Rehearsals in Norwich 15th May 2011
We're not even back a week or we are already rehearsing for the Australia & New Zealand Last Supper Tour. Unfortunately Bob, the bass player, can't come so Pete Wilson has now joined us. Bob and Pete have been working on the songs together even before we went to the USA and Pete was with us in Brooklyn.
First a photo shoot with the band, after that we rang Allison to wish her a very Happy Birthday. As you can see from the photo below we all try to outdo each other with our vocals. A great warming up technique. Finally we start, Pete is a formidable bass player and we just play song after song. We finish early, so time for a quick pint.
Thanks everyone, especially Bob and Pete for working so hard. I will put on the photos of the last four gigs in the USA as soon as possible.

Steve thank you so much for making an old punk rocker happy I had the pleasure of seeing you in seattle and it was amazing to be a teen again for a moment. I also bought your book and it was a great read I was a bit skeptical at first that it was going to be a fluff ego piece done to make $ but it was well written, insightful, and an all around great from start to finish. I look forward to seeing your spoken word performance when it materializes I’m sure there is some stories and thoughts about the world that weren’t touched on in your book. Thanks again sir screw the critics and yes they still owe us a living (dignity)
