By the way, we forgot to actually tell you about our World Tour Of A Village Near Salisbury.
The village in question was Stapleford, north of Salisbury. The venue, a small village hall, compact but perfectly
formed.
Three sets of three songs a piece were played between Will Blake and Greg Stacey, Holy George, Megan Hickin (of BBC Radio Leicester breakfast show fame and accompanied for one song by Janet Hickin), Fay Brotherhood and Kim
Sewell, each interspersed by cups of tea, fags, biscuits, discussions of world politics and Big Bruva.
Holy George rehearsed for about four weeks and presented Take It Or Leave It, Horror of Life, Man As Man, Song 3, Dressed In Grey, Walk With Me, Ratified and That's Not Me.
To everyone's dismay, we were unfortunately unable to play the timeless classics, Go And Tell Aunt Nancy nor the Crystal Chandelier.
It must be said that, as suggested, Simon is "proud" of his "intense shredding" ... although he needs to try harder with the feedback tho !!
Steve is particularly proud of his Cardinal Lobelia, although admittedly they are not a patch on what they were last year.
Edit: Sorry, I didn't realise I was meant to say what I saw proud of musically. Hang on... SB
Steve is particularly proud of the fact he kept his bum notes to about 3 instances. If anyone counted more than that, then they just don't understand the HG musical concept, man... :-)

For the many 1000s of you who are feverishly clamouring for a news update, HG Central can report that creativity at Robbi Studios is somewhat lacking at the moment due to the fact that Holy George are deeply ensconced in the hi-fidelity comfort suite of Robbi Studios amidst a heavy rehearsal schedule for their up-coming World Tour of A Village Near Salisbury, England.
Such is their dedication that they have spurned all bacon sandwiches for the time being. Furthermore, they have only been to the sweet shop once in the past three weeks !!

... no-one reads this you know ... only Steve and Simon ... we could write anything ... but we don't care ... still, keeps a web-server company in business ... hooray for HG and their philanthropic web-server company patronage !! It's not like we're doing it for any of our benefit is it !!
Please come and visit our web site :-) Cheese, nice pictures of pantaloons and some quality vibes to boot. Please.
