We certainly played Queen Margaret's, so maybe you did do a gig. I'm delighted that you would put The Catburgers on the extensive list of bands you've been in! Was your drumming that bad? It was definitely an improvement over Andy, the Socialist worker pavement artist. He had loads of enthusiasm but we all had to pause when he went for a drum break and start again when he began the next bar after an indeterminate amount of time had passed. Wonder where he is now. You out there Andy? I haven't seen The Thanes since Mal emigrated to Spain. Are you still gigging in Edinburgh? Hi Angus. We certainly played Queen Margaret’s, so maybe you did do a gig.

Recently bought a drum kit in fact so, if that US reunion tour (or should it be re-onion tour) ever comes off, and nobody else wants to play feel free to get in touch. In case you (or anybody else) is at all interested I'm currently still playing with the Thanes and true to form I'm in several other bands too. Nice to see Ross's pictures from the onion cellar - perhaps he could post the Desperados/Fizzbombs ones on flikr sometime too.

I spoke to Jeff the drummer yesterday, and he has one of the original tape copies made at the studio. He's going to send it to me so I can digitise it. I do have it Richard.
