Mick and Louise Nadin started hanging out in The PBGB Shed around April 2015. We knew them beforehand.........part of the gang hanging out at The Cheeky Mango and so on, friends of friends etc
Louise came equipped with an acoustic guitar. Mick toted a box of harps and a voice.
It soon became very apparent that Mick is a HUGE fan of the reggae mon.
In fact, Mick’s alter ego is General Mikey, presenter of Sapphire FM’S 2 hour ‘General Mikey’s Reggae Show’, broadcast 8pm Thursdays and repeated at 4 pm Fridays. Tune in rasta freaks............The Gen hangs out some serious grooves !!
No surprise then......Mick soon had us sharpening up our reggae skills.
Mick had written some lyrics. He had a bee in his bonnet about government ‘procedures’.
He also had a groove in mind, and we started kicking it all about.

We had a great time putting it together. You did good Mick !
Hope ya’ll like it.
Mick Nadin wrote the lyrics, knew what groove he wanted, sang and played harp. Go General Mikey !!
Steve Faggoter played the lead guitar.
Louise did the percussion stuff.
Neil played bass. He also did all the recording and production. Nice work Neil !
Pete played the drums
