The Star Wars Gig

For part two of the May Bank Holiday feast of music, we hit The Fox at Bramdean, setting up in the garden next to the bouncy castle. It was a delight to have Dan joining us again for the day, giving Todd's voice a break, and letting us do a few more songs that weren't Dan-free. Pictures below reflect the day perfectly - a young audience stunned into silence by our playing, Dave giving it what for, and a member of the Fox's staff who couldn't resist the urge to dance on the tables.....



 
 

At last....the Mudansha Tour starts!!

After months of preparation and rehearsal, the Mudansha Tour started. During these months, we've spent many hours in Shed 3b, honing our mediocre musical skills to the point where we felt fit to hit the road again. We tried breaking in a new guitarist to replace Dan, but after a couple of rehearsals and being given too much home work, Will decided he wouldn't join us after all. A shame.
Undaunted, we persevered, and after a false start at the Greatham Inn (get well soon, landlady), the Tour kicked off at the Bull Inn in Bentley. Some of the locals took the news rather badly, it seems....




 
It was the perfect way to get going again - a warm welcome, a sparse but enthusiastic crowd, and we played very well.
