Our former bassist, down and out in southern China

Post by steve takacs »

Our band's former Australian bassist left Beijing a couple of years ago for Shenzhen further south.

I told him he'd miss us and sure enough, I was prescient. Doesn't Iain appear particularly sad in the photo? He is the guy in the front row right. Hope life turns a positive corner for you Iain.

I count 5 women, and only 4 guys. So there is one left over, waiting for them to find a steel player.....
