| Welcome Jed. |
|
Jed has agreed to become our new permanent bass
player, and he is a great rock bass player.
Basically he kicks ass and I'm very excited about
progressing within the band with him. He's been
playing a lot of Rush and even plays the pedals.
I reckon he is definately going to bring a lot to
the party and am truly looking forward to working
with him and (of course), Luke and Jon in the
future.
We're already talking about writing our own
material, and it will definately have the full
on "escher power" that we bring to all our songs.
Looks like we might well be playing at next
years' Glastonbugdet festival, and the organisers
are looking to promote a third stage at the event
as well. Bring it on.
Mine and the other Escher lads' thanks go to Dave
Foley who has stepped up to the mark and played
the bass for us over the last umpteen months.
Without him we would have been snookered. We've
all loved having his company on stage, and I'd be
more than happy to share a stage with him
anytime.... Thanks Dave.
We play what looks like it might well be our last
gig with him tomorrow. 13th Oct, at the Looking
Glass in Leicester. Quite wierd but the last time
we played there was our last gig with Malc our
previous long time and original bass player.
Hopefully not an omen for when we hit that stage
with Jed.
Later Dudes.

| Been a while. |
|
I lost my password so havn't updated anything for
a long time. Well a lot has happened with Escher
Rocks. Malc, our bass player called time out to
spend more time with his familly so we've had a
friend pl;aying with us, Mr dave (Axel) Foley.
We've been very busy busy on the gig front and in
the last couple of weeks we opened the Rotary
club festival in Market Harborough in conjunction
with Harborough FM to a pretty sizeable audience.
We got a good response and thoroughly enjoyed
ourselves. Last night we played at the Rutland
Chapter HOG rally in support of the Almaboobies.
A great night, we were made to feel very welcome
and we all left on a high. Hopefully we'll get to
entertain the lads and lasses again soon. Thanks
to Almaboobies for giving us use of both their PA
and sound man. I thought their sets were great,
and hope to work with them again sometime.
The kit has changed about 7 times since I last
posted any photos, but I'll try and get some
together.
Cheers,
Stef.

great gig last Friday with the new songs and the
new sets, and we are all right up for it this

a good one. Bring it on!!!

Been in London for most of the week so I really
should be practicing instead of sitting by this
computer.

| New songs |
|
Looks like we're going to stick another 5 or 6
new songs in the set for the next gig at the
Looking Glass, Leicester on 6th October. Suppose
I better go and learn them then.
