Can't remember who it was, but last night someone said Vinylhead is a "king among men" and how bloody right they are

What a great day, a big thank you to Ben Roosterman and ChickenboneJohn and the venue staff not forgetting the fabulously hilarious Vynilhead, King Size Slim and Lewis Floyd Henry. A final thank you to Alan for recording the event. Can't wait until next year.

Cheers RTZ. I might have had a couple of cheeky pints, but I can't play after more than two. I just go to pieces trying to multi-task remembering lyrics and chords at the same time. I take my hat off to the great rock & roll drunkards who were still able to play. Keef, I'm looking at you!

All but forgot about Otis Lee Crenshaw! Watched this 4 or 5 times now.

What Anders said `Bloody Brilliant` ;-]]]]]]]]]]]

The $60,000 question how many pints fueled this preformance?

Wes, Anders & Mr Barada Nikto - Thanks guys I was having a great time, I think you might be able to tell.

A great performance with insanely brilliant, surrealist lyrics  ...... a bit like watching Jack Black doing a cover of Ernie the Fastest Milkman in the West ...... methinks a new CBG legend is born!

Cheers guys, and thanks to Alan for documenting a great night.
The first song, Streatham Odeon, was written by me, Umbilical Ranger was written by Chris Lawson, and Insect Boy was penned by Otis Lee Crenshaw (Rich Hall). I need to play more of my own stuff, as I am a little uncomfortable performing other peoples "comedy" songs.

Hilarious!  As much as I'm a sucker for the sad song, I love humor in music.  Top notch performance - you owned that room.   Are those all originals?  Clever, fun songwriting.
