The Owls are seeking Owlets...

Just one of my semi-regular calls to arms. Now that we're once again a fully-functional live band I'm back on the lookout for musicians to join our little collective.

If you're an Essex-based musician and able to commit to rehearsing once a week in Leigh-on-sea, and playing a couple of dozen shows a year (mostly in the South, occasionally beyond) then feel free to get in touch.

Right now we'd like to hear from you if you play bass, drums, strings, woodwind or guitar.

It's nice to see some enthusiasm still   out there  for
RSD and the format itself.
I'm already wondering what next year will bring.

Mott the Hoople  :   Live  - 30th Anniversary Edition  (Columbia 2CD,  2004).

Not sure  why, but I left this  sealed for a long time,  having bought it on release.  The album was due at least one more anniversary when I opened it  .

It's  certainly no disappointment.   Post Dudes but still includes some  older songs, and all of the groups lurching madness in concert.

They've got so many of them now. I hope the quality stays decent.

I thought they were brilliant too, but my absolute favourites were Juniper who were awesome. I think you were working when they were on
