Frank Rabbit and the Bobtails
Talentless buck toothed, lettuce munching, riff pilfering, hell for leather, Lethbridge-obsessed no-hopers locked away in their damp underground multi-track recording hutch, obsessively chopping up Frank Fish & the Fins/Nige & Trev recordings until the baby donkeys come home.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Born on the dark side of the Cutteslowe Wall
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Never played live. No special moments in our lives whatso-flippin-ever...no, tell a lie - it was pretty damn special when we dredged up that medal from the drain, oh yes it was to be sure, to be sure.
