Unfortunately Robert Gordon died a couple of years ago. If anyone here is a fan of rockabilly /physchobilly/punky fusion, Hillbilly Moon Explosion are playing at The Hare and Hounds, Kings Heath, Birmingham, England, on Saturday 8th March. Great band who I’ve seen a couple of times before. I shall be there with all the other ageing Teds, Rockers, Physchobillys and Punks having a great night. I would post some vids but still can’t work out how to do it !

The way I go about it ( Windows 10 ) , after a period of trial and lots of error , is .............
Click on share under the vid on YouTube ............ click on copy , and a message should flash up on the left of your screen which says copied to clipboard ............. go into settings / system on the Windows menu , select system , and scroll down to clipboard ........... click onto clipboard , press the Windows key and the V key together on the keyboard , and a box should pop up with the latest vid reference you have selected at the top ..........
Come into the Lav forum , click to enter where you want to post the video ......... press the Windows and V key together again , and that clipboard box should reappear ........... click onto the vid reference inside that box , and that vid reference should now appear on the forum screen ........
When you click post reply , that reference should now display as the video you want to post .............
When you go to click on share at the start , it`s probably best to make sure the video is at the start of it`s play , rather than half way through ...........
Took me a while to figure it out ........... the Windows plus V key together seems to be the magic ingredient that took me a while to discover .........
There may be easier ways , but that`s the way I do it ............ Once you`re used to it , you do it without thinking ...... that is , until you find yourself having to explain it ........
...............( ....and make sure you select the correct video reference ........... I`ve lost count of the number of times I`ve almost posted Japanese Schoolgirls Pillow Fighting into a discussion about triple valve clearances ...........
......... ) .............

Blimey, that seems very complicated. Is all that really necessary?
All I do is copy the web address of the video (https:// ... whatever ... ) and paste it here as text.
The magical elves that run the forum work out what I'm trying to do and show it as a video. That's exactly what I did below.

Yes to all the above, about sums up my existence, mores the pity am here and not in the UK. HME well known on the sound system here, obvious reasons. Of the days gone, Ronnie Dawson ( Lisa Pankratz drummer top notch ) , Johnny Powers, Eddie Bond and the Stompers, Charlie Feathers et al.
More of the modern Rhythm Shakers!!! Hi Jivers, JD Wilks and his bands. Gals on upright slap bass Psychobilly... the look the sound, fabulous. Relax Trio a special mention, the gal on bass/main vocals... naturally gifted and more. j

Here you go, Jon.
The gal on the upright is a good friend Lyn. Her husband Boz, of Polecats fame, is on guitar. Known them both for more than thirty years

Have you seen The Honkabillies ? Try “Wild Cat” on YouTube outside at The Hot Rod Hayride. Nice girl drummer. And to all you non believers, yes, there are a lot of ‘Billy’ derived bands as well as ‘Cats’ !
I remember at the TT in 1981 both The Polecats and Matchbox playing different nights at The Palace Lido. There were still plenty of original rockers about then and also a local gang of young Teddy Boys I hung out with. Great days.

Sock, Boz Boorer was playing lead guitar for The Polecats. They were all very young, like myself !
Well done Sock, seen the first clip, 100% classic bass lines from Lyn, holds it all together while the guitarists become lost... same studio with Sonny also more akin to guitar looking for the bass to bring them home.....grin. j
Ok will do Steve, also Jane Rose on her day is notable. Am restoring an old crank down campervan to head north in the winter to QLD for gigs and festivals Car and Rock et al. Blown my right knee to bits at the last festival, dancing with wild women will do that....
couple of notables, yes i do look like that when a gal drops her skirt on the dance floor mid song and gives to to another gal to wear, cannot make these things up....j

Musing about guitarist friends, I woke up this morning thinking about this guy, a pal of many years, who sadly left us a couple of years ago.
