Pix from the Gig #1 . A lovely day at the seaside.

Here we see the stage we are to play on, it comes complete with classic rock roadies, and 3 members of the popular beat combo "Hawkwind"

I didn't take many pictures as there was a lot of chaos, but I'm sure some will turn up in the email. ..Gig went well, despite having to stop our set 75% of the way in to take an international phone call from the author Michael Moorcock, we carried on afterwards but still had to drop 2 songs. Apart from that it went as well as we could hope.

Sorry I couldn't make it Steve. I had about 6 hours sleep over the past two days.
Glad to hear it went well.

Rock on...

I'll be looking for you on YouTube...

Blimey, Hawkwind (best not ask how they got that name)! I have copies of their very early LPs - great vinyl covers ..

Nice stage.

Those tables don't look too stable with all of that PA on top!
I'm also seeing big feckoff washlights at just the right height to really piss you off. Nice.

So what's the score with the artwork? Those aren't originals are they - my Hawklords poster in much smaller.

Nice coving! I'm glad it went well.

Yeah, nice coving :)

They are originals Simon, there was loads of 70's HW stuff scattered around the place. ..What happened to Jagged?

I have no idea. I texted him from the airport to say I was sleep deprived and unlikely to make it back home after the gig, and assumed he would be going anyway. Didn't he show?

I didn't see him, granted there were many many Jagged lookie likies there.. but I didn't see our one..

I take it you didn't get my message then. Did you give me a hooky phone number?
Truth was I wimped out of riding down by myself. The prospect of the cold journey home with no accomplice was too much for me to bear after my recent solo Wales trip.
