Yes its here even before there's any music out there! After a break from my previous band I've been writing new songs and rehearsing with Bobby Jamieson (ex-Some Fine Noise) and Liam Rankin (ex-Painbirds-turned-recorder-of-music). Thank you to them for getting me to pull my finger out.
You should see all sorts of fancy shit on this site if I make friends with someone wot has got IT pure-skill. Like photos and some downloads of demos I'm working on at home. Bobby, Liam and myself have been asked to play the Forest Cafe in Edinburgh on the 23rd July with the wonderful Saint Jude's Infirmary. My favourite Edinburgh band. Andy asked us to come up with a name. A job I tried to fob off on the other two with pitiful results.
Slut Actress, Tim Brooke-Taylor, The C*nts, The F*cks, and Edinburgh Bus Drivers were all possibilites. Pathetic! It's Liam's idea to get a genuine collective of musicians playing on each others stuff. If he manages this in Edinburgh without the evil ego making its presence known amongst members this sounds like a great idea. If it's good enough for the East Neuk....
So, the collective is called 'The Folk' and the first night of live music by 'The Folk' will be 'The Folk (featuring The Gadgee)'. That's me. I'll be asking some other 'folk' to help out on the night with triangles and stuff.
