Mr Clooney, how are you doing, you old rapscallion, you! Alas the Dec gig has been postponed as Ian The Bassist is due to become a daddy for the second time, around the original date. The gig will be rescheduled, so keep 'em peeled. And we'll be updating this tired old website shortly. Who said, "and what about the singer?"?!

For Mr Hazard! You Dirty Stop Out!! I tried to send you an email, but it wouldn't recognise the address. Anyway, good to hear from you and chuffed to see that you're still giving it some! As I explained to The Backs in the previous message, we don't often get to say who can support us, but if we get a chance I'll let you know. Would be good to see you in action again!!
|
Trip |
|
Dear Backs,
Thanks for the message, gentlemen! Sorry we didn't get to see all of your set, but what we did see we liked...and you were also a good bunch of lads. Methinks you were being overly harsh on your performance at the Rock Cafe - we all said what a good band you are.
I did pick up your CDs from the stage and assumed that I could pass them on to any venues that we play at [if that's okay?]. We don't often get the chance to choose who supports us at gigs, but if we do I'll certainly let you know. In the meantime, keep up the good work and keep in touch
p.s. Ah, the classic chocolate digestive...always a faultless choice of inter-pranial consumption.
|

hi guys
just thought we'd say thanks for letting us play with you, and use your equipment
you were great last night, and if you ever need support at any other time, we'd love to play with you again :)
if you're lucky, we may even finish the set, without faliing into underrehearsed covers haha
anyway, thanks very much, you were really nice
hope to see you again soon :)
rich (singer)
btw, we left you some cd's on the stage, but i dont know if you got them, but the songs are up on our myspace, if you want to hear how it should have gone ha
(biscuit choice is the classic chocolate digestive. sturdy, tasty, and, frankly, good for the heart)

Hi guys, hope you are doing ok. I got message for Tony, we are looking to support local bands. We play. Indie.Punk. sixties stuff rocked up a bit! We would do gigs fir nothing at the minute.

If this is true, then Senor Trip is truly a man of the people and a defender of humanity! Is this Vince a spy for the domineering capitalist forces of evil? Is he a lackey for the Royal Family of Britain? I will ambush him in the jungle and teach him the way of the Left!! I need a Hamlet...

I can vouch for the fact that Trip sat down for our National Anthem, refused to sing it and indeed at one point started reciting (under his breath) one of his favourite Fidel Castro speeches whilst stamping his feet (in cuban heels of course) at the mere thought that anyone may be in the slightest bit patriotic.
I have of course reported him to MI5 for treason and let us, fellow members of the Great British public, hope they do the decent thing....off with his baldy tool head!

Super Bob, it was a pity you couldn't face your sexuality in public, especially as you would have had moral support from Vince, the drummer. However, it was a great night with a riotous crowd and we should be back there sometime in June/July, so will keep you posted. We are playing at The Plough in Upton on 16th Feb, which I am assured is very accommodating to married men with gay tendencies.Alas, there are no forthcoming Baggies fixtures at Shrewsbury Town's Gay Meadow..now, can anyone tell me why Arsene Wenger crossed the road?

No Trip, it was you who did not understand the use / relevance of the word 'track' in connection to the pseudonym adopted.

Yes, thanks, it was a great selection of songs which I enjoyed singing, despite the "technical difficulties". However, I fear that you have misinterpreted your Genesis characters and that your missive was meant for He Who Would Be Mike. Anorakingly Yours, Trip

Stinky Pinky - thank you for your 'interesting question' regarding Smoke on t'Water. Now bearing in mind I know who you are I would ask you to refrain from such crass questions otherwise you will be exposed then ridiculed and finally run out of town if you persist. The story about the box of chocolate fingers and the greased up lama may just have to surface.....

Hi Daz, Glad that you enjoyed the gig - I know that we did! I don't think that I met you on Friday, but we will certainly bear your band in mind for any future supports, although more often than not we don't have a say in who the support band is - the venues tend to book local acts at most of the gigs we play. Have you got a website that we can have a look at [can even pass on your details to gigs we play at and if ever we are offered a gig that we can't make we could always let you know]? Anyway, hopefully speak soon and don't forget to bring Mrs Daz next time!

I think you mistake hobby for mercy killing.
Do you have any idea what it is like to be in a band (albeit a successful one) with Trip and his 'leanings' (political or otherwise)? I bet he hasn't told you of the time he was caught in Maggie Thatcher's dressing room at TV-AM. Has he? Thought not.

Gary Pugh |

I would like to suggest that Trip gets to kill the drummer, whose name I can't remember, by using a stapler, two elastic bands and a splintered drumstick. Thank God there are people like Trip who care about the world we live in! And he's a great frontman!
|

|
Ladies and Gentleman - I would like to apologise on behalf of The FE for Trip's pointless, worthless and clueless rant. He has nothing better to do with his time although we have suggested he takes up a hobby to fill the obvious life vacuum he has.
COMPETITION TIME - please send in your suggestions for a hobby for Trip to participate in. The best one wins a very special prize! Winning entry at discretion of the best bloke in the band (obviously me).

I saw William Shakespeare walk into a pub in Stratford upon Avon last week. The barman took one look at him and said, "You're bard". Okay, so it's a sh*t joke, but it was either that or rant for ten minutes about the unworthiness of Labour, Conservatives or Georgie Bush to lead their respective nations as they are despicable tossers of the lowest order serving their own needs to stay in power whilst suppressing the voice of their people and hacking other nations' people to bits. See, I told you the joke was better!

Well boys following previous performances at the mars bar, I have come to the artistic desicion that one of two things need to happen. Mr 'who ate all the pies' grove needs to loose weight as his paunch is hangs further south over the top of his bass every time I see him play.
Advice : mark king got it right and sid vicious did : - hang it lower or jack it up nice and high ! you know what i mean.
Secondly you need a professional tamboureen player.

Dear Sir Loin, As you are aware, any "rump" steaks I may have are very rare. And the chocolate sauce is often dire-here. Are you still enjoying prodding "starfish" on remote beaches?
|
Sir Loin |
|
Trip - at least it wasn't 'rump' steak with a 'chocolate' sauce which I know is your favourite.
|

Dear Our Drummer, I met a business "friend" of yours who confirmed your comments as being true. Although, he also described your "filling" as not so much a Man Sandwich as a Minute Steak.
|

As always Trip you are correct. I do enjoy a double choc delight but I prefer to call it a Man Sandwich between two chocolate saucepots.

Dear Rubber Legs, Thanks for the message and I'm glad that you've found a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife and beautiful garden, even if they aren't yours! Jeff did say that he would sort out another booking, so hopefully we'll be back. We do intend to add new numbers to the set, but these things always take time [not least agreeing on which ones!]. I think maybe a Green Day song will be next on the list. As for dancers, I have contacted Pans People and they may be available for the next Tackeroo gig, providing the Rest Home lets 'em out. Finally, may I say that a bourbon with double choc delight is an excellent choice. Our drummer also enjoys a "double choc delight" when he is away on business trips....See you soon!
|
rubber legs |
|
just returned from the back of beyond, hey! this is not my beautiful house , how did i get here ? Another great gig at the Tackeroo. Almost the same playlist , but what the hell, why spoil a good thing ? We need more people hopefully dancers amongst them. Thanks for a great night hope Jeff has booked you again as your other gigs are too infrequent and far away. biscuit of choice would have to be bourbons dunked in drinking chocolate for a double choc delight.

Dear Helsbels and Madame snusnu, I hope that you have both sobered up by this morning! Must admit that the band [minus Timothy, who had to meet his mate, Phil McCracken, in his favourite gay bar, "East Benders"] finally got to bed in the Doghouse at 6.30am! Another cracking night at the Axe was had by all, despite the heat. Good to see you dancing....I thought you had just slipped on the sweaty floor!! We're back in November, so come up and say hello!

only us! Great time was had again last night! Think we are still drunk! That was teh first time we got up to dance in teh first set but you guys were too good not to dance too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel as though I must protest at the terms drummer and 'real job' particularly as I have heard that the meandering old ponce known as Trip has never had a 'real job' in his life. Except the 'job' he performed in the aforementioned Clapham Common toilets. To be a drummer is a lucky thing and I should know as it was McCartney who played most of my parts on record and I got paid for it!

Mr de Homo, I can confirm that Mr Trip was involved in a fracas at Clapham Common public conveniences last month. However, following extensive investigations it appeared that Mr Trip was passing said conveniences and was alerted by screams coming from them. He dashed into the topilets to give assistance and found the other three members of The Festivals Experience grappling with a local Peruvian tranny called Mr Blo. Trip fought Mr Blo off. It later transpired that the Festival boys were in fact "entertaining" Mr Blo, described as 6'3", with tissian hair and incredible biceps, and the screams that Mr Trip heard were, in fact, squeals of pleasure and delight. The members of The Festivals were indentified by a passing fan, who recognised Quentin, describing him as having the look of a Mongolian with the hair of a gyspy. Mr Trip has since been awarded a medal for his courage in the face of scary toilet team games.

Hi luvvies - can I let you in to a 'little' secret and the real truth behind Trip's constant insinuations that the rest of the band are gay? Well just 3 words darlings - 'Clapham Common toilets' and you know what sweeties he wasn't 'up' to much.
Ciao.
PS I like the look of Quentin - he has the air of a Mongolian gypsy about him.

Dear Helsbels and Madame Snusnu, What an incredible gesture - to change the Hen night plans just to come and see us!! I'm not sure even one of us would rearrange plans to be with us!! Anyway, thanks for your efforts and we'll catch you at the gig. That's rock!

Herr von Chavburger, leave Ronaldinho alone, you skinhead! It's guys like him who make the rest of us look better...or are you really jealous of his comparative good looks? I now have to go and console Little Ron as he hasn't spoken to anyone since he read your comments...he just stays in his bedroom playing with his plastic Oompa Loompas and his Subutteo.

Sorry that you'll miss the next couple of gigs, but congratulations on your impending betrothal and good luck for the Hen night and the wedding. We have rearranged the November date at the Axe and will now be there on Nov 18th. See you soon.

FAO Katie - this may possibly save your life - please read.
Please understand that Quentin's marital status is already shrouded in mystery following his unfortunate and unintentional clandestine meeting with the Pagan Society one night in the woods of Worcestershire following a drunken night of particularly ardous mountain biking.
I would suggest you leave him be unless you want to be sacrificed by the many Wicca women who now look up to him as 'Thor's Hammer' (although apparently he has made a few Thor in the past).

George, if you don't stop dissing the Festivals boys you'll be the first to feel the flames of eternal damnation licking at your lily Texan ass. I've seen them at every gig they've done (obviously - I'm omnipotent aint I?) and I can vouch for the fact they're the best band on the whole darn planet!
St Paul keeps pestering me to take him to one of their gigs, but I always put him off - he's leathered after about three pints and always starts wak=ffling on about how undervalued he is, what with only being a gatekeeper after 2,000 years' continuous employment. Wot a w*nker.

Hi Jenn, Steph & Leanne! Sorry, but I've only just looked at the Guestbook, otherwise I would've replied earlier! Vince is so punctual that he responded almost immediately [but he doesn't have much else to do all day when he's locked up in the Institution]. Anyway, thanks for visiting the website and I'm chuffed that you enjoyed the gig - I know that we did. What a cracking little venue it is and although it wasn't a sell-out audience you made enough noise to spur us on. Plus, Quentin usually draws a male following, so it was good to have some glamour at a gig for once! Keep in touch and keep your eyes on this site as we'll post the next date on here as soon as it's arranged. Byeee...

Dear Vince, I have visited your guestbook following a tip-off from Doctor Steinberg, an old family friend who is drawn to the, frankly, silly and seedy world of beat music. He noticed mention of my family name in your message to a Mrs Muriel Splicer-Cable. May I take this opportunity to put the record straight and inform you [and your presumably hippy audience] that Mrs Splicer-Cable is no longer a relative of our branch of the family. She was at one time, but an unfortunate incident involving my nephew, Mrs Splicer-Cable and our then gardener's testicles has meant that we no longer maintain contact. Perhaps if my nephew ever recovers enough to leave "the Institution" we may begin to forgive her... I digress, but I wanted to put the record staright that we are a decent, hard-working and law-abiding family and we want no ....oh, hell! Vince, I love you like my pony....
|
VINCE |
|
Miss Splicer-Cable, lovely to hear from you - are you related to the Phono-Cables from Leeds?
My photo really does bely the fact that for a number of years I have endured what can only be described as a miserable experience in 'performing' with such a set of unwashed, uncouth and unpleasant mongs. I have managed to stay as fresh faced as the day we first met against all the odds.

I am local Vice President of the Spam Appreciation Council[SAC]and quite frankly we are considering legal action against anyone using a website to slanderously deprecate the fine name of Spam. This wonderful creation of mixed spiced pork and ham helped keep this nation strong during times of hardship and strengthened the backbone of the British people and I will not keep seeing it dragged through the virtual mud of indecent websites. Perhaps if more of our children were made to eat Spam, they too would develop strong moral fibre, instead of lounging in telephone boxes and shopping centres with their trousers half-way down their buttocks, terrorising the frail and the elderly. I blame that Montague Python for the resurgence in Spam-bashing. I am sure that your beat combo appeals to some young people...I myself once purchased a pop record by Engelbert Humperdinck...but that does not excuse the vicarious use of Spam on your website. Please take this as a friendly warning - failure to cease will lead to a call from SAC's solicitors. Yours, Miss M Splicer-Cable p.s. I do find that the photograph of Mr V Le Magma rather appeals to me - he looks wholesome, settled, sensible and well-fed, unlike the others in your combo. They remind one of the starving junkies one might find at the back of a Kwik Save in Kettering on a wet Friday night. A good square meal of delicious fried Spam and regular church attendance would set them on the road to recovery, I'm sure. Mind you, I do find Christian makes me moist....

Firstly, in reply to "Martin" [28 Sept], there is no truth whatsoever in the rumour that I won "Rear of the Year". Anyone who has ever been unfortunate enough to witness me al fresco would know that I do not possess a "rear", merely a hinge. Can I just say that I really appreciate you all visiting our site and maybe one day we will see you at a gig! Now, where did I put that long, creamy chocolate eclai....?

Now pay attention because this is an informed and incisive critique of the state of modern music in the post-Joy Division era and not simply the ramblings of a webmaster trying to find out if a particularly lengthy post will cause problems for the guest book.
I wondered if you lads could consider a cover of that nice Charlotte Church's latest single? Like Trip, she is a former winner of Rear of the Year and I'm sure that she can dunk her biscuits along with the best of them. Although strangely, when I try to imagine whether or not she is an arrowroot or garibaldi kind of a girl, the mental picture I conjure up is invariably of her struggling to cope with a thick, creamy and unfeasibly long chocolate eclair.

I heard that the tear in Mr Wallace's eye wasn't the only tear present on the campsite that weekend...word has it that Quentin also shed a tear, although it wasn't from his eye and it required an extravagant array of serviettes and napkins to control the overflow. I believe help was [quite literally] at hand from MeJulie. All in all, a top weekend, crowned by the presence around the camp fire of Jerry Garcia and The Messiah. Mind you, I'm not convinced that the "cigarette" I was handed by a man in a hood and shades was a Lambert & Butler. It's all just a dream...

Hey guys,
A triumphant return to the Marr's Bar, here in Worcester. Another blinding set, augmented by Trip's decision to play the set without his guitar plugged in! Early signs of senile dementia perhaps?
Really wanted the guys in Cum Up & See Me to come and see you but other commitments got in the way. Will definitely aim to catch you again before the summer is out.
We're starting to play further afield and will keep you posted with details of potential venues. Also, we're trying to establish a regular music night at a local venue - Evolution in Lowesmoor, Worcester - will keep you posted on progress as you might be interested in playing there if it takes off. I know a lot depends on availability/suitability of the P.A. system.
Catch you later.
p.s. An assortment of Peak Freen's finest are on their way to you

Hello Kelly,
Thanks for the enquiry. Glad your pal thought that we were decent enough to tell you about us. We had a great night. Super sound for us guys on stage and the audience really got into the show.
At the moment, we do not have much contact with venues in the south, although we do have an agent who is based in Guildford. If you know any venues that have live bands near you (especially those with their own in-house pa systems), we can send them a demo CD and pack in an attempt at getting a gig.
If you want to check on our dates, pleases have a look at the website, the gig listing is current and correct.
Hope to see you sometime at a future gig.
Quentin Spentlove.

Tony,
Just wanted to say that I was really impressed with you guys on Friday. It was a great performance. I came away both humbled and inspired and as Julia will tell you, that's high praise from me. I'm not easily impressed.
Fantastic set list. Some brave choices and you did them all so well. Great musicians one and all, but what a front man?
Some can sing, some can work a crowd. Few can do the two. You're one of the few.
It's a pity that the venue hadn't done more to publicise it. You deserved a bigger crowd. They wouldn't have been disappointed. I don't know whether you've tried to play Drummonds here in Worcester, but you would go down very well on a Friday night.
Amway, enough already. Aiming to see you on the 28th at The Shed.
Keep on running.
