something better change, peaches, no more heroes

my old band supported the stranglers when they played in milton
keynes. this was just after Hugh left and they were touring to break
in the new singer. The stage was tiny and I didnt have room to set my
amp up so I had to play through JJ's rig! god it sounded awesome!
afterwards, our singers girlfriend told me that my bass was so loud,
it was making her feel sick! had a chat and shared a spliff with JJ
after the gig, which was pretty cool too.=20
