Der nächste Tag startete recht
früh, da die wir die Band um 9 Uhr zum Flughafen bringen mussten.
Jungs, das war wieder ein
tolles Erlebnis! Jerry und ich bedanken uns bei Euch für die
unterhaltsame Zeit und hoffen, Euch bald wiederzusehen.
Martin geht..., Tim kommt.
Liebe fans, wie Ihr bereits wisst, hat die Band
einen neuen Bassisten. Viele von Euch waren sehr traurig zu erfahren,
dass Martin sich entschieden hat, die Band zu verlassen, um mehr Zeit
für seine Kinder zu haben. Wir werden ihn schmerzlich vermissen.
Vielleicht können wir ihn bald mit einem seiner neuen Musikprojekte auf
der Bühne wiedersehen. Viel Glück, Martin!
Nun ist Tim in der Band, um das Durchschnittsalter
erheblich zu senken (haha). Herzlich willkommen Tim!
Beide - Martin und Tim - haben für Euch eine kleine
Nachricht geschrieben.
Martins Nachricht:
I was a fan of the bogus brothers
from the early days when they were a blues brothers tribute band. I saw
them many times in york and they made a big impression on me! They were
once described to me as a band with 9 front men and this was a great way
to put it as everyone played their part in the show.
I worked at the same company with Pat for a while and we had a band
together so when he was asked to join bogus I was both pleased for him
and jealous too ;) Then when Owen left the band and I was asked to join
it was a dream come true.
Only problem was, I never played bass
before! So i had to learn quickly and my fingers were covered
with blisters... I always wanted to tour in different countries
and of course thats what we did! I made so many good friends all
over europe and loved to play in big festivals in the
netherlands and in the ski resorts in austria, those were my
favourite things about the band as well as the great fun we had
together. The other guys in the band became my close friends and
still are today.
It was hard for me to leave, but my kids are growing up fast and
I want to spend time with them and have fun times with them too.
I will miss the guys and all my friends in europe but who knows?
maybe my new bands, Swingstar and The Secrets will come there
sometime!
So thanks to the bogus boys, Tony, Pat, Nige and Paul for many
fantastic memories and Good luck to their great new bassman Tim,
TIME TO PAAARTY!!
much love,
Slej xx.
Tims Nachricht:
I'm happy to give you some information about myself:
I'm only 21 years old (much younger than the other guys!) and
I've been playing bass for 8 years. I graduated from University
in June, and whilst doing some other music work I heard that a
band were looking for a bass player - the Bogus Brothers of
course! I went for a couple of auditions and the guys seemed to
like me so offered me the job!
I've been with them since November 2009, and I'm enjoying it a
lot.
I'm really looking forward to coming over to Europe for some
gigs
