As a respectable member of the local drinking circuit, benny took it upon himself to one day, after several amber nectars, that it would be a great idea to start a band. Many laughed at the idea but benny turned to lenny, kenny, whatever! and said what yo think? as len, ken for the purpose of this ill call him len was quite inhebriated too naturally he agreed. So the duo set out to take the local boozer by storm and got to work on there plan, lenny, who used to play guitar, got to work on some classic covers like, blitzkreig bop and hurry up harry. But they were lacking a beat! so fellow pisshead Tone Deff took on the job. Using lennys drums tone did his best to learn the songs and after a few weeks of practice they were ready for pub domination! Poor old ted, the pubs 133 year old regular was getting ready for a quiet birthday celebration when, A 1 2 3 4... boomed out the speakers and that was it, the band were born, but as any self respecting band knows, it takes more than a 10 watt amp, practice drums and a karaoke p.a to make a band, so after the debut show, benny, lenny and tone decided it needed more. On a quiet saturday lunch time, Crunch was on his way to the match and called in the local oasis for a pre match drink, mobbed by the 3 wannabes crunch was asked if he would be interested in playing lead guitar because benny knew, crunch was a master at bending the strings. Crunch gave a polite no, so the band sulked and got another 20 pints down them to drown there sorrows, however, a 5 nil home win does alot to a man and in true football fan style, celebrated with several ales afterwards. When he arrived home he slurred the words to his good wife about his propersition to be in the band, why not? , these words rung out in crunch 's earoles until, after much thought, replied with a text to benny saying ok. So after 2 practices with the rest of them it was time for the foursome to showcase their new lead guitarist. Still not satisfied with the line up the band needed a bass line, enter the 4th dimension, another well respected drinker and full time diabetic, the 4th took much longer to make his decision to join, but after few more gigs, the 4th decided the band were worth more than playing the local every couple of months. So a full 5 member band were ready to take on the rest of the world and even stared to play in time together! but, the evil force that is the piss demon took hold of tone deff and his place in the band had to be terminated, bollocks! no drummer, not much of a band is it? but then the light shone upon them and all the way from deepest, darkest...yardley, enter, danny boy! and that was that, so far, so good, everything is going well for them and its onwards and upwards! LETS HAVE IT!!! |
