Unplugged and unembarrassed

Filed Under : Music , Review

We surprised ourselves.


Played the Unplugged and acoustic gig at Bootleggers yesterday as per previous blog.
Have to admit we were all a bit nervous about it as we were out of our comfort zone, and hadn`t rehearsed anything.
....It was f***in great.
Everything was stripped down to skin and bone , which if anything , showed more what the band are capable of.
Also, don`t they say that a true test of a song is how good it sounds just with a voice and an acoustic guitar ?

Thanks to fellow NWB guys for your song suggestions. They worked great.
Also ,thanks to Bootleggers for coming up with the idea of the unplugged Catdog, and the crowd who were with us all the way. It had a wonderful relaxed feel to the day.

Back to rockin on all cylinders tonight at The Longlands.

See you there.
