After Rachel decided she had enough of being penniless, guitarless and almost virginal, she waded hip deep into the internet only to come across a pale shell of a man who said he needed a drinking partner for icebound submarine sesssions. They met with promises of carnations and hats and were greeted with confusion, hammering together a band made of feathers, glitter and uncomfortable sexual tension.And then came Harriet...Arriving in a hail of sparkles and scrawled notes and a handbag made of boys, she caught the squirming tunes by the throat, feeding them one by one through her clever piano fingers.James is a boy who plays the drums...At the very last minute Kalidah decided to add drums! Planning to use their loud noises to keep the wolves away, they enlisted the help of wolf-scarer James. Unique amongst drummers, James uses subtlety to pacify the angry canines, building a traditional band exactly edispu nwod! ............................................................ ............................................................ ....Plain MySpace Layouts by Iron Spider
