Something Fishy At Bar Wotever!

Some of the Pinkies went down to Bar Wotever in Kings X last night to catch Something Fishy perform. The venue itself is quite small, but it was packed to the rafters. They had a warm-up act, quite unintentionally no doubt, of a tall guy in glasses dressed in pumps, a black devore dress and pearls.

Then Eliza (Tanya), Lara (Gill), Vinny (Carol) and 'Funky' Fingers (Johnathon) came on. They stole the show with a mix of funny, new and gloriously cunningly (mis)appropriated songs. And there was the curious incident with the guitar in the night, and Fingers' synthesizer which seemed to have a mind of it's own sometimes! All great fun.

Ir was also really wonderful to see old members like Line and Iain there, as well as members who have just joined this season, like Maia and Andrew (on his mobile as usual). Something old, and something new. Nothing like the Pinkie family getting behind you!

Here's the video I took of the evening. YouTube only allows me to upload a particular size, so I have had to split it into five bits. If you want the whole video (in a higher resolution too!), then you can grab it, and several photos off my pink bits.
