Yes it's true! Our number one groupie has proved so valuable to us with his consistent gestures of support, we decided to give him something back. Not only does he never miss a gig regardless of circumstances (he even told his heavily pregnant wife NOT to go into labour on a gig night!) he also spreads the word to all the others ensuring us a good following. Not only does this make our evening more enjoyable as performers, it also puts bums on seats which is exactly what landlords want during this financially difficult time. He has also commited himself to going all out to promote us and will soon be touting for business down Pompey. A goal we have wanted for a long time. This gesture takes the pressure off of us a little bit and we are truly thankful. To this end, we decided to strip him of his cheesy No.1 groupie title, and give him a more credible title as a thanks for his efforts. Wayne will now officially be known as "Velcro", the one thing that keeps a kneeslider in place! Well done fella and cheers!
This step did of course leave us with a vacancy. It was a foregone conclusion that No.2 would jump up and become No.1 by default. We'd like to congratulate Gayvid on his new, much awaited title and must stress that whilst we banter with him about only ever being No.2 while Wayne is around and becoming No.1 by default, he has earned it in his own right. He too has committed a lot of time to coming along and brings a great sense of humour with him which makes it all the more fun!
