    I suppose these days even cheap equipment can record quite easily, and I suppose for small venues that's OK.
    Erm, not very well to be honest!! we're trying to pass the whole promotion thing over to people who actually know what they're doing in this kinda thing - we have a myspace site but that's bout it.

    Yes we do have a CD, recorded at a superb studio in London using ProTools

    One or two guitars.

    We're going to do some Everly Brothers, Elvis Presley,
    Bill Haley.

    So we're completely different

    We might have a real double bass player. We might merge with a jazz group.

    But the question is, is how to persuade them to do this

    ...hmm the singer was going to some swing anyway so we might just throw a few rocakabilly numbers in and hope they don't notice.
    Just the one guitar mate - me!!

    I play Bass on a couple and the Bass player/Singer plays guitar on those ones.

    The one before that choked on vomit - it wasn't his own vomit though.
