Let's get it right. - Read TDL's page - Lots of support and lots of abuse.You love 'em or you hate 'em
Quote's cuts direct from the page.: They are a bunch of nutters alright -woodsie
Sue (who does have problems with syncopation)- guest
Sue's timing and pitch are entirely random. – mr grumpy
Now with Ref to: The Great OFC Incident
On the night in question, in jovial manner, the band asked everyone to join in except TDL - and Sue walked out.Just upped and left on this one remark. Trevor was outside having a fag and I guess she felt alone.She did not return. The resulting mail from her on here was the one quoted above by Richard Bridge. She referred to 'no Prima Donnas at Essex' by reference it could be assumed that she felt there were Prima Donnas at OFC.
The remark from the band could have been made in jest but the Troysoldier post (again above) vocalises the thought of many people who's remarks I have trawled through before writing this. He/she says - No problem with TDL - enjoy every performance - but you have to learn to keep quiet during other people's acts when you can't sing in tune . Not all remarks made by OFC residents about them are negative. Snipped again
Ted Hanley tells me you went to his session and were very good! That's something coming from him! – woodsie
Sue does need to learn to give and take is all I can say.
...and I think Brian Bruce had gone home by then anyway!
