It only takes one gardener, to plant a 1000 bulbs

Today I have been to Harrogate to see Four Day Hombre, a band who have oft been mentioned in these pages before. The train over was more than usually busy. In fact it was packed full, mainly of raw 16 year old army recruits, fresh out of school and full of naivete. They all seemed to think their new life would be lots of fun and that killing people was entertaining. I, however, have seen Full Metal Jacket and know the truth.

Not sure why they were all going to Harrogate though.

FDH were playing in the teeny-tiny Blues Bar again. It's just below Betty's Tea-Shop and it's quite entertaining to see old ladies walk past the window looking slightly bemused at the loud music being sprayed out onto the daytime Harrogate streets.

FDH Fibbs 070905

Anyway, a quick plug: Come along to Leeds City Varieties on the 22nd September for the official launch night of the single 1000 Bulbs. It'll be a great night.

(nb, photo shown does not depict Blues Bar. It's Fibbers from Wednesday. Same band though)

There is an army base on the outskirts of Harrogate. I lived there when I was younger and my Dad posted to the smaller RAF base.

Ah, that would seem to explain their presence then.
