Pistol Gang Flyer – Dublin Castle / Hope & Anchor
Here’s a lovely flyer done by Sam’s mate Ryan. It’s based on an image from some film Sam likes. I can’t remember which one though. Sam talks too much.

Sergeant Buzfuz live session on BBC Radio 6
Tom Robinson is a very nice man. You should check out his show some time. I must admit I didn’t realise he did that song “2-4-6-8 Motorway”, which I actually know.
We played Here Come The Popes Part 3, Rebellion, and Cab, and Tom even happily accepted a Goodbye Serrgeants cd off me. We’re even getting paid too. Unbelievable.
(Thanks to Joe for mentioning Goodbye Sergeants to Tom in the first place…)
The Splendour at Beachdown Festival, Brighton, 24/8/08
The final date on the tour. What better way to mark such an occasion than looking like a complete arse. My first time on a proper festival stage, my first time wearing a plastic wig and all in one jumpsuit on a stage in general, and my last time seeing the Reckless Sons before they bid their merry way back across the pond. Good times. Or maybe just times.
