Do it!

And as for Snuggly, if we can see you with robot arms and some really skimpy shorts, we can hear your music.

Dont be ashamed, be proud of Monkey Music

Nowt wrong with simian naming of bands.

Some of the mooks we've played with:

Moorweeja
Pitful of Ugly
Slide
Bear

Dr Monkey is inspired compared to most of the drek that clogs the circuit.

You guys played anywhere?

It wasn't intentional. We came up with it at Glastonbury about 3 years ago. I'm growing a bit weary of that name now anyway - it got a bit more crap and cringy every time you heard it. The friends thing was an accident, although we have seen the episode in question.

Why did you name your band after a lame sketch from Friends? Jennifer Anniston may have very nice hair but its still not very rock 'n' roll.

Still, inclusion of the word monkey can excuse most things I guess...

We did! We put it through my Fostex 380 multitracker and then onto minidisc. We only had one mic for the drums though - the last studio we went into used 24! It came out pretty crappy though. I'll see if any of it is any good and then I'll convert it to mp3 and you can all have a listen to the sounds of Monkey.

If this is to be the final jam, tape it.
You'll kick yourself if you don't.

Even through a crap mic, just get some record of you guys tearing it up.

And don't rehearse at Maypole in Southend, it smells of dead people.

And rabbits
