Hi guys, Long time no post. I've been lurkin' though, just not signing in as much as I should've! Anyhoo, if you could take a read of this and pass it on I'd be very grateful!
Way back in 2002, Steve and Liam from windings were in a punk band called The Poke. They covered vocals and drums respectively. Also in the band were Con (guitar/vox), Fiona (bass), and Mickey (guitar/vox). The Poke were a great band!
Recently, we were shocked and saddened to to hear that Mickey has got cancer. He's going through treatment at the moment, and is keeping very positive. However, as you can imagine, this is a very challenging and costly time for Mickey, Fiona, and their two little kids Seamus (2) and Aoibhinn (6 months).
A 'demo' was recorded and released by The Poke in a very small quantity in 2002. It was called Eat, F*ck, Die, and it's pretty damn good. It hasn't been available anywhere since then, so we thought it'd be a nice idea to upload it to bandcamp now, so folks can give a few bob and have a listen. All monies received will go straight to Mickey and Fiona's paypal to help out a small bit with their current situation.
Even if this isn't your thing musically, we'd very much appreciate you sharing this post as far and wide as possible, we know that Mickey, Fiona and family will be so appreciative.
Thanks you guys
