About Me

December 20th 2006...so we were in the pub. That's where all the best ideas begin to ferment. Keith turned up and announced that he had a bit of a do planned at the Hand and Dagger near Preston on the 9th February, a charity do called 'singing for someone else's supper', where musicans from all over the North West would turn up and literally sing for someone else's supper, the proceeds going to some hungry folk. We'd had a few and, although we'd never played together, suddenly it seemed like getting on stage and doing some songs would be a good idea, so in the new year, we set to rehearsing a handful of tunes. We had four, but on the night so many people wanted to play, there was only time in our slot to play three of them. Never mind - the landlord requested we play a full gig, so in a few months time we had a three hour set to fill. Hmmm, maybe we could do with a few more songs, so we started writing; Troubadour was brewing....
