If you need a 'Fatso-in-black' to play, ...

Re: Sundown Specials Finchley CC last game

Dom, do you think we could rustle up a team from on here? Wanderers-in-Black possibly? Maybe we could try and arrange fixtures against other bands followers? There's certainly plenty of cricket-related history attached to The Stranglers. You obviously bowl and I'm a RH top order batsman who bowls me...

Before Gent, I'll be in Terville, in France.
Anyone else there?
No. A friend of many of us on this forum, Hans, actually lives in Ghent and isn't going to miss a home-town gig!

Re: bass distortion pedals

You could always loosen the speakers in your cab/combo, that'll give the sound a bit of something, although you are also in danger of the speaker flying through the front of the grill and getting a fecking great magnet behind the ear'ole!

Re: Your favourite TV theme tune?

White Horses by Jackie Lee, fantastic song, twangy guitar and I never even lliked the programme, too much of a girlie thing, all those horses and stuff!
