Picture this: Just before turning 40, a chance meeting at the Heritage Centre in Crewe led me to an unexpected musical adventure with two fantastic bands. Join me as I share the exhilarating and sometimes nerve-wracking journey with 'Dad's' Band and 'Lasers 2 Stun'. From alternating guitar and singing duties with Steve, to navigating the complexities and joys of working with talented musicians like Rhys, Tom, and Adrian, this is a story of passion and camaraderie. Together, we discovered the magic of spontaneous jam sessions and the thrill of preparing for our first gig, balancing rock covers with our original creations.

As we hone our setlist and anticipate stepping into the spotlight, the compelling challenge of tackling songs like "Purple Rain" and "War Pigs" is only rivaled by the excitement of planning gigs. Listen in as we explore the creative process of designing our band logo and integrate our energetic new drummer, George. We’re on a mission to share our sound with live audiences before the year's end, driven by the dedication and sheer joy of making music together. Through all the rehearsals, setlist planning, and logo designing, this episode captures the essence of band life, complete with all its ups, downs, and unforgettable moments.
