the World of Verbal Warning 23.06.08

We've done a couple of gigs since my last post, the Sitwell Tavern proved a worthwhile, we went down rather well with some metal heads in the crowd, who, in spite of not getting us to play a Discharge song despite repeated requests, we don't know any, were highly delighted with our version of Ace of Spades, and the evening was finished off by us being booked to play the legendry Rock and Blues festival at Pentwich, 15000 hairy arsed bikers expected so it should be our biggest crowd to date by a long way. Last Saturday we were back at the Greyhound, the first set was possible out most acomplished to date, we were rocking, used my Stingray bass in the first half and my Fender in the second, which was best? no one was saying except Lee of Weston who prefered the stingray. Some Lads were up from Essex for the Donington bike GP and couldn't believe there luck that they had stumbled across such a "great band", there words not mine, maybe we should be playing more gigs down south. At the break someone said we weren't loud enough, red rag to a bull, so we turned everything up to 11 and everybody went home with tinnitus, result.
Our new release, A Ploy Named Sue is very nearly ready and being the generous people we are it will be available for free download, the reasoning behind this? who the hell would pay for it?

Well I won my stingray bass on ebay, but was I ripped off? mine was the only bid at £749 until 6 seconds from the end when someone bid £811.50, 50p below my maximum bid, so I finished up paying £812, suspicious or wot? Now I have to wait for a gig to see if it cuts through as well as it does at practice, which is the sitwell tavern a week on Saturday.We had a practice last night without singer boy who's on holiday, so dummer boy, err sorry drummer boy, had the pleasure of me and guitar boy sharing lead vocals, I won't call it singing cause it certainly ain't, I think we've established that singer boy's job is safe.We've just landed a big gig at a biker festival at August Bank holiday, 700 hairy arsed bikers there and singer boy's told the organiser we know Jilted John, so we'd better get learning it.
