I don't like getting too drunk then playing, we have enough trouble remembering all our songs as it is.

the gigs at this place tend to be an hour on, hour off, hour on, finishing at 1, so the getting drunk risk is very high

This is where the evil cocaine can be fantastic
It saved my arse when DJing loads of times. When you're on at 3am there's no other way of sobering up in an instant that I know of

should be able to function without
our band motto is "wing it" anyway. tonight is going to be experimental, trying out some new songs and stuff, some of which we've only ever played twice, and that was last night

In my teenage band
One night our bass played fell asleep sat on his amp whilst waiting for me to change a string.

Reet professional, we were....

Fucking great full-colour psychedelic posters for our gigs though. My brother is a talented artist. We never charged more than £1 to get in, because we were crap, I mean, hippies.

ha, that sounds good!
you sound like you were about as professional as we are

we were called Electric Head Funk
and we had no songs - just some riffs that we freaked out over.

We were remarkably popular on the traveller's site/squat party kind of scene - this had nothing at all to do with drug dealing. Or £1 entry fees.

Nothing at all.

I think I may have some bootlegs
and rehearsal recordings somewhere - they are probably excruciatingly bad. I fancied myself as quite the axeman back then. We were a kind of low-rent Ozric Tentacles - in our minds.
