Something For The Weekend 47
Dear Dave,
Happy New Year!
How are you mate? Gettin’ a bit chirpy and excitable at the prospect of seein’ me in the pub next Friday and givin’ me that New Year.. um.. ‘handshake’? Yeah, me too. It’s been a funny old start to the year in as much as I seem to be in a fairly good mood most of the time – compared to last January’s bitchin’ and moanin’ – but I guess we’ll see how long that lasts once our company is taken over and we all get thrown into the Don’t-Bother-Writin’-A-CV Death Cage and have to do some ultimate fightin’ to see who gets whatever jobs are left over. I’ve bought a new leotard in preparation. A nice purple one.
Culture-wise, I don’t have much to direct your attention to this weekend as I’m currently embroiled in two projects (three if you count the ice-cream eatin’; actually, four if you count my ongoin’ search for all the ‘g’s I seem to be droppin’) which are takin’ up a lot of my time. I’ll tell you more about one of them if you pass this way again on Monday because I’m going (hey, found ‘em!) to be doing a lot of work on it this weekend. Can’t say too much just now other than it involves a brand new blog (in addition to, not instead of, this one – let’s see how long THAT lasts) as well as multiple opportunities to see me in the absolute minimum of clothing… a bit like that heavenly week we spent in Myrtle Beach… but without all the face-stroking. Please?
The second project is music-related but surprisingly, is nothing to do with The Signals, Falkirk’s greatest ever pub rock ‘n roll band.
[Breaking News… STOP… The Signals to play Behind The Wall, Melville Street, Falkirk… STOP… Friday February 27th… STOP… Don’t miss it… STOP… More details to follow… STOP… OUT]
Before I joined The Signals in *cough* 1983, I was honoured to play a small role in the entourage of excess that was the AHB (Allan Hendry Band). We churned out a dozen or so albums in the heady, decadent 1980s, most of which are currently being digitally ‘re-mastered’, and last weekend we had a small reunion and demo session in preparation for our 2009 comeback crusade. If you’d like to view a short video showing what middle-aged men – armed with only a musical dream and access to a dressing-up box – get up to on a Saturday afternoon, please click on all these nice red words that are underlined and then scroll down a bit. You won’t be disappointed.
So that’s all from me just now Dave. Have a very pleasant weekend and looking forward to catching up with you next week.
Cheers, Edge

Ok Huey...I'm gettin' Fun Lovin' Criminals "Beautiful"....smoooooth
Gordy
PS If you didn't get "that" CD I promised you for Chrimbo, I promise I'll get it in post within the week.
"IF"?!? You mean you don't know because you've outsourced your CD-burning operation to the Far East and can't keep up with the demand?!? I'm at my wits end here... please expediate my order forthwith.
Purple leotard... nicely done
New blog ... excellent, will it be updated anually ?
AHB ... loved the beret, bet Claire Grogan's been looking everywhere
Will try very hard to make the Signals gig but it is the week AFTER half term, consideration ?
xxxx x but you knew it was me anyway
neily, how come none of your posts ever start of with "dear, wendi"?!?!?
