| Print 3 flyers per A4 page, with marked cutting guides. Hint: setting your start date to the first of a month, and your end date to the last day of a month, gives a neat heading on your flyer, e.g. setting 1 May 2008 and 31 Aug 2008 as the start and end dates will produce the heading: 'MAY - AUGUST 08'. Try it! You can also set the font size to a decimal value (e.g. 9.3) to make the gigs fit exactly onto the page. | |

[Wed 7th May 08] Scaramoose Adventures - March Tour 2008 Day1 - Swanage
With the van fully loaded Scaramoose headed out along the south coast, away from Devon and through the rolling hills of Dorset. Deemed by many a Devonian to be a treacherous journey with a risk of falling from worlds edge east of Honiton, the van struggled at times and was often led astray by distant satellites and the threat of tanks!
Luckily they made it, arriving just in time for dinner. Three sizeable meals gratis of the management welcomed the boys to what was set to be a great evening. Stomachs were full and spirits were raised as Scaramoose took to the evenings entertainment. The audience were a mixed bunch of listeners, dancers, talkers and shouters, but overall the sound was well received and many a flyer and E.P disappeared throughout the evening.
Day 2 - Portsmouth
After taking solace for the night in some cheap and cheerful accommodation somewhere near Southampton, the boys headed down to Portsmouth to play at The Drift Bar. With a few hours to kill before the gig Scaramoose spent their time constructively, not writing songs and practising, but making use of condemned fairground ground rides and attempting to hit France (and each other) with stones. Clive also did some good impressions of heavy artillery!
Off to The Drift bar where Scaramoose would feature as part an evening showcasing some of Southampton's finest. The packed venue warmed to the band from the first song and a good time was had by all. Even the two locals who earlier that evening were bouncing each others heads off curbs in the high street seemed to be happy enough. Before leaving John negotiated his way out of a parking ticket and the boys were soon off and onto Brighton for the third leg of the tour.
Day 3 - Brighton
Scaramoose awoke to a snowy day in London by the sea and they were keen to explore what the town had to offer. The obligatory stop at the guitar shop left Clive hungry to splash out on a new bass, but they didn't have his favourite colour so it was time to leave. On for some late breakfast and an all you can eat buffet was spotted. The decision was made before words could be spoken and the boys were soon tucking in under the watchful eye of the waitress, who made it her mission in life to suss out who might be trying to con the system by ordering one buffet and sharing amongst friends. Her suspecting glare scanned the restaurant every so often just to ensure that the rules were being adhered to. Unfortunately on this occasion we didn't get to see the result of what might occur if someone attempted to rebel. Rest assured it would have involved some form of physical violence from the lady in question. Making it out full to the brim and more importantly without any bruises, Scaramoose set off down to the seafront to see how the pier sized up with Devon's finest (they sure know how have a good time).
Onto the evening show and the band was greeted with a small but welcoming crowd of family, friends and one Olympic coach. Yes that's right, Chris pictured here is responsible for coaching the British Olympic trampoline team. Reckon we're on for gold in 2012? Mmmm.
Still.... thoroughly nice bloke and best of all he insisted on keeping the band well lubricated.
Day 4 / 5 - London
Off to the big smoke and the chance to perform alongside some of the capitals offerings. First up, the Good Ship in Kilburn and an opportunity to return to the stage that Scaramoose visited back in December. This time the band were headlining alongside three indie / rock bands. The energy level was turned up through the evening as the roster of groups gave it their all to the London crowd. Scaramoose stepped on last to deliver a fine performance, thoroughly enjoying every bit.
Onto day five and Scaramoose headed to the heart of the capital to play at the Soho Revue bar. With John E back on the guitar the lads opened the evening in what was set be an excellent programme of unsigned artists, handpicked by Sam at the Seb Collective. A darkened room with cool lighting set the mood for all and Scaramoose performed a variety of acoustic numbers from their repertoire. With their set out of the way the lads had the chance to catch up with old friends and enjoy the great acts that followed. Midnight came and Scaramoose were back off in the van to Northamptonshire, home pastures for John and Clive.
Day 6 - Banbury
This morning, unlike any so far greeted the band with a cooked breakfast courteous of mother, a treat more than welcome after eating cereal from plastic bowls for five days. Matched with a good walk in the fresh country air Scaramoose were ready to return to a tour favourite, The Flowing Well in Banbury. Friends, old and new gathered to support the band and a great night was had by all.
Day 7 - Bath
Into the final leg of the tour Scaramoose said their goodbyes to family and friends and set off to Bath for their debut at The Porter Cellar Bar. The venue provided the perfect stage for the trio to host their final set and the audience welcomed their sound with hands a clappin' and feet a tappin'. | [Tue 29th Apr 08] New Image Gallery Hi All
