The Bounty Hounds really excelled themselves on Saturday at the Greyhound Pub in Flempton! Not only did we folk rock this friendly local venue off its feet (again), we also achieved record CD sales during the course of the evening. To be honest, it was the first time we’d tried selling CDs and we actually sold a grand total of five - but we make no apologies for these humble beginnings and, at 4 quid for a 5 track disc, we reckon it’s a really good way to get our music out there …

As for the gig itself, it was great to see so many faces packing the bar and the outside area. I was particularly chuffed to see a few regular faces who follow the band (you know who you are) and also people who came along on Saturday because we were playing there & had heard us before…

No photos this time, but if you’d like to see us in action, our next gig is at the Weeping Willow Pub in Barrow, Nr Bury St Edmunds on Saturday 1st November 2008.

Picture the scene - a little private party in a newly landscaped Victorian semi garden in Cherry Hinton, Cambridge. Twinkly candles, raised beds, tree ferns a-plenty, and yummy food to die for … step across the pond on floating stepping stones, past the pergola, cabbages and beans, and … lo and behold!
It’s the Bounty Hounds!
Complete with mixing desk, cushty PA and a bed of wood chips for a stage (sorry Steve!!)

And sorry too that this post’s a bit late in the writing - also lacking in pictures and/or videos - hopefully soon to be redeemed!  (Ted??)

What a lovely evening it was though - grannies, aunties, colleagues, friends and family - finally getting together to celebrate Wendy & Davey’s lovely new(ish) house and fabulous new garden. Loving the bedroom wallpaper btw!

Personally, I had a great time - staying sober due to playing, meeting lots of lovely people old and new, eating a big fat faceful of wonderful food and brokering a deal to get a funky output from my lovely little Roland practice amp so I can get lots of wicked effects to run through our PA …

Smashing little Roland Microcube
- except mine’s in cream, a much better colour obviously!

Anyways, not much more to write, it was a private party after all, except suffice it to say, the Bounty Hounds rocked (but of course!) and the friendly folks all loved it - what more can one ask?

P.S. There is definitely a video coming soon - with evidence of John’s regular broken string during Fast Lane Driver!
