Subject: The Omega 3, Guildford 16th Feb 2007
For those who remember Roaring Jelly, I can do no better than quote the words of the organiser of Electric Voices, regarding a forthcoming gig at the Electric Theatre in Guildford, Surrey on Friday, 16th February.

"Back in the '70s and '80s a band called Roaring Jelly
worked their socks off, on the folk scene and beyond,
proving you could make a living specialising in utterly
bizarre songs and a slick stage act (and long sentences).
They have since been described, in The Guinness Who's
Who of Folk Music, as "pioneers of alternative comedy
before the term became fashionable."
Twenty years on - reupholstered, revitalised, fortified
with vitamins and fish oils - songwriters Clive Harvey
and Derek Pearce have teamed up again and, in the
company of new bass player Da'aboth Te'He'Ling, have
relaunched themselves as The Omega 3, a trio boasting
three blokes, ten musical instruments and forty seven
songs (approx.).

Electric Voices is delighted to be one of the first venues
to welcome them back with a new bag of quirky, genre-
busting songs plus some old favourites, in a fresh bid
to seduce the world, once again, with ridiculousness."

DOORS OPEN 7.30PM - CONCERT STARTS 8.00PM

Admission £11.00 (£13.00 on the day)
