KATYUSHA - WORLD MUSIC WITH A BITE

Band Photographs

WIG AND PEN 20TH JUNE 2001

"Yeah, well I don't like you either!"

You really don't want to know the details about this relationship!

Chris looking amused at something.

Dave used to be in the original version of Katyusha many years ago when we were a wanna-be Irish band called Gan Ainm. It meant "no name" and we all thought it was a great joke. The joke wore thin when no-one could remember, pronounce or spell our name. A bit like Katyusha really.

Mr Jorge Bontemps (left), one of Canberra's finest Latin American musicians and Celeste (right) catch up and reminisce on old times.

Not only do you turn up to last month's Wig and Pen gig without your rosin, but you're late tonight and then you leave in the middle of the first set to answer a phone call.

"Bloody terrible I tell you! He should be sacked from the band!"

"I agree!"

"Wake me up when it's all over please."

 

Hmm...

 

"That hits the spot."

"We don't like this band!"

"We don't either!"

"I'm undecided on it."

Dave and Graeme

Mick actually bought the wrong Bodrahn to the gig and also forgot his Tipper. He had to borrow a saw from the bar staff which he then used to cut a drumstick in half as a makeshift Tipper.

Nigel's actually woken up now.

Graeme (shown wearing the traditional Bayles family forehead plectrum) relaxes into The American Set.

Smooch.

A hyperactive Mick gets really excited and begins playing all his instruments at once.
