| Well done lads for cancelling your gig a couple of hours before you were due to go on at Estentepe Hotel and leaving the owners in the lurch.... Apparently you have "split up" - perhaps you could have at least honoured your comitments.... With reliability like this, you should go into constrution over here, you'd do a bomb... A non too chuffed Neg Nick,,,, |

| DD - a few hours before the gig was due to start, they E MAILED to say they had split up and weren't doing the gig... if that's a "perfectly good and honourable explanation", then i'm a jam doughnut (with cream on the top...) A still disgruntled Nick |

| Hi, I have had an email from Gibson335 about the gig, so I will just quote him. "The Band has split up as a result of last Saturday I was even going to try and do tonight and Sunday by myself but I had an accident yesterday and have broken a knuckle on my left hand which means I cant even play guitar and would have had to let the other guys do the gigs anyway. I tried to get them fulfilled by someone else but couldn't. I do hate to let people down." Hope this clears things a little. Vicki |

| Paul, I think I have enough on my hands at the moment don't you? Hey at least one of the band members has tried to explain, I knew there would be a valid reason. Vicki |

| mess 4 - why didn't they ring the Hotel ?? - an e mail a few hours before makes the whole thing stink... To cap it all we had to have an evening round the Monger's, so a double whammy for me..... |

| N.N. before you go off on one at Olivers army, Keefe the main man is a first rate guy, he would not call it off without good cause, unforunatley there are a lot of jealous small minded people here, you know the sort, phone calls to the authorities etc, etc. This is what I hear on the grape vine, Real shame for Sue and Glen at Esentepe Villa, I know what excellent hosts they are, and also what a beautiful place They run , superb food and stunning views, But hopfully the band will be back, |

| mess 25 - i was at Esentepe Hotel yesterday having lunch at about 2pm - Sue was in a panic because she had just received an e mail from "oliver's Army", stating that the gig was off because they had split up.... In my book that's apauling.... They hadn't even got the decency to phone..... With dozens of people coming, loads of food already prepared and no entertainment, what were they meant to do ? Anyway, i have not changed my opinion of "Oliver's Army"........ Any if they do get back together, i for one won't be watching them.... |

| I heard that there where a lot of plain clothed officers at Olivers last gig,so the audience spent most of the night watching the detectives, Paul. |

| Nick....... message 1>Well done lads for cancelling your gig a couple of hours before you were due to go on at Estentepe Hotel and leaving the owners in the lurch.... Nick .......message 28....mess 25 - i was at Esentepe Hotel yesterday having lunch at about 2pm - Sue was in a panic because she had just received an e mail from "oliver's Army", stating that the gig was off because they had split up.... So Nick , were they due to perform at 4 o'clock ? I don't know , but i would imagine it was 8 o'clock . There is a big difference between letting someone know two hours before the gig or six hours before. You are right there is no excuse for not phoning, my guess is that they were embarrassed !Having said that , why exaggerate the story ? Was it 2 o'clock or not ? What are you gaining by rubbing someones nose in it ? Are the Mongers wearing a bit thin now so you are turning into a drama Queen ? |

| Arry - imaging it was your Hotel and you'd got 60 odd people coming and the food all prepared - cancelling by e mail a few hours before ain't cricket in my book... Doesn't really matter if it was 2 hours or 6 hours, it's the principle...... |
