Gentlemen's Relish - ProfilesArchive

About Me

MyGen Profile Generator Originally formed in 1998 under the name of "Seepage" and subsequently "Ratchett", Gentlemen's Relish has seen various musicians in its ranks before arriving at the final lineup you all know and love. Well, some of you might know us and I think 2 of you may have liked us a bit.
Based at Loughborough University we had our peak (if you can call it that) in 2001 when we actually got off our arses and wrote some songs. Sadly, most of us graduated that year and the band is no more. There is always the hope that one day there will be the triumphant comeback tour.
As for where we all are now:

Barry is earning lots of money for playing computer games Bill is trying to make it (with slightly more success that with G Relish) with his other band the Unchosen.

Ched (I'm guessing) is in bed. Matt is currently starring in jazzpoweredtrain ...nice!

All systems go?

So, I decided to stick Gentlemen's Relish on myspace. Mostly out of pure selfishness and laziness. I've found out from my past couple attempts at joining or starting a band that people will always wan...
