Rich - Melodeons

The first man to use the melodeon to replace his decaying lungs, he now can't stop playing without losing the ability to speak, or stand up. Battling valiantly through his addiction to prescription footwear, Rich gained his name because of his unique, buttery aroma.

Nige - Bass

As a result of this, He left his former employment as a Dolphin trainer at the Basingstoke Sealife Centre and embarked on His new calling as a Bass Wizard. Winner of Radio Times "Thumb of the Year" award for 1834, 1922, and 1976.

Tom - Drums

Despite having his heart replaced with a 3 stroke petrol engine at an early age, Tom has lead a fairly normal life. Embracing what he calls his "tank", He manages to keep a mostly perfect rhythm. Tom's drumming is not as heavy as it used to be due to having been converted to un-leaded.

Lee.0.D. - Keyboards and Guitars

Since his completion in the late 40s, Lee has gone through several guises with his current owner, Baseball pro Albert Pujols settled on the classic "rock scientist" look.
