Four 'Cellists and a Drummer

Ok, I think there's a rule that says you can't be a classically trained 'cellist and a headbanging rocker at the same time.

There has to be.


I think it's because you have to sit down to play. You can't be a proper long-haired headbanger and remain seated. It just looks weird.

If there is such a rule then I've not heard of it.

I am both a classically trained 'cellist and a headbanging rocker - the latter skill not having been exercised for a number of years.

I used to play the bass and my 'cello (though not at the same time) for a band at school called 'Hairy Bob and the Golden Discombobulators'.

Didn't have the long hair though.

now, you know sir, that it is a sin to tell lies.

I'm afraid I am going to require photographic evidence for this absolutely astounding claim.

I knew about the 'cello thing, but, good heavens, you don't expect me to believe the headbanging part do you?

sad to say, Your Eminence, that all this took place in a different, less photographically-aware age, when people out there weren't blogging photos of my every move.
Brief mention of the band here on Hairy Bob's website.

I think that's all I'm prepared to say about these things without my lawyer present...

You do seem unusually popular on the blogs, especially for someone formally pledged to uphold the Christian principle of hiddenness.

Maybe its the hats.
