BoBs perform
at a Jam night
in

first place they’d played
and kicked into one of their songs called “I n my Head, it was Ska…
I liked it; they did one more “Never comin back, this was ska but
more Rock n Roll. They then got off to let the next act on. I met
the band after and asked, how long have you been together? Not long

interjected, ’about five months. Where else have you played? I
asked? Nowhere yet, said Billy, but we’re looking. Now we’ve

I
saw the
BoBs live
at some place called the Northwood they had some kid on guitar, yeah
he was good mind, and the rest weren’t
bad either. Played like Ska and Roll, damn good fun I must
say. Goes down well with a glass of stout and a packet of pork
scratchings.
