I remember a time when handbags were flailed at each other, not compared for stylishness.

A thought crossed my mind in the lead up to last Saturday's gig and I chuckled to myself.

The band start "Dead Ringer" in a Live X-Cert stylee.

A few short bars in, they suddenly stop.

Bubba goes up to the microphone, eyebrows angry, and he says, "Did someone say, "Wonky".

I remember 4MH used to do Always The Sun and I think they did Skin Deep once.

Ah, already the first hint of set list bickering.
It really is like the real thing isn't it?

With this in mind perhaps we should start a heated debate about the mk1 Straighten Out line up versus the current mk2.

Bubba, your not a cricket fan are you?
I tried to make him laugh, He didn't get the joke, and then he said I wasn't right in the head.
