We played our Christmas gig last Saturday night with Frank’s other (and loud) band the Electric Cucumbers.

We had a lot of fun, but not a lot of luck recording or videoing it. Last time we played at the Sebright we were able to grab some pretty good video and sound – but not this time. We had fewer cameras, and the battery ran out straight away on one. the sound of the desk did not work as well as last time – although it was fine in the room.

So while we will put up some recordings, they will be filed under our dodgy live recording strand. A bit better than someone’s mobile, but not much.

Here’s Night Boat to Cairo shot from the single camera still working, and with most of the band invisible!
