Speaking of shining public moments -- or moments, anyway -- the little
"group of guys from my office" (named, for obscure and not very clever
reasons, "The Hibachi Dealers") is playing its first gig to feature
predominantly original material at The Man on the Moon pub, Norfolk St.,
Cambridge, UK on Wednesday, 23 February.  I realize no one could
actually make it to such a gig, even if some kind of temporary insanity
made them want to, but hey :)

As Jon Jarrett can attest (having been at a previous gig where the set
was mostly covers), we aren't very good -- but we are pretty loud :)
We're ye olde vox/gtr/bass/drums line-up (I'm playing bass here: 1970s
Rick 4001, natch! :) and I guess the originals fall into that sort of
"weird heavy rock" category.  We do have one massive rip-off space-rock
piece (complete with swooshy noises formed by twiddling the dials on an
analogue delay pedal :)  Actually, there's audio and (partial) video of
us playing that one linked from:

More gigs in Cambridge, UK (and, possibly, environs) are percolating
around for the coming months -- assuming we survive next week's show ;)

Cheers,
Carl

ps - man, how uncool is that, to play with guys from yer office?!  Ah
well, screw it: making loud noises is fun ... :)
