I know you didn't ask me but "Eleven Modern Antiquities" a stunning disc. It gets regular playtime with me.
Oh yeah, welcome Thomas.
Cheers Todd!

Thanks for the very kind welcomes guys!! Yes that's Neil Hannon popping his head in and out of shot in the 'At The Sea' video. Well spotted, though we have had quite nice success with our cricket-pop shennanigans recently (The Duckworth Lewis Method) so we've been moonlighting on each others projects!! Neil plays and sings quite beautifully all over "Eleven Modern Antiquities" which, by the way, APE are re-issuing as new early 2010, with new artwork too!!
Here's me Ric again.....(I just love showing it off!!)
Great stuff! Goes to show you well-written songs, melody and harmony never goes out of style! I am really enjoying that one!

For those of you are are enjoying the Pugwash, don't skip over the above mentioned side project The Duckworth Lewis Method. An entire disc written about a sport incomprehensible US sports fans but excellent never the less. Test Match Special and The Age of Revolution are particularly awesome.
Welcome!!! I too, would like to know if you'll make it to Cleveland, Ohio, one of these days?

Wow, I can't believe I started this thread and THOMAS WALSH got wind of it and joined the forum! Welcome indeed, Thomas. I received Giddy last week and am enjoying it daily. Can't wait to get my hands on 11 Modern Antiquities. How 'bout some tabs 'n such? I've got most of "nice to be nice" down but I'd really like to figure out Anyone who Asks.

Hi Dan!! Thanks for buying the music and thanks for starting my very own thread here.....I'm so honoured!!
But.....please, please don't ask for tabs as I'm what's known in the music game as..an idiot!!
I write the songs, I write the words translates as I make up me own chord styles and I write mad but true life stories!! All very silly but I love what I do, just wish I was more of a 'technical' geezer. Do you want to know what gear I have? My 1967 Ric, a VOX AC30 and an original Novatron!! Minimal I know but I only go for the cool stuff
My beloved Novatron
It's not mine but a close friends!!

Novatron? I know the Mellotron; is this a variation of it?

A Novotron is a Mellotron M400 re-labeled as they went through business issues (money and trademarks).
