The REOFFENDERS

Punk Rock: Classic and Modern

The REOFFENDERS are on an indefinite break. Never say never, but we currently have no plans to play. However, we had joy and we had fun... and we blogged about it. Enjoy reading and reliving some good times.

Cornwall Tour: Day 6 - Perranporth

We've had a quiet day today. Paul's ribs have been hurting because the boys couldn't make the balloon burst by body slamming last night so John sat on Paul and bounced up and down until the balloon gave in. Hmmm, that possibly looked abit dodgy!

Tonight it's our alter ego, Calling Orson to play as a Thursday night gig was proving abit ellusive for the REOFFENDERS. The venue is amazing and much bigger than anywhere else we'd visited this week. We all said it would've been perfect for the REOFFENDERS. The pub is actually on the beach so you park up and wait for a truck to collect the equipment and drive across the beach. Awesome.

The audience was cheering wildly from the first song which was great. It's one of the best audiences Calling Orson has ever had, without doubt. The rock songs in particular went down well. The rest of the REOFFENDERS were in the audience and there were many shouts of "Huzzah".

Eric! Star of the Show!It was very very funny when Eric the duck came out for the Scissor Sisters song. Kids flocked to the stage and it looked like John was a kids entertainer. Its a definite alternative career he could consider.

Towards the end of the second set, John asked if anyone in the audience could play guitar. A few hands went up, as well as Paul's. So to narrow it down, John asked "Can anyone play guitar who's ugly and smells". Step up Mr Indesit! Bless!

All in all, a damn good night! We had a brief visit to the Cliff Top Bar when we got back before rain closed it. Paul and Marnie sat up all night yakking whilst everyone else crashed.
