    It's gas isn't it?...you really know there's a recession happening when you see the likes of George Michael's backing musicians ( bass & drums ) moving to Ireland to get " dep " work with wedding/cover bands.Anybody fallen foul of these boys stealing work out from under their noses?

    In fairness it's a free market. I wouldnt see it as stealing jobs from under other bands noses if a couple decide they want them to play for them instead of a local band.

    Sorry..I didn't mean it that way. I meant musicians in already established bands being let go because the band leader thinks it might get him more work....because they have someone in the band who plays with George Michael.Not very nice.

    Let me get this straight..G Michaels drum n bass player are in Ireland looking for work with wedding bands? Well now, there's a turn of event from Wembley stadium to "Fran & Debbie's" big day in the Old shiling!! And does this mean there's an opening for a drum n bass player with Georgie??
