    Just noticed here’s Jonny are hanging up the guitars end of the year. Obviously w club band scene isn’t what it used to be (does anyone actually go out for the turn anymore?)

    these guys are/were one of the best of the past 20 years

    Basically, Gaz their excellent drummer, has said he is calling it a day at New Year. I can only assume Jonny is struggling to find a good enough replacement and decided to call it a day. They haven’t quite been the same since they lost Nick, on bass, Jonny’s brother in law and best friend (suicide, sadly, and a truly decent bloke) and the line up’s changed often since.
    This has come as sad news as they were one of the few remaining bands that could still fill a clubs concert room and make it feel like the. 90s again.
    But I shall aim to find out his remaining few gigs, locally, and will post on here so we can give the lads a proper send off for anyone interested.

    Top band. I managed to talk em into doing Hoyland reds presentation do one yr. Kids. Adults and us oldies loved em. I've wondered if Donny singer Yungblud took a leaf out of Johnny's book with his antics.
    Mental lol.
