Band Members: Rob 'Lips' Hillier sings, plays the six string and the three-fingered horn.
Unwanted and unloved, Lips ran away from home at an early age before being persuaded to take a new direction in his life by a famous Mod guitarist and winning a lifetime's supply of hair gel at a local church fete. Now he skins fat people alive and hides his ruthlessness and determination behind a fake smile, a cheap suit, and one heavily practised guitar solo.

Paul 'The Preacher Man' Kish blows the shiny silver 'bone and claps.
Father to over a thousand children and a lifetime fugitive from the Belgian railways, The Preacher Man can often be found honking out a message of redemption through the medium of strange beards and an insulting sense of humour. Rather too fond of canapés and still struggling to pass grade 1, he is nonetheless a master of self-deprecation.

Dave 'The Flyingbassman' Raven does the dog-house bass all night long.
Born with an uncanny ability to leap from the highest stage, the Flying Bassman breeds double basses in the back of a white van and can often be shy about his talents when not taking his tool for a walk on the dance floor. Never happier than when he is slappin’ his way through a set, he has often been compared to some of the greats, but not very favourably.

Matt 'The Juggernaut' Baxter hits skins and lids.
Known as 'Jugs' to his friends, he burst onto the scene with his loud and enthusiastic attitude to life. Now just loud, he has been thrown out of the house to practice in other people's gardens and his love of playing in the band is sometimes marked by an unwillingness to brig songs to an end when expected. I the world of drummers you ca tell that he is the genuine article: likely to keep you awake all night, yet still capable of borig you senseless in discussion about various merits of the differet woods from which his sticks are made.

Barry 'One Hand' Holloway strokes the old joanna and tickles a six string.
A regrettable accident while setting bear traps in his kitchen resulted in a left hand good for nothing but backslapping, boxing, and hailing taxis. Undeterred, and with an almost supernatural sense of harmony, Ol’ One Hand decided to take up tickling ivories so that he could write songs to tell his tragic story to an adoring public and celebrate being able to cook his dinner in a bear-free environment.

Ned 'The Reed Splitter' Crow breathes through growling bent horns.
Proud owner of a large pair of hounds-tooth trousers, the Reed Splitter is unusual in that he actually knows something about music. Having overdosed on ginger wine as a teenager, he is now fully rehabilitated with only a few lasting side effects. When taking a break from the day job building sound-proof rooms for new parents, he pulls the crowds with his knee-in-the-bell horn-honking routine and goes home early to dye his eyebrows.

Occassional Extras:

George 'The Cheese' Cheeseman
The Cheese keeps his hand in by sliding behind the kit when the occassion demands that we be reminded of our humble rustic roots.

Andreas 'The Swede' Erikson
The Swede used to be a regular at the champagne keyboard until he decided to get a life and go home. He now puts in an occassional appearance when there's food on the table.
