Portasound

It was a sunny July 21st and brothers - James and Michael - were walking through Beaulah Cresent on their way to meet Luke and some other mates in a rusty crust shack.
They wandered into the same charity shop they often do on this most boring of walks to the station- just to see if the old confused owner had updated her box of dead peoples eyewear.
She hadn't.
However there glimmering in the dusty corner of the room, partly obscured by a tangled web of coat hangers was a Yamaha Portasound- Unboxed, not new, missing an F:Sharp and with no instructions or batteries.

The Dirty Delinquents

The Dirty Delinquents were created at the start of 2010, when Meg was bored of the same old sounding bands in the local area, so wanted to get a group of like minded musicians to make something special.
Meg managed to find two musicians Switch and Tom S, whom like her had a mutual love of Soft Toy Emergency, so decided to get cracking on making some tunes. Meg then introduced Paul to the band so they could get cracking on playing some gigs.
