Great memories, though. This was a great band &amp; I think it ran from 1992-95 ish. Initially, we were known as &#8220;Brian&#8217;s Band&#8221; &amp; eventually became &#8220;The Medicine Shack&#8221;. We used to rehearse upstairs in the Silver Sword on Wednesday nights &amp; did regular gigs there to pay for the use of the room. We had some really good original songs &amp; as it was popular at that time, were sort of acid jazz styled. we did covers as well. We used to play the Golden Cross often, &amp; the Dog &amp; Trumpet even more so. We actually played my 21st birthday at the Dog &amp; Trumpet. Again, we played a run of uni gigs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Line up <\/b>&nbsp;&#8211;<br \/><b>Anthony &#8220;Spring&#8221; Haynes<\/b> &#8211; vocals<br \/><b>Grace Haynes<\/b> &#8211; vocals<br \/><b>Brian Clarke<\/b> &#8211; vocals \/ alto sax<br \/><b>Matt Edwards<\/b> &#8211; bass<br \/><b>Jay Langdell<\/b> &#8211; guitar<br \/><b>Chris Pemberton<\/b> &#8211; keyboards<br \/><b>Karl Stevens<\/b> &#8211; alto sax<br \/><b>Paul &#8220;Scobie&#8221; Jenkins<\/b> &#8211; tenor sax<br \/><b>Leigh Malin<\/b> &#8211; baritone sax<br \/><b>James Connolly<\/b> &#8211; drums<br \/><b>Mark O&#8217;Docherty<\/b>&nbsp;&#8211; trumpet<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: arial\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"clear: both;text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-oJfe6GeZiUk\/YQ0kmCbESbI\/AAAAAAAAJz4\/cYucoOCgk4kb9XgIalc-iO-iSv7gZFY-gCLcBGAsYHQ\/s2048\/Brians%2Bband.jpg\" style=\"margin-left: 1em;margin-right: 1em\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"2048\" data-original-width=\"1426\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-oJfe6GeZiUk\/YQ0kmCbESbI\/AAAAAAAAJz4\/cYucoOCgk4kb9XgIalc-iO-iSv7gZFY-gCLcBGAsYHQ\/w446-h640\/Brians%2Bband.jpg\" width=\"446\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brian&#8217;s Band \/ Medicine Shack BACK TO THE BAND INDEX Leigh Malin writes &#8211; &#8220;Regrettably, I don&#8217;t have any photos of my time in this band but I&#8217;m sure I have a stack of flyers &amp; stuff.
