Our debut in Bromsgrove and at the Wishing Well. Strange pub, as the stage is in the middle, meaning your playing to two halves of the same room. The bar side semed to be content to let us be background music, but the other side- wow, what a good crowd! Audience particiaption from the off! This kind of gig is a joy to do and it was great to get some compliments (one punter  reconed we were a "Breath of fresh air" to most bands . Others admired Mr Millers equipment (ooh er) and clapped along and attempted to dance to "Lost and Found" (in 7/8 fact fans to 6/8 to 4/4 in 3 minutes). Paul offered the winning lady a drink! A very hot night for all of us ,we played for nearly 2 hours with a short break and were exhausted by the end. Somehow we summoned up the energy for an unexpectedly demanded encore. Ali bopped all night and sang her second only lead on "Here Comes The Rain Again". Paul sonically exploded at the appropriate points  (and played onstage darts!), Ian pummelled away and Steve kept the groove. Waz had a shed load of lead to do on this one and every solo was great. All in all a great night out!
