No ,Geoff the other guitarist has played with Tommy Franks, they're mates.The drummer bass player & myself have played together with two sisters in the 80's ,Geoff played with them both before that, when we 1st got together Pete Hibbert was the singer, but as you know Pete's had to pack-up the singing so we've carried on.

Hi everyone, I am now, unfortunately back from sunny Spain and enjoying the beautiful Baxenden weather! Been back for a week and half really, but it's took so long to catch up workwise, I've only just got round to having a look how the locals are doin'.
Trev, I'm gutted. we are doing a private party tomorrow in Blackburn, so I won't be able to get up to the Globe - sick as a parrot. If your gig is as rare as you say, I don't suppose I'll get to see you till next year! You'll have to make a better effort and get another gig in before Christmas. Keep me posted, see you soon. Tony
