P.S - The 'Just Add Quantum' instant band "Worn Out Porno" (Madonna, Benny Love, Marc & Leyne ) showed incredible promise & we hope they will become a permanent QL act. The antics of the mystery drummer .ie smashing over half the drum-kit ala' Keith Moon was total rock n' roll. Thanks again to TRIP for sharing their instruments & stage once again! Great guys!
P.P.S - Great to see Madonna (the REAL one) back on stage!
P.P.P.S - We need Morgan & Dax back too!! Come on guys!!
[Preliminary Draft - by Hal] Tonight was characterised by a very good crowd and a very good time being had by all. Trip provided the spark to get us all rockin' and rollin' the whole night long. The night started off with a typical frenzy and late arrivals by some. Martin organised the foldback and mic stands from upstairs. Dan kept the crowd happy and provided the early evening entertainment during the extended setup time. Then once the mics arrived, Dan performed his set. After Dan, we had Rex, Melonie, and Marnie the marvelous. Then Trip performed their set (Chris on bass, Ben on guitars/lead vocals and Tim on Drums) That got everyone dancing - what more can I say? Then Mischa performed to a rousing reception (after enduring few altercations with the CD player). Flaming Galahs performed 3 songs then called up John Hooper to the stage to join in. Dan also joined in and we then proceeded to the first jam of the evening (Pretty Woman). Then Trip got back on stage and we jammed Perfect Day, Blue Moon. Then Mischa, and Marnie got up and we started jamming some Bowie numbers. Ziggy Stardust, Gene Genie, Then finally we were treated to Ching Chong by John Hooper unplugged. Other notes: Ivan came back to visit us after being missing for a while.
