Sausage
Chocolate Chocolate
Pus Custard
Stripey Wife
Stripey Someone else's Wife.

You get the idea.
