036R Enya Remastered.

Enya has always been a popular subject for cavern regulars, and in its earlier form produced a large audience, larger than any we’d ever seen before.  Not quite that good this time, but still a good number, and we were very happy to see you all.

163 Renaissance

An enthusiastic audience joined us for the preshow, as recommended, and listened to The Yardbirds, followed by an excellent show covering Renaissance, in all their forms.  I for one could listen to Annie Haslam singing the telephone directory, all night.

031R KISS Remastered

An enthusiastic audience in the cavern danced along to our remastered history of KISS, one of Malaclypse’s series of histories.  The original script was quite heavily fiddled with, not least because we now had to cope with four voices, three of whom were unfamiliar with the material.  Before we used to make it all up as we went along – nowadays less so, but it’s still not all scripted.
