I've really no idea what ever happened to The Blow Minnows. The idea probably never progressed any further than him thinking up the funny name...
Ladies and Gentlemen, will you please say hello to the BLOW MINNOWS, the latest collaborative spoken words 'n' music project brought to you by the Artist Formerly Known As RABBIT SHOW REJECT.
Today also sees the launch of the official JOHNSON'S GRIDLING BAND tribute MySpace page, celebrating well over 38 years of Ninniness in southern Hampshire. Ooooh boy! is THERE a story to tell... and so we shall! www.myspace.com/johnsonsgridlingband
On the subject of the JOHNSON'S GRIDLING BAND page; If any JGB alumni have any pictures they'd like to share, get in touch with Shelfy through the usual channels.
