Hope you'll play Dig Them Mushrooms and of course The Stoat & Bottle Mr. Baker!

Didn't Max Bacon (ex-GTR) go on New Faces in the 80's? A good job Haze didn't go on Britain's Got Talent, as you'd have seen more of Amanda Holden and the other two judging muppets than them!

Paul Please Sir can I have some more it's a very short track and well, I really dig them mushrooms! I'm listening with a nice cold beer in hand, wondering whether all the dandelions I thought I had got rid of are going to magically come back again like they did the week before.

MORE, MORE!!!! (Puts on best Mr Bumble voice.. fails miserably!) Maybe... when I get back off my hols! It is a very long inteview... (ohh err missus!).. Paul BRILLIANT INTERVIEW PROGPAUL! Interesting candid stuff about their history and their future. Frustrating that when they were gigging in the 80s I hadn't heard of them; if only we'd had the Internet and radio shows like ARfm Radio then. In fact the first record I heard them on was that Kinesis album they mentioned. They played for the CRS a few times as a duo. They actually played with bands such as Dagaband (an ELP inspired trio) who were poised for great things at the time but mysteriously vanished probably for the same reasons that Haze decided to have a break from it! Haze played a handful of gigs at The Dove & Rainbow (who do real ale) in Sheffield and the strangest place we saw them was at a place called Club Erotica in Chesterfield! They encored with a Floyd number and we had to leave because the Landlord got a little over enthusiastic and turned the volume up to 11 blasting us out the venue ! We can take a hint! Treebeard we saw at Darley Dale and we witnessed the acoustic version of Ace of Spades they mentioned!
