On This Day 16th May 2004.

Paul "Righini" Wilson, guitarist with Manchester's very own Sandbox, taking a break from playing guitar to play keyboards at a free gig at The Beehive, Manchester, 16th May 2004.
Okay, not so much a free gig as a very public rehearsal, with a chosen group of fans, friends, and hangers-on (and me!) who were tasked with picking a set-list for the next big gig.

Lennie Butler, singer and guitarist with Manchester-based Indie band Sandbox, performing on stage at ZanziBar, Liverpool, 29th June 2005.
This is the night that I use to wind my wife up, just casually mentioning that I had a drink and a long chat with one of her teenage idols, who was managing one of the other bands on the bill!
