Thanks to everyone who came along. we had a lot of fun. but somehow i dont think we were to the liking of the landlord. he does seem to only like frank sinatra and opening confesses to hating rock music though.

Big thanks to the prick who reminded me just how pathetic and low some people can be. performing an un-provocked attack on an unsuspecting person. The aiki work nicely though ;)

Bigger thanks to my band mates for being there to back me up and make sure his friends didn't get involved and also Bryne, Rosie n Crew for holding my stuff.
