Hi !
I'm waiting for my speedwayshop brown beach reedition !!!!! I'm a bit impatient… Did you order one ?

I'm sure it will be very nice! I'm hoping to find an original over here some day. They do turn up here in Michigan sometimes. We have very cold winters here.

I hope too.
The model I ordered is the suit collar jacket. Begining century look… I 've never seen this design before… I'm a bit impatient… For information is it you who manufactured and dealt "Geronimo" clothing few years ago ?
Best regards
VJ

Nope, Geronimo was made in the U.K. by Dave and Jane. Nice couple! They are still in business but mostly make t-shirts these days. I did have a few pieces of their gabardine (jackets, shirts) that I sold off on eBay a while back though.

oh yes… sorry for the mistake, that's why I asked you first i you knew my rockabilly band "jack face and the volcanoes". We use to play in UK and plaid in vegas 3 years ago… first french band I think…It was a strange feeling… the double bass that staff gave me for the show was really bad treated by the bands before us and its bridge jumped during the first song of our set … I plaid maracas (yes I did), to finish the song. Jerry Chatabox should go back to play his records. A second bass arrived and looked very frail… I plaid on it and peg brocken the body of the instrument… We stopped the show after 3 songs… People came to see us from states and europe and we were very sorry… I use to play jazz and I play very sweetly… It was a very unlucky day for us… I don't think, american musicians will lend me instruments right now…hahaha !

you were there ? I will propose to tom a new gig…Hope he would be interested…Vegas the return…! maybe more than 3 songs…

Matt Strickland said...

Yup, I saw the whole thing! Was terrible to only get to hear 3 songs. I'll cross my fingers for another gig at VLV! Do you have any new Jack Face recordings?

French cancan said...

The band was stopped during one year and we will play for new gigs… We plaid in spain few months ago and I will trye to organise new tour soon.
When the band brocken we were recording a new album… really roots and authentic with the Jack face atmosphere. We will maybe continue it…don't know , after the tour I 'd like to organise, maybe … europe, states or japan…I really want…
