Subject: John Otway & Attila the S
This was in another post, and we Otways have to stick together... who else will have us? So to give it its proper do. first the quote

Chris Amos FYI John Otway plays the Schooner, Southwick, Sussex with Attila the Stockbroker on February 27th £5 (Tel 01273 592252)

I was telling John, via email, that my bandmates and I were driving back to New York City from a gig in North Carolina, after 16 hours on the road, the smell of Elizabeth New Jersey (rotten eggs and vomit from the oil refineries) in our nostrils, it was time, Leah, our guitarest, like the Captain from Das Boot says, " Larry, put it on, you know the one..." And we drifted through the night 4AM, with Chyril playing on the CD player... Apropriate, after a disagreement with the promoter of the concert, where Leah says over her shoulder, "Why don't you drop something heavy on my head, to ease this pain in my heart..." Pure magic.
Lorcan Otway, of the band Sorcha Dorcha...
