Saw them in the Paisley Bungalow, er, some time earlier.

Vinnie played King Tut's a couple of years back - brought the house down with a cover of a Beta Band tune.

Anyway... we may have drifted off topic somewhat. I blame that HH.

Took me twenty years before I found out what the word meant, mind. And then I rather wished I hadn't.

Ah, but which definition? During a works night out I discovered that there are numerous variations, all of which will probably make you feel sick

and no, we didn't try any of them! Though I can't say the same for the hardcore who ended up in the "Buff" afterwards...

Anyone know the history of this structure or know why it is in the middle of the woods?


It was a water tower. You used to be able to climb right to the top of it. We used to hang about in it as kids.
