Auntie Annies - 17/1/12




Auntie Annies - 17/1/12


59 Sound
Casa Dega
Take you out
Further on down the line
Steady as she goes
Born to Run

I can't be arsed writing out a big fuck off essay with these any more.. so I'll just do random "show notes" like Metallica do...



  • Gig #3
  • Gig #2 with Aidan on the sticks
  • Tell me was renamed Take you out when McKay texted me a set list to type out ("as good a name as any")
  • I had already left work so I had to write it out on pages.
  • I was the first one there... again!
  • We learnt to play 59 Sound the night before, in place of Free Girl Now, we sound checked with it for extra practice..
  • Had tuning problems at the start (McKay forgot his cappo was on), I played "take me to the ball game" to avoid silence..
  • Patrick had to be witty (see pic) as I had to tune from drop d, he didn't bother and just told me to hurry up
  • Deerstalker organised the night, a great bunch of lads. (their bass player lent me his tuner too..see above)
  • I had two pints, seemed to be the right amount.
  • Two of my aunties went and my grandparents asked about the gig the next day (!)
  • We didn't fuck up the bit in Born to Run this time
  • I did fuck up the start of Steady as she goes though
(L-R), Me, McKay, Patrick & Lais (stolen from Aidan's Facebook..
I'm sure he won't mind...
Thus ending our "residency" in Annie's. We have about a month to our next gig at the end of February, and hopefully with some new material.. better get the scale book out!
