    have to get to see you when I get chance. Love getting out to see live local music. We never get weddings as we’re a little heavy! Although it’s something I want to look into as you cN make more money from a wedding than 3 or 4 pub gigs!!

    Lately, I' had been playing with 3 different acts (duo/trio) or a combination of those, as I usually get the bookings, nowadays- I just play hand percussion instruments as it's easier. It's only occasionally that I do dep gigs/recording work on a drum kit. When it all gets back to normal (if ever!) it'll be good to catch up. I remember coming along to your solo gig in a Hendon Social Club a few years back.

    I wouldn't say I like any particular genre, if it was a good song it was a good song irrespective of who it was. I do feel however I was spoiled by people like The Stranglers, The Specials, The Beat, Madness, Tears for Fears, the Ramones, OMD
    Hells teeth I even had "Colour By Numbers" and "Seven and the Ragged Tiger" on cassette in the car

    Won't be everyone's cup of tea, but I do love a bit of early Genesis (up to Steve Hackett leaving is the era I like)

    pleased about that marcus, i have a wide taste in music but my preference is soul tamla northern soul as i think you are aware, anyway i feel that without a wide and varied repertoire on the club pub and functions scene one trick pony groups just don't make it. pleased you diversify.

    There was a bar I used to go in at Tyne Dock to play pool and we'd put this on the juke box about 5 times in a row. Landlord used to whinge like ****.
