Brilliant to see, thanks a bunch!!! The end product must be ace cos I love these deleted scenes so much!! I love how they can't agree to play a song at all despite James' ideas.

I'm sure someone requests Sleepflower, seemed to be someone behind James though.

I'd love to get every scrap of Everything Must Go and play around with it, This is my Truth also.

Either Nick has a horrendous memory btw, or he wrote very few of the basslines.

I think Nick is more of a "learn the notes as required" player than a "know the song" sort. I've met a few like that - guitar and bass. Easy way to tell which they are is to get them to swap onto bass/guitar (whichever they're not playing) and see if they can come up with something.

Thanks Elizabeth that was actually quite funny, I loved all Nicky's wee glances at James too during the song.

Nicky's glances made me laugh. James knows what he's doing, man!

Could be that, I've met a few too, even had one in a band at one point...very very frustrating and limiting people to work with, makes sponteneity almost impossible.

Well he's the only "musician" in the band, he'd sit and play all night, I'm the same.
