Today while reading the Watering Hole I noticed that Ghetto Cowgirl were (now off the bill) playing Last Exit soon. It's always shocking to see a Ghetto show scheduled. I also saw that The Persuaders were playing - boooring.

Well, until Katie phoned me 5 minutes later in excitement - as The Persuaders is the Thomas Laufenburg, Scott Andrews, Lawrence Zubia and Phil Rhodes project, that we never thought was going to happen. It's funny actually to think it was nearly a year ago (around October '06) we were first talking about this, and their debut gig is August 10, 2007.

Rock 'n roll! [smile] Such an explosive and destructive mix. The burner question is while the band last longer than Disasteroid, who was an equally dangerous combination concoction. It might only last 2 gigs, but however long it does last, I'm certain it's going to be pure rock 'n roll - the way rock n' roll.

It's True!

A cool "It's True!" snippet in today's MX.

Film comedian W.C Fields drank 2.3 litres of martinis a day, even working on the movie set. In his final years. he suffered from cirrhosis and kidney trouble, and had to wear heavy make-up in his last filns to conceal swollen veins and gin blossoms on his face and nose.
Although I did read through the MX on the train tonight, I missed that. Trust Katie to spot it though!
