Well, I finally got myself a drum kit (thanks to all those who helped me out with sites to check out etc) and the band is now up and running and ready to 'Rock the World'.  Anyone in the Darlington area on Friday 11th July are more than welcome to check us out at the Brown Trout pub (not quite Newcastle City Hall!!!) where we'll be performing live.   The band is called Shotgun Blues and we have a MySpace site, which I can pm you the url for if you want.   It would be great to see any of my BM mates there, so get yourself along.    Blue                                                                                                                                                                             

Great news, I'm afraid Darlington is a little bit far for me....but I wish you all the best for the gig. And yes please PM me the myspace. x                                                                                                                                                                             

    Blue is it one of those drum kits that has numbers on?      I wish I lived close enough to come along and support the band cos I like Blues music. I went to listen to a band that had 'Blues' in the title and it turned out to be a JAZZ band  lol                                                                                                                                                                             

Wasn't there a song about a little drummer boy?                                                                                                                                                                             

Theres nowt little bout Blueboy XK hope you can make it along.   Sorry you cant come Kwak,but think you may have been a bit dissapointed anyway as despite the name(blame the manager!!)their a rock band,covering the classics with a few of their own mixed in.Getting a good name for themselves locally,where they are known as the gunz.                                                                                                                                                                             

I heard them called something else! Will try to come along....if I've got nothing else better to do
