FOG play at "Fladbury's got Talent" on February 11th 2012
Well someone had to set the benchmark when the words "Got Talent" is used. FOG were delighted to be asked there to set the benchmark for the evening, by which everyone else was to be judged.
As the curtains opened after the interval, Ken rocked into Black Magic Woman, while Peter and Malc were still trying to work out which was was forward facing. Chris, oblivious as ever banged on, then started to play the drums too. Peter then made the more sensitive members of the audience nauseous by doing a dedication speech inspired by the Oscars, and dedicating "Wonderful Tonight" to all the women in the audience - who were decidedly peeved at having such an unharmonious drone dedicated to them. Fortunately "Paint it Black" at full volume covered the sound of the outcry.
At the end of evening it appeared to be decided that all the other acts were superior to the FOG benchmark as they all got certificates, and FOG only got two for the four of us - we still argue which two let us down.
As the evening raised over £900 towards toilets for the Church in Fladbury (a subject dear to our bladdery challenged hearts) we were only too pleased to be invited.
