| Message | Sampede would like to wholeheartedly apologise to the crowd who came to see us recently at croft club. The night was a shambles and has put a dent in our otherwise good reputation. We were battling all night with our sound due to some new digital equipment we were struggling to get to grips with.
We tried numerous thing to get the sound right and did not prevail. We are all incredibly passionate about our sound and it was getting us so annoyed that we kind of gave up and got drunk. - THIS WAS NOT A GOOD IDEA - NOR IS IT NORMAL BEHAVIOUR FOR STAMPEDE!
We don't like to drink during our shows, we think it is unprofessional and spoils the show, we regret it deeply and assure everyone it will not happen again.
We would like to thank everyone who stayed for the show and although we doubt we will ever be invited back we would like to offer a free show to croft club if they would like to see us do a show of our normal high quality.
Best wishes: John, Middi, Simon, Colin and Kelly.
