Anyone Can Play Guitar

He's Just Like One Of Us.

Imagine my musical excitement when i spotted Mr. Lou Reed (right) at Pisa International airport yesterday.

There was an amusing juxtaposition between the guy who sang 'Heroin' perched under a cafe slogan of 'Food & Relax'.

Absolute. Undeniable. Legend.

Just a shame i was way, way too scared to say hello.

Clydesdale.

ANNOUNCEMENT.

Our fast fingered, faithful, nodding bass player Andy Clydesdale played his final show with us at Notting Hill Arts Club last night.  There was a dancing hippy, it kinda kicked off and was lots of fun.

Check out his photography and stuff here:

...and of course, his City Shanty Band:

We're gonna miss him very much.....like Michael missed Ben.
