Hi Donksters,
Yes, i know its been ages since i last posted, i'm sorry!
Guy, our new drummer is coming along fine and is a brilliant addition to the band. He's funny, energetic and fits in perfectly.
He's in Norway for a couple of weeks now so Danny is depping for him until he gets back.
We're at The Monmouth Ash on Friday 15th March, always a great atmosphere at thos venue! Hope to see your faces looking back at us!
February 4th 2024
So, here we are in February! Our next few gigs are as follows: 10th Feb we're at Bluebirds Social Club, Longham, always a good night here! On the 23rd Feb we're at The Amberwood in Walkford and on the 24th we're appearing at The Swans, Verwood, a new venue for us!
2024 is lookig very busy for the band and for that we are forever grateful to the venues that take the chance to let us play. Sadly, there have been a couple of cancellations due to venues changing hands or other oddities, these have all been updated on the gig list to reflect what we still have going on.
Stick with us through the year, it's an exciting time for us.
Remember, Keep Wonking!

The first gig of the year for us is at The Lord Nelson on 20th January, it's Guy's (our new drummer) first outting with us and we can't tell you how much we're looking forward to returning to one of our favourite venues.
We hope you'll all welcome Guy with the same generosity you always show us, it's a very daunting task playing your first gig with a new band!

Sunday 17th September
We've picked up a couple of extra dates for our gigging schedule for 2023, we're ending the year on New Year's Eve at a private party out in Wimborne St Giles for a friend of ours!
2024 is already lining up to be a busy year and we look forward to welcoming on board our new full time drummer Guy in the very near future, he's just putting the finishing touches to learning our sets and should be in situ by the start of the year.
Gigging news!!
Some excellent gigs took place during August and September has been fantastic even though it's early days yet!
We're back at it in rehearsals and we have recruited a new drummer for 2024 as our regular drummer. Kev, is finding our schedule a bit to much, what with him recently changed jobs and having a growing family. Watch this space for further information!

Those of you that are asking where our regular drummer Kev is lately well, he's taking a break for a while as he has an issue with his ears and has been advised to refrain from loud noises. Once he's sorted out he'll be back thumping the tubs again!
