If she'd held the camera, then she wouldn't be in the way and you'd be free to enjoy the music Nah I didn't really think that idea would work Sounds awesome. Wickedly fat sounding for what looks like two strings from his picking (though Diddley Bow usually 1? hard to tell). Plus co-ordinating feet for drums + singing... damn! "The night kicked off with Ben Prestage, a one man band who played some blinding guitar. Ben also played a two necked Diddley Bo. One neck had 1 Bass "String" the other neck had 3 guitar "strings". Two pick ups were connected seperately to a bass amp and guitar amp. That man rocked!" Taken from the text of Les and Jack's big adventure. Patent Pending ;D

More video footage from the gig
Ian Siegal just does it for me - that voice and the whole blues attitude
One week today we will be rocking out to Nine Below Zero - very apt - it's bloody freezing here

wicked stuff. Played some other stuff he did solo on youtube, but Ben is filling that out nicely too. Actually getting some fairly good drum beats going, not just boom boom boom in time. both very impressive.
Almost got me hankering to do this kinda thing heh.

That's a scary realistic Howlin Wolf impersonation!! I think he's a big fan. He references him in songs he writes too.
