The Fat Cyclists Gig - The New Three Mariners Laugharne 21.11.08Last night the good people of Laugharne were `entertained` and relieved of £184 and 50 Krona of their hard earned by 5 musicians some of whom came from Norway (and you could never tell by the knit wear!), a human beat box who wasn't and a fat bloke who came all the way from Cornelly...North Cornelly not South (they're poof's down there).
The coast2coast X factor duo of Andy and Phil churned out the usual stuff for the first couple of hours accompanied on a few choice tunes by Phil's big gay fat uncle Lyndon (only joking Lyndon).
Later the Norweigian's who turned out to be very accomplished joined big fat gay uncle Lyndon and a bloke who turned out to be a human beat box who we all thought was from Norway as well, but when asked in the usual way we all do when speaking to foreigners nice, loud and clearly `WHERE ARE YOU FROM` replied `Laugharne, I live opposite the Mariners`.
This impromtu combo played some great tunes including Very Superstitious by Stevie Wonder
which went down a treat with all. Towards the end of the evening after packing away most of the gear, Lyndon who had impressed all and one very attentive bloke in particular was offered £50 for 10 minutes....After clarifying with the young man what he was expected to do for the £50 / 10 mins, Lyndon treated the crowd to another complete set of great singalongs with more cash being raised for each song over the extra 10 minutes.A great night and I can't wait to be eclipsed again by members of my own family and others playing my kit, perhaps I should become a roadie.......
