Another of those marvellous get togethers that musicians have - locked away and not let out until they have done something creative, and often they can be locked away for months and years at a time and come up with nothing!
Ah, but not our lads (and lassies) here.
They play the old ones, the new ones, the ones they didn't even know before they went in and they're still swapping notes on their way out.
A delight, an absolute delight.
Highly recommended!
