Last night, we lay down on sunbeds and watched Mrs Moon rise like a tangerine over The Aegean Sea. To capture the beauty of the scene fa...

So there I was standing in the kitchen of our son's terraced house. Something caught my eye outside in his little urban garden. It was a...
I remember when you were here is Butte, Montana in 2012! We all agreed it was the best concert ever.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, I remember that gig Carolyn. The entire audience were wearing cowboy hats.
DeleteOMG man, you have too much time on your hands, but I love it!
ReplyDeleteI admit that since Flying Debris broke up I have been kicking my heels.
DeleteSo the band was disbanded before debris flew and somebody was injured.
ReplyDeletePlenty of people got injured when Flying Debris broke up Red - mentally and emotionally.
DeleteSome things about the Ludwigsburg gig in the Palace Grounds are best left unmentioned. I am glad nobody has picked up on that, but I suspect there are still some Youtube videos around of that particular night.
ReplyDeleteShhh! Please don't mention that gig. You will only stir up a hornets' nest of controversy. Where did you go with Ralf Hütter?
DeleteI am "Librarian With Secrets" for a reason, you know.
DeleteYes I do know! Chortle! Chortle!
DeleteYou didn't quite fill the MCG but everyone who was there thought Flying Debris was terrific. It was a memorable performance for me and one of the performers was quite hot, but I can't remember which one now.
ReplyDeleteThat would be me Andrew. I was once described an "Rolling Stone" as "hotter than a hot dog".
DeleteI think I fell out with the group because of the digital representation forced on us by our lead singer at our latest concert. Growing old gracefully is not a sin ;)
ReplyDeleteI am sorry that it had to end that way Thelma. No more "Sha-na-nas", no more "Doo-wop-ah-doo-doos".
DeleteAh the Good Old Days. No wonder I went deaf.
ReplyDeleteWe told you to wear the earplugs but of course "JayCee Knows Best" was your motto.
DeleteI guess news of Flying Debris never made it to Australia....
ReplyDeleteWe only played Melbourne and Sydney. The promoter said that Adelaide was stuck in the 1950s.
DeleteI always refer to Wikipedia for my up to date information. Do you remember Deborah and Tracey? The groupies we took on the tour bus with us to Rhyl or was it Scunthorpe?
ReplyDeleteHow dare you Dave? I refused to perform in Rhyl! It was Llandudno. Tracey said she loved you in a Middlesbrough accent. She smoked like a chimney.
DeleteCan't read text in graphics.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand what you mean Tasker. Do you mean on the drumkit?
DeleteThe spoof wiki article is a picture. Text-to-speech can't read it, and that is the only way I can read at more that about 5 words per minute. I can write OK but can no longer read very well because I can fee only half a word at a time.
DeleteHahaha! Neil, I promise you wouldn't want me to sing (even just backup) and no one else would, either. :)
ReplyDeleteSome backing singers are like window dressing Jennifer. No one cares much how they sing. As I recall, you were usually miming but you looked a million dollars. Meike and Thelma did the heavy lifting.
DeleteNow you've come clean about the break-up YP, I'll confess - I was rubbish playing keyboard, but the volume the rest of you made covered the fact that I'm tone deaf and haven't got a musical note in my body!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh!
You may not have been a great keyboard player but you looked so cool Carol!
DeleteFlying Debris was never popular here in hurricane season. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteNo. I guess you prefer The Swaying Palms and Sweaty T Shirts.
DeleteSadly, I must have missed their rise and fall!
ReplyDeleteToo focused on Justin Bieber Bob!
Delete🤮🤮🤮
DeleteThe AI bots are adding these facts their endless database of music history.
ReplyDeleteI will be glad when the royalties start rolling in.
DeleteAnd we knew you when!
ReplyDeleteBefore we were famous.
DeleteYou can tell you are retired with time on your hands, Neil. It's kinda creepy how people can use the computer to make fake "news" and AI makes it look so real.
ReplyDeleteGuilty Your Honour. I hope you didn't find my Wikipedia page too creepy Ellen!
DeleteWhat a shame to have missed them!
ReplyDeleteMy biggest thrill since standing next to Bobby Vee at the urinals. And no, I didn't look.
