What a strange couple of gigs, firstly the Oldham Wizzards MCC bash at Greenfield nr Oldham then the A8 Virago classic club and local nutters/care in the community outing at Birmingham.
As we blew our PA system up a couple of weeks ago we had "sweaty teccy Andy" with us for the first gig at Greenfield and his humongus PA system. " I can have this baby up and running within the hour" he told us....................... nearly 3 hours later we were still fiddling around trying to get some noise out of the kit with the Oldham Wizzards getting pissed off and threatening to cast spells on us if we didnt get on with it.
First set and we were flat as a witches tit, the wizzards looked restless and things were looking grim especially when Paul our beloved leader screwed up freebird beyond the relms of how much you can screw things up. Things were bad so taking a gamble we decided to all get pissed.
Second set, we were magnificent, I dont remember it but I am sure we were. The wizzards were all wizzarding around having a jolly old time and I recall large breasted women dancing round to "The Jack"
As I write this I cant help sniggering as Ray Mears is explaining how soft the fur is on beavers, childish I know.
Saturday night 5pm and its down the M6 to Birmingham for a bikers do. Our PA is still fooked so we hire one from Craig & Andy. How big is the venue they say? we say its a biker rally it could be a stadium bring loads of stuff like big heavy boxes and speakers. Paul rings and says shall we take the small guitar cabs, no we say bring the big ones its a bikers do and it could be a stadium. Do we need lights and things, of course its a bikers do and it could be a stadium bring lights, smoke, pyro, and some extra heavy boxes........ Anyways we end up in a rugby club the size of a small shed with enough gear to register a 7 on the richter scale and a very worried looking bar steward looking on as we pile speaker after speaker inside.. (By the way Ray is talking about mooses now) What a good night it turned out to be, mad virago owners in fancy dress well up for a party and an immense sound from our huge PA system. Thanks to Andy and Craig for coming down and doing the sound for usand thanks for having us to the Brummies.
Next up its The Bike and hound on Friday and the return of our PA System.
Miss Frank has just been booted off the X factor as I wind this up and it's a shame as the blonde one has cracking cans, never mind come on John & Edward
