James Rocks!!!

Afternoon all!

I gotta publish this one. James, the stepson, did his last project for his college music course last week. He organised and played at a gig that he and his mates set up as their final project. It was held in the Bury St Edmunds Pot Black snooker club. They used the stage area in the downstairs part of it. There were about 5 or 6 bands on the program but I only watched a bit of the act before James' band and then his performance. I didn't expect too much out of it as they kept describing it as punk metal. When they actually started it was much better than expected. They played together as tight as a ducks ass. No mistakes or fuck ups or anything...

This is a purple James playing the base and howling his head off. The songs they did were pretty good. Most of them written by themselves.
This is Ash the drummer. He played very tight and hard, bloody excellent!

This is again the noisy maestro howling at the smallish crowd... Well, saying that, when they first started off a mosh pit was started in front of the stage but the course leader spoiled that pretty quickly... spoil sport...
Look at this! I have never seen the lazy bugger break out into a sweat... hahahahaha!!!!
This is Jimmy the singer. He was very good. Unfortunately for James and Ash he is already in another band so this basically was their last gig... That boy sure can grunt and howl! He also does a good howler monkey impression hahahahaha!!!

Some more of the wandering minstrel... Even the banter between songs was all in good spirit. He had been accused in previous gigs of not speaking to much but now he opened up and even tossed in some jokes... Fuck me, he is coming out of his shell .... hahahaha!
Here is a red James.
And a green one.... Bloody alien....
Oh, and an angry blue one hahahahaha!!! This week he got his result from the teachers and he got a distinction for the gig and the organisation, well done dude! He is now looking for a new guitar player so if anyone knows anyone that can play heavy metal, likes beer, women and green, drop me a comment and I will pass it on. You will have to live anywhere near Sudbury, Bury St Edmunds, Mildenhall etc....

OK, I'm off on my travels again next week, going to do a training course for some frogs in Lyon. Not my choice but my gaffer is forcing me to do it... Parlez Vouz Francais? No, SOD OFF!!! Hehehehehehe!!!!

Cheerio,

Alex.
