On Stage

Happy Dave - Bangin’

Jez - Twangin’

Big George - Sangin’

The British Music Industry are immensely proud and delighted to announce the long awaited, and desperately needed, arrival of the saviours of the whole wide world of entertainment: BiG GEORGE & THE G SPOT

Destined to be bigger than the Beatles

( FACT : the heaviest any of them Fab 4’s ever weighed in at was twelve stone, eight & three quarter lbs, whereas... Big George is over 17 Stone already and committed to a dozen doughnuts a day diet)

Playing all their own amazing original hits, as well as gifting the world a few decent versions of other lesser bands songs too. They will make you happier than a chocolate elephant filled with cash, turning up on your doorstep

Fronted by the good looking, funny and extremely clever Big George, whose glittering talent will make both drummer boy Happy Dave and guitarist Jez, multi millionaires. They are the best musicians on the planet today, and tomorrow

Their album is currently being recorded in LA by top session players and singers

The reality of being managed by a London Club owner in the late seventies was unpaid gigs at a moments notice (one time in Brixton Prison), after hours unpaid bar work for gangsters and their minders (including Lenny McLean) and no chance of getting anywhere in the record indie

Back in 1977, whilst Saturday Night Fever ruled mass popular culture and Punk Rock reflected the misery of a nation, the edgiest club on the planet was The Roxy in Covent Garden. One band played there more often than any other. They were the only band to be managed by the club. And they were the last band to grace the stage, before literally taking pick axes and smashing the building apart

The Blitz: Ruth vocals, Ed drums, Jez guitar and

George bass/ keyboards. Average age 19

Born in a Greenford flat, shaped in various London Squats, demoralised on the bosses sofa and cold but safe in the back of their transit van

Life was... interesting?

It got so bad that one (late) morning the band convened in a phone box and decided to split. Do a runner. Get the hell out of there! Which they did. Never to see each other again. Well almost... 30 years later, when interest in the band reared its ugly head, and the “nowhere to hide” internet came into play, Big George was contacted to contribute to a book about the , which he did. Next, Dizzy from Detour Records called to say he was releasing the bands 1977 studio recordings , which he did. Coming soon: Blitz Live at the Roxy!

The whole experience was wild. An aspect of Big George’s history that he’d confined to the dark forgotten recesses of his brain. Only to be slapped in the face by “fans” sending photos, set lists and posters to sign. Freaky! But not as freaky as getting a call from guitarist Jez (after over 30 years). They met (in a boozer) and it was as if they’d never parted. Next they jammed and the rest as they aren’t saying yet, but they will be, is history

But to date, no word from Ruth Carr from Mansfield or Edward Butler from Hull
