Forget the last news item. The Greyhound gig in Coventry this Saturday will be postponed until nearer the summer.
The reason - lead singer and melodeon-man Simon was admitted to Warwick Hospital on Monday with abdominal pains. They're still being diagnosed but he's doped up at the moment and is likely to need an operation this week. So he'll be in no fit state to perform this Saturday.
The gig at the Bull Inn, Witherley on Saturday 26th April will go ahead with or without Simon - watch this space for updates on gigs and on Simon's condition.

Two old 'Sods to join beer festival line-up
Two former Oddsods members are to join the line-up on the afternoon of Saturday 19th April for the band's beer festival appearance at The Greyhound Inn, on the canalside at Sutton Stop, Coventry.
Fiddle-player Nigel Ward is to step in for Mick Shaler who won't be available for the gig, while founder Oddsods member Bob Brooker, now playing bouzouki and banjo for popular folk and ceilidh band Dark Island, will be the band's sixth man.
The free admission show begins at 4pm and runs until the early evening. The band will be entertaining connoisseurs of a wide selection of ales and they may even try the odd tipple themselves - just to keep the vocal cords lubricated.
