MELOVEGG ALL DAYER @ t.j.s - worcester
we make a lot of mess and make a lot of noise. even the idea of a review is quite silly, let alone actually writing one. anyway. ben put on a punk all dayer and it was ace and there were lots of good bands, then we ruined it for him. john-joe fell asleep for a couple of hours behind a sofa and then we were ready to play. clit cut up his fingers on his bass and trippy discovered just why celery never was the ideal choice of drumstick. today was a three loaf day. we had a lovely couple of guest musicians, nazi cunt, the innapropriate poet/drummer, and lord fear, the legendary philosipher and throatalist from evesham. yippeeeeee

We opened this night of music with a breadless set, consisting of 200 tea bags, a couple of leek and some badly coordinated sillyness. Many thanks to pete for getting us the gig and to all the other bands for making it such an ace night. Teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeea

NIGHT OF EXTREMETIES @ the imperial - hereford
Jezworth the 1st opened the night with his usual blend of stand up laughter and acousticisms, to be followed by an incredibly silly pijin set. Unaware to John-Joe, Clit and Trippy had planned a new song called butter, which involved Clit rubbing butter into his knees and rolling around on the floor. The set was also memorable because the landlord who doesn't like swearing didn't appreciate DIE YOU PIGFUCKING ABOMINATION. Altogether a night of fun. Rotting Tramp were well on form, as were drink with the dead.

PINK MARSHMELLOW PARTY - heav'n and hell - liverpool
A multiple celebration of birthdays - the pijin opened with a bread fest of quite silly proportions, and treated the people of liverpool to possibly our best set ever. the flaming apes head were up next - always worth the 2 1/2 hour trip up the motorway, and then rotting tramp, minus bass guitar played a storming set. the evening was then nicely finished off by perfect virus...many thanks to everyone...a night to remember (?)

EXTREME FRIDAY @ the paul pry - worcester
The end of the toxic rotting pijin tramp tour saw us playing to a packed paul pry on the night of clits birthday. The effects of the previous nights was starting to take its toll, however a fun night of noise was had by all. clit managed to get wasted without being arrested and john-joe managed to avoid bursting the blisters sustained from the previous two gigs.

PHILIP NEWTH @ the arts workshop - worcester
An exhausted, infectious pijin rolled out of bed on saturday evening and reluctantly started preparations for the gig. we collected the equipment from the paul pry only for the car to run out of petrol 10 metres down the road. we had since run out of money, so the three of us pushed the car up the street, past a police car, over some traffic lights, and into the car park of the arts workshop. we played last, had one loaf of bread and tried to shake off our lethargic, contagious attitudes with a good dose of sillyness. a much enjoyed, diverse evening of creativity. thank you!!
