Will you be doing much Gabriel-era stuff?

I prefer that to Phil's tunes, to be honest

Nice website, by the way :)

Yours,

Mark (who plays bass)

Hi Mark (who plays bass) ;-)

Doing songs such as

The Carpet Crawlers
I Know What I Like

and a special one or two that we won't be announcing just yet ;-)

We have a basic set list planned just to get us out for now which we will be adding to as the time progresses. No era will be left out.

Thanks for your good wishes all

Best wishes

John
