health and safety night
Axes, saws, Psycho style kitchen knives, and no proper block for keeping any of them in.
ALthough at least no-one was senseless enough to run around with any scissors.
The guitar Orchestra led the way with Dereks mighty chopper. . . . fnar
Headliners Bela Emerson, Geoff Leigh and Richard Miles actually came tooled up with nothing more dangerous than ferocious improvising skills.
Henry Collins , presumably as Slashs Wormhole although we never discussed it, disembowelled some unfortunate piece of wood.
And Noteherder & McCloud had unsuitable loose clothing for lathe work. Good thing there were no lathes in the shop.

I have missed some acts cos the video I got was just too, too poor.
October proper – all darkness and wind.
It was a Dark and Stormy night, but we were very happy in the Komedia with a top bill.
kicking off things we had Romanoids tribute to Solar Records. Though to be fair I think its only me that sees the disco connection.
Then Tom Mudd gave us some Joypad joyful noise.
Twocsinak was just pointing out the words from this list, rather than reading them.
Although he did have a stand with them on. This song? Poem? was called “Zen and the art of “something which went on for a long time and Joe got bored even before we did.
And finally John Wall worked with Vache to provide a digital soundtrack to an 8bit display (have a look at the video below, too)
Also lots more videos on our myspace page. click on the video button, there is yards of the stuff.

No footage of the SoG Q4, though. And no mp3’s.

Apparently Eric, who was playing at The Albert, asked his crowd why on earth they weren’t at ours to see Eugene Chadbourne.
And quite right too.
I thought we’d start with a picture of SoG regular Simon hacking his teddybear at the elektrocreche.
Set up next to the elektrocreche was Vache who was handspooling VHS for the visuals.
It was a tough show to schedule but someone had to go first, Henry grasped the nettle and took the opportunity to play a full length Slashs Wormhole set in three parts. pt I featured a tennis racquet and ping pong ball and harp chair, followed by a duet for exercise bike/bass hurdy gurdy and fuzz guitar and rounded off with a duet for toolbox and vuvuzela.
Sandwiched in the middle were Gus Garside, Annie Kerr and Monty Oxymoron, who I’m trying to convince call themselves HaHaHa. This a bit from near the end where Monty was whacking a brass dog he had stashed under the birdcage.
And the main event was Eugene Chadbourne, starting on banjo and finishing on electric guitar (including a rousing version of “City of Corruption”). This is the first song, possibly called the old piano.
