LoL! I've just realised you're only about 150 Km from my Brother in Aukland. Do you ever gig up there? If so, I'll let him know.

Wow, look at you all. I knew there are lots of UK members but I don't think I've seen all of you in one place. Cool.

Good to meet you, Malcolm. You know if you don't post pictures some of the more unruly of us (Paul TBO) will be banging beer bottles on table tops.

Speaking of unruly, Hey George, are you there? Come over and say hello.

Malcolm:

Welcome to the club. So with all those wonderful Alembics to choose from, how come you're playing a Fender in the pics on your website?

Bill, the guitar one

Graeme,

I haven't played in Auckland lately- only once ever in fact. If I get up that way anytime soon to play, I'll let you know.

Hi Malcolm again. Great to get so many messages from you all. Yes the picture on the web site shows a Fender because thats the previous bass player. If you go to the blog there is a pic of the Six in action at the Cuckoo Festival. We have not got it together to get some good pics of me yet as I have only been with then a couple of months. I plan to get some pictures together at the Cavern on Friday and post them next week.

Malcolm:

Now that's more like it! Is The Cavern in the same location as when the Fab Four played there? It must be a really cool place to play. Good luck!

Bill, tgo

Its the rebuilt Cavern in Liverpool, next to the one the Beatles made famous, still the most famous club in the world though. The old one is now a parking lot(Big Yellow Taxi.

Malcolm,
Is it a replica of the original? How old is the new one? That's still pretty cool.

It is a replica of the old cavern using reclaimed materials and an additional stage has been added as it is a really popular venue, The vibe is fantastic.
Despite being heavily comercialised to cash in on the Beatles history Liverppol is still a real cool place
