Welcome
Ben
Not quite the X factor auditions
…..or sat in front of Sir Malcolm (your fired) Clark. But following the
departure of Ian from the band we welcome Ben to the Antarctic Monkeys.
Since joining us Ben has put in a
tremendous amount of hard work and effort to learn all of the existing songs
with the added work load of learning the new album since it’s release in
May.
This boy has got the memory of an
elephant… looks of a Chippendale… guitar fingers as good as they come………. and
hair by …… well lets not go there !!!
Seriously Ben has got bags of
enthusiasm a tremendous attitude and has slipped into the band as if he has
been there for years. He has nailed every tune that has been thrown at him.
Eat, sleeps and dreams of monkeys songs and he has had them rammed down his
throat for the last month or so.
All his hard work is now coming good
as we move toward a busy period in the monkeys calendar.
On behalf of all of thebBoys …..well
done and welcome aboard !!
