I was the Bb bass player on Davids first CD of whistling, it seemed to go down very well. I know there have been others since. You can get them from places like Dobcross Bandclub. Simon

The good thing about Leighs arrangement is that it is really close to the original but still manages to involve all sections of the band being highlighted at some point. He has done many great arrangements & compositions, some of you may already have played Erin Shore for example. When i got on...

How about a straight jacket in the bands colours? Just an idea :oP Si

I always thought if someone could get to grips and arrange some of Pink Floyds material it would be good. Anyone fancy a go? Si

Infectious Grooves album. Theyre a funk band made up of Suicidal Tendencies singer & Trujillo, metallica's bass player. Totally different to what you'd expect from them. Si

As everyone has said, he was a gentleman & inspirational to talk to. He came to a couple of our concerts at Regents Hall the night before the Nationals & most recently was at Cambridge when we did the Gala concert for the Masters. He'd always pop around the dressing room & chat with us & say how...

As i recall Leisa, you didnt need to spend much money! lol

Each band got 10 complimentary tickets, which were counted at the registration, probably to make sure they werent used by supporters & friends. Si

I dont know about other bands, but most of our band rarely go in for the results anyway. We just wait for a call or text from in the hall. But im sure more players would have if the England match wasnt on.
