Hey all.....I've got a show on the 30th of July, but the george we had booked backed out of the show and left us to get a new george for that date. The Show is a promo gig (paying though) to get some stuff for our website. The Group is called britishmania and any george in the new jersey/new york/deleware/philly/how ever far you wanna travel area. Pay is 350$ plus dinner and expenses for 3 sets. Must have proper gear and knowledge of 62-66 beatles set list (I will send you the set list) Strong backup and lead vocals are a must. Please email me at [email protected] Show is in the Riverton country club, south jersey.

That's pretty good money Alex. That's more than as lot of bands get for the whole band. Did George play bass now, I forgot.

Alex... I'd volunteer but I'm far way, almost as old as the real George, cant play the George leads very well and am ****** at lead vocals. Aside from that, I'm perfect.

Have you found anyone yet?

I like you style too Kent, haha! Hey we can try right? I don't think we're going to pull anything over young Alex here though.

yup, you got that right. I was trying to post a pix of Alex Smith's Roadrunners band who definitely look like they have their sh*t together but the link

www.roadrunnersband.tk

doesn't seem to work for me. Hey Alex, whats up?

Speaking of The Roadrunners, there was an old Cavern group by the same name.....

"The Stones are good - nearly as good as the Roadrunners"
- George Harrison -

Hell.... its was a good band name back in the early 60's and its a good band name in the 00's.

.... and aint that a great pix??? really shows how cramped the band was in the Cavern.

I wonder if there's a way to find some music from those Roadrunners, if old George said they were better then the Stones then they must be good!

Hmm that link ( www.roadrunnersband.tk) should work. The Roadrunners in liverpool of the 60's were usually known just as "The Roadrunners" but there full official name is The Liverpool Road runners. Now Im definetly the youngest in this new group im in "Britishmania" site will be up soon.

For some reason, the link:

www.roadrunnersband.tk

doesn't work for me. I get the standard "The page cannot be displayed" screen. Am I the only one who cant access Alex's site?
