Fictitious

Nezzy informs us that "Sludgedyke Silver Band (from ‘up North’) is completely fictitious and all the characters are simply plucked out of thin air... if you believe that then you’ll believe anything.

"The characters have facets of all the bands folk you have ever come across – ranging from the gifted; the not so gifted; the pre-Madonna; the big and pig headed right down to the village idiot. They are out there somewhere clutching a brass instrument, a baton, a microphone, an adjudicators pencil or strutting around in a committee room. I hope you enjoy the saga...".
