Foramen in parietis
Thursday 8th April : Hebden Bridge, Hole in the Wall
This one nearly didn’t happen. Huw, our indestructible man-mountain of a drummer turned out to be a little more destructible than first thought. He came down with evil tonsilitis and a raging fever after Leeds so has retired from the tour. We salute him. So, a last minute call to Sir Samuel Lench from Samson & Delilah secures us a drummer for the night. And he plays a blinder, learning the songs in soundcheck and keeping the whole ship afloat.
Sam learns the drums parts through the medium of words and paper:
“The Hole in the Wall is a beautiful old pub dating from 1899 with stunning tiling and all period features intact” (Last Harbour Estates Inc.):
“They are lights”:
Cool Piano Roll support. Really good – intense, tight and sickeningly young:
Tonight: Lancaster. A Little Red Rabbit showdown with Anna Kashfi and Samson & Delilah. x
