July 22, 2008: Well, what can we say? What an absolutely amazing couple of fundraising weeks! First of all we had our charity rock gig as Mad Dog Scone last Sunday which we now know raised £1300 for the CKDCF....watch out for the next one coming your way!
Then, we had the annual CKDCF fundraising weekend at the Ship Launch in Egremont which was hosted by Mark Andrews who once again did a fab job of the pub quiz and auction.....who also cost us a bit of money on that bloody dutch auction (most expensive bottle of plonk and box of Ferrero Rocher I've ever known)!
After the auction me and wayne got up and did a set with Francis on guitar and bv's, and Steph Worsley on bv's. Four songs were played from our soon to be released new album before Francis put down the guitar and became our drummer and Steve English joined us on electric guitar for a further four songs from Nearly Killed Keith....it was a real blast to hear the songs as a band again! Next up was the fantastic M T Arms who played a blinding set....nice one lads!
John & Wayne at the Ship Launch
Saturday night was race night down at the Ship Launch again, and although it was a small turnout of people (I'm guessing because most people must have showed up on the Friday cos it was packed) it was a really successful night raising a further £800! Watch the websites for the total amount. All in all a brilliant weekend with loads of dosh made for charity....thanks from us to everyone who took part or showed up....heres to a successful October event!
John & Wayne are two Cumbrian carpenters with a passion for music. They were working around the UK in 2001 when they joined Aquarian Nation and recorded their debut album 'Nearly Killed Keith'. The lyrics tell the story of life away from home working on dreary building sites when all the while they were just wanting to live their childhood dream of being musicians. As soon as the album was released they began a busy touring schedule with the likes of Francis Dunnery, Chris Difford, Glenn Tilbrook, Paul Young, Belinda Carlisle, Homespun and Marti Pellow. They are currently working on their second album which will hopefully be recorded this summer. More tour dates are to be added soon.
