Music Meet 06/03

Hi everyone,
We had a great rehearsal yesterday.
The manager of the Abbey Tavern in Kentish Town very kindly let us use the back room of his pub free of charge so we ensured that we bought a few pints of Guinness to make it worth his while :-)
We had a great turn out and it was really good to see Neil, Dan and Dave (although he only came in to say he couldn't stay) again as they had to miss the last few meetups. Even Rachel came after telling everyone she wouldn't be able to make it!

The sound of the band was really coming together as we played through the songs again. We had some new instruments as well with kazoos, a melodica and a clarinet being added to the lineup. Topped off with Simon's guitar noodling and Brian's fretless bass slides, we made some fantastic "nice noise". We worked a lot on the vocal arrangement with some great harmonising backing vocals now present on a few of the songs.

We had a bit of exciting news when Warren told us that at the next musical meet, we were going to be visited by a representative of "Race For Life" who might want us to play in front of thousands of adoring fans at the race for life event.

Lets keep up the great work. Coming up is a ride round Richmond Park on Saturday and another musical meet on the 20th at Ken's. Now go learn the chords for "Ain't no mountain"!
