Kent Parker and his Dogs Bollix.

From a concerned correspondent:


Nos, I was imagining how excited you were getting preparing to go to the
Dogs Bollix tonight to hear Kent howling. Sadly, I just went into the
passing phase website and it seems to not be showing that gig now. Not
sure if it is still on or not, perhaps you would like to check it out?
Best you wear overalls, a check shirt and straw hat. Blacken a couple of
your front teeth too, don't want you standing out in the crowd by looking
normal. ;)


I'm so disappointed. I've been standing outside all night in the fog with
my ticket, which got all wet and limp as though it was thinking of  sweet
Melanie so I swapped it for a dog biscuit I found in an old drunk's pocket
who was snoring in the doorway. At one stage I thought I heard Kenty
warming up, but alas it was The Devonport 'Fairy's' fog horn lamenting
soulfully through the white haze which seemed very appropriate to my sense
of longing.

Yet I may still go if I can get the old broomstick working.

  1. Idiot man. He can't even be original about that - there's a band in the US called passing phase who can actually play and sing.

    Perhaps there is a lesson for Kent in the lyrics of...yes..."passing phase" by destiny's end:

    We can't explain nor understand
    We invent the grandest schemes
    It doesn't judge, does not punish
    We can't accept that it just is

    Time for Kent to accept that it just is and abandon the grand(iose) schemes?

  2. Sadly, Kent has had to postpone having been unable to produce any documentation to prove he was of a fit and proper person of 'sound' mind - let alone even paying the booking fee. He was also chased out of the back alley by local cats, Buster McCoy, and his mate Tom Hatfield, they couldn't put up with his howling and whimpering. Bloody tom cats these days are so inconsiderate.
