11th October 2011:
It's 10 years ago today that my friend & singing partner Stuart died.
As sad as it is, it's nice to remember all the good times, and there were many.
We did around 1400 gigs together between 1992 & 2001

I'm always looking for new venues, can you help?
We can cover over 1000 songs between us, not all 'A' list songs of course
but it means we could play a weekly venue with a different set for the whole year
if you are a singer and require backing tracks, call me
manchesterbeat lots of interesting stuff here
manchesterbeat my old band Axis
