Jack FaulknerYou never know, there just might be coal under Hackney wick. But then the local council would put a stop to it (eenvoiwenmental issues) plus where would you get people willing to gan down a pit these days. OOh moi trainers would get rooined, and you arent allowed to use a moboil, and the coal dast would ROOIN my nails
(ps I have played drums in a Durham brass band....was asked to leave the rehearsel room when I played a James Brown backbeat on a military march LOL)
Having said all that, this is a cracking version, sort of a tightened loose tubes feel. Very nicely done!

Stratford Marshes hold no coal, just some knackered cars. I think lots of Hackney Wick types would go down a pit for some locally produced charcuterie. I live in Hackney Wick.

I don't mind the version though, might try to see them once.

Aaron Szura Where as thats a mildly funny thing to say and you might be from tyneside or south shields or some godforsaken part of there abouts I couldn't give a shit if Durham was the capital of homosexuality. Thanks though.

Never had a pit? Dalston was a complete pit in the late 90's, mate.

I want this version played at my funeral. Followed by 'Fire' by Crazy World of Arthur Brown as they send me off to be cremated, obviously.
