The Idle Hands

While I was making myself a bit sozzled in Bolsover this weekend with my mate Rog, I got to listen to The Idle Hands in the Black Bull. They’re a classic British blues/rock band and they were kicking up a storm in there. Excellent stuff.

I really should listen to more blues.

We had a great time in Bolsover, even managing to fit a kebab and a fight into the proceedings. We weren’t fighting but two rough-looking girls were certainly going hammer-and-tongs at each other in the Swan. There was broken glass and clumps of hair everywhere – scary stuff!
