Impromptu gig-ly goodness

Ants and I went to check out a band at the new(ish) local, the New Inn, tonight. Hullabaloo play loads of Irish favourites, definitely one of the best bands the landlord has put on since we've been there.

Evening wasn't without its laughs though: Ants and I were nattering out the back when Martin (the landlord) popped his head out... "Georg, d'you know the words to 'Fairytale of New York?"

"Um. Yeah. Why"

"Good. Hey fellas, gotcha one!"

Apparently, someone had put in a request, which the band said they couldn't play cos they had no female vocalist. I can't say I did it proud, but for something completely unrehearsed, it was alright. The punters seemed to like it too: check out this review!
