Sad
note, April 2008. We have had to let The Boner
go. For nearly a year, it has lived minus a rear
brake whilst we have toured up and down the country,
letting it's MOT expire. It is sad to watch it do
nothing so we have decided to let someone else enjoy
it. At the time of writing, we are about to stick it
on eBay so, within a couple of weeks, will no longer own
it after nearly 5 years together. RIP beloved Boner!
Update 3rd June - The Boner was sold and has just
left. It's being turned into a Banger Racer so, it's
gonna go out with a bang!

This
is it, the most infamous vehicle in rock - THE BONER!
This is our version of the Batmobile - every rock band
should have one! And this page is dedicated to it. Near the bottom
you can find images from the day we got it (so you can see
how it looked before it entered the SPiT LiKE THiS
UNiVERSE!) and all the rest are how it looks right
now. If you see it about, honk ur horn, yell, shout,
wave - anything just to get urself noticed! And
we'll beep right back. or run you over or something.
And, if you do see it when we're on our travels, drop us a
line! Oh, and to answer
the question we keep being asked - yes, this is our daily
transport!
