Orchestra Rehearsals - On Hiatus til Mon 5th September '16!

"I spoke with Jesse on Saturday, and we agreed that with the lack of gigs and low numbers, we should take a break now, and start again to prepare for Priston." The next Orchestra rehearsal will be booked for Monday 6th September @ Desperate ...

Re: Big Love Festival 30 april/ 1st may
Afraid I'm definitely not going to make either set for this weekend - won't be able to make it on-site from Central London by 12pm on the Sunday.
Boooo! Was looking forward to it.
Hope it goes well!

Re: Bowie Gig #2 - Trinity - 05/12/15 - Lead/Understudy Vox
Not to worry!
Steve informed me last night that our support band will be performing "Bowie-oke" for audience members to flex their Zowie vocal stylings - I'll have a crack at that instead!
Cheers, Ole!

Bowie Gig #2 - Trinity - 05/12/15 - Lead/Understudy Vox
Here's Jesse's latest email round regarding the lead/understudy/harmony vocal parts. I thought this might be a good forum(!) for figuring out the rote: "Here's a list of potential tunes including ones we've already found singers for. Let me know if you fancy doing a tune (or being an understudy for ...

Re: COLOMBIAN CHARITY FUNDRAISER GIG
Hi Tim,
Sounds like a great gig and a very good cause - top lineup too. Unfortunately it's a same day as a friend's wedding in Brighton, so I won't be able to join you.
Hope you have a great night! Ole - bass

Re: Concerts 2015
Hi Jesse, hope you're well!
Are there any more details about the Easter gig on Sun 5th April?
I might be heading up to Cumbria with friends on the Thurs - just checking what time I'll need to be back by!
See you soon, Ole!

Re: Christmas Party - 18th december - kuumba centre
I'm happy to help with the set-up/pack-down.
Will have to get my thinking cap on regarding a red dish of food - most of my honed recipes come in shades of beige!
Looking forward to it - Ole

Pill Music Festival - drivers departing Saturday afternoon
Hi everyone! Sorry to be cheeky - would anyone driving to Pill on Saturday have space in their car for a double-bass (and possibly, but not necessarily, me as well!) ? I'll be happy to pay all fuel/travel sweet expenses for the privilege! Let me know what time you're leaving and from where and I'll ...

Hi all, Ole Rudd here - I joined you for the first time last week with my double-bass. Just a note to apologise - I thought that I'd be able to join you for the rehearsal tomorrow night and both of the recording sessions, but since I've now got to leave for the Boomtown festival on Wednesday 6th, an...
