    well hubby and i went to a gig this evening it was the primary five jim mcculloch and bmx bandits ...wishaw had a free gig with over 50 bands playing but ours cost us £13 each ...worth every penny twice over but i think most people went to the free gig lucky if there was 120 at ours...i havent seen the bandits for years they are soooo good for the soul they really are ...also caught up with a guy i used to be friends with years ago ...it was like a family reunion ...the bandits are the band that most bands in this area at some time had someone playing in ...hubby and i used to watch them oh 20 odd years ago there would be a few bands on a night and it basically was the same people just swapping instruments etc ...as i knew some of them i used to go watch them practise ...tonight i was chatting to some of the peeps and we were commenting on how there were so many kids at the gig how it was bizzare yet fantastic at the same time ...trully soul replenishing evening ...and the music was great too
