A couple of weeks ago there was a benefit In a Pub for a great old mate and a great old roadie who's currently fighting Mr.C . He was our roadie back in the days of P.A. columns on the side of the stage and great stonking stacks in the frontline and maybe the Kick through the P.A. so the the drummer didn't up with an overinflated right leg and up walking around in circles . So this guy lugged all the gear in and out maybe 3 times a night and 4 on the weekend . We didn't have a Hammond and Leslie ...that was a 2 roadie band ...thank god for miss amphetamine . "NormanE the bad roadie"
Lots of people from back then turned up and did their sets but we were behind the eightball a bit cos our singer/guitarist bit the dust a while back but dammit Norm was OUR roadie so the pig {keyboards} who works with John Paul Young over here got Danny ,JPY's son, to learn a couple of our songs and an old mate Phil Manning stepped in on guitar . Ratboy came up from Melbourne to do the drums ...Pig coached Danny up in Newcastle on the songs and we had a ten minute soundcheck to get reaquainted with it all and we did these two songs we hadn't played for 35 years or so [oh sweet Jesus]. Anyway I just thought you should hear Danny sing ....he's a little ripper
There will be better sound soon and if I can get a wav. from the desk I'll get it for you , but really.......... give him a listen from the camcorder..... he stands out and up .
