Tonight, at Velodrome 2000 practise, Chris brought along the Overlord Of Fermentation himself: Rik Beckman – inspiration for the song of the same name.

Here is photographic evidence for all you Rik fans.

Also at practise tonight I discovered, due to a new guitar lead that doesn’t respond well to being twisted, that while playing bass I only ever turn in a clockwise direction. So if you come to see us play and notice me spinning anti-clockwise between songs, I’m just untwisting my lead.
