    Don't we all look so happy? That particular gig was out in the sticks somewhere for a private party. One big marquee, and a very disgruntled farmer as it was 'a bit louder than I expected, guys'. Still, at least he paid us!

    Expressive concentration maybe? Glad you got paid. :)

    (Reply to Jill's post). Actually, that was during a soundcheck, I think I was trying to see if I could get the engineer to tweak things as my guitar was giving a lot of feedback. In the end, I bought the guitar you see in the other picture. Known as a 'silent guitar', the fact that it doesn't have a body prevents resonant feedback, with the result that I could crank up the amp to my heart's content and produce a reasonable 'classical guitar' tone (although the quality is a little off from a proper Spanish guitar). :)

    LOL Alan -- we tried to remove it from the drummer's head, but it was superglued on. Later, after we had plied him with a few drinks, we discovered that he was hooked on film depictions of Robin Hood -- so much so that he decided a Friar Tuck haircut was the order of the day. He also watched far too much early Black Adder, which really cinched the idea...

    No, really.... you are right, it's a bad hat, nearly as bad as my joke!
