'Having some extended shore leave tour' - 2011/12

It's been a while since the last update folks! However, at last, I have now managed to find 30 seconds to update you all on the gig scenario and news.

As mentioned in the last update Max was all OK and the opp was put off. Alas this has now changed and the plucky crooner is now set to go for the nip n' tuck in the next few weeks so.... the Watering Trough gig in September looks likely to be the last from No Spring Chicken for this year folks. Would be good to see you if you can make it to help give us a rip rouring send of for 2011.

The band

Who are and what is "No Spring Chicken"! Well, to cut a long story short were a bunch of mates who used to work together and one summers day decided to start a cover band. No Spring Chicken summarizes us up as were a bunch of old dudes plaing old rock - simples!

Max Bywater - Guitars and vocals

Teaching assistant when not with the Chickens and very handy with a camera - or so he tells us! Also the owner and wearer of some very pointy shoes so girls watch your eyes! Max uses Fender Guitars and H&H Amps.

Ken Slater - Bass Guitars and foul language

Teacher and now highly regarded website tester - indeed, Ken can always be found in front of a PC downloading something or other! Ken changes his gear as often as his pants but currently can be found strumming Fender guitars through Ashdown amps.

Russ Ellis - Guitars and vocals

Teacher and member of the mafia - well, he hasn't told us this but goes to Italy at least once a year and refuses to go anywhere else, this has raised more than one eyebrow! Russ uses an assortment of guitars and amps but can always be seen wearing Topman shirts.

Warwick Fletcher - Drums and piss take

Firefighter and the youngest member of the team. Website builder and creator of the Chickens website so he's the one to blame should it all go to shit! Warwick Uses Tama Drums and smashes Zildjian Cymbals.

Media

Back by popular demand - well, not really but we needed to pad the website with some content. The soundcheck game is possibly the easiest game on the face of the planet but does let you waste some serously boring time at work (Bob).
