We're playing at The Rose in Biggleswade this Saturday (7th) at 9pm

Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) + Ultrasonic cleaner + Dirty bass guitar strings = Strings like new + Big cost savings

Guess which bottle of IPA is before and after...

Thought that the thumbnail on our YouTube video for Enjoy The Silence looked familiar...

Perhaps the unplanned adrenaline kick wasn't a bad thing - it was a great gig! Thanks to everyone who came to see us and thanks for all the positive comments.

Currently silent, but at 20:30 all hell will break loose

[Nearly New Romantics @nnr80s]

Well, that wasn't the sort of hell we had a mind! The PA amplifier stopped working after the sound check so that as 20:30 approached it was still all silent. Stephen had to rush home to get the old amp from the garage and then plumb it all in. Sorry for the delay in starting !

Less than 24 hours until we play at The Red Lion, Histon. New songs including a couple of Easter eggs for the keen ear. It's going to be busy, so stake your place early.

[Nearly New Romantics @nnr80s]

Red Lion, Histon. 18th May. 8pm onwards. New songs! Not going to announce what they are, come along and be amazed!

Daughter: You could be in Taylor Swift's backing band
Me: Huh?
Daughter: Yes, they're all really old especially the bass player

Thanks

Nipped out to The Prince of Wales at Stow Maries @RobWalster for a bite to eat and was amazed to be there for a lecture by the legend that is @john_otway
