Crediton is only a stones throw from The Village, so why has it taken us four years to get there? We don't know either, but Saturday night was so great we're kicking ourselves for not recruiting here for the Tone Army sooner.
Our excitement mounted as we assembled our now formidable mountain of gear, steaming and creaking into completeness for the first time since before Christmas. Everything was back from the menders - the AC30, the Speakers, even Bunting's low frequency-proofed Surgical Truss.
Once we ground into action, the band performed like a well greased traction engine - maybe it was because we were on new turf, possibly it was the tightness of the aforementioned medical support strap, most likely we because we like to show off a bit and were loving the excitable and frankly very attractive audience like the randy troubadours we are.
It matters not - a good time was had by all, and we'll be back!
Welcome to the Tone Army Crediton - we officially love you!
See you up the Bowling Green!
Byeeeee!

Some of you may have felt a tremor this evening. If you were early to bed, maybe a strange banging overcame you. If you live far from The Village, perhaps a slight tremble in your trousers.
Don't panic. If your seismograph went wild, blame us. The AC30 is finally back from the menders, and she's brought a bastard love child with her, a Leviathan no less. And we gave them both a right good go up the Skittle Alley.
Now, to sleep, perchance to dream...

This post is looooong overdue - we played at the Black Horse what seems like forever ago. Recollections are hazy. Tess was definitely there. The landlord definitely practiced his best Anglo Saxon on us. The post rugby crowd definitely made it into double figures at various points.
But most importantly for you, loyal Tone Army follower, is that we definitely played what felt like a blinder and were unbowed by playing to such an intimate, select, crowd.
New songs are bedding in nicely, and since we played, all sorts of marvellous bookings are coming our way. 2012 is looking like the best yet...
Join the Tone Army. Next recruiting at Potters in Crediton!
Love you byeeeee! X
