As promised here is the new competition. The prize will be a signed copy of 1 o n e which is a CD of four unreleased and re mastered songs by Luke and myself. The songs are ZYDO GAZEBO, SIX WHITE HORSES, CATCH MY BREATH and SAY YOU LOVE ME. Some of you will have heard three of these songs in an MP3 format on Myspace whereas the new CD contains the masters. The CD will be available at all our gigs along with a new EBB CD of previously unreleased demos and tracks called The Ones That Nearly Got Away plus a collection of their own demos called Not A Pretty Sight from Steve and Art. All of these CD s will be available at shows on the upcoming tour. Songs from all of the new CD s can be currently heard on our Myspace though the sleeve pics seem to have temporarily gone walkabout. Because the last competition was lost I am going to add a copy of SUPERCHIP signed by all of the EBB and a signed T- Shirt.
So what do you have to do to win the competition?
1. In the comments section of this post write a caption for the photo below of the coppers and little girl. By the way she is Steve’s daughter who has her own family now. She is as gorgeous now as then. This photo is one of my all time favourites.
2. List your three favourite EBB songs.
Steve will judge the best caption to the photo and when we return from Germany we will announce the winner who will have to email a postal address to where the prizes can be sent.
This competition will be live until the beginning of the UK Tour so get posting your captions in the comments section of this post. As in the last competition you can enter as many times as you like providing you enter with a different name or anonymously each time.
The EBB finished rehearsals yesterday in preparation for the upcoming European / UK tour. I can tell you we all worked extremely hard as we wanted to build improvements into the show for 2007. We all ended the rehearsals very happy with the results and we have added a new song called Soldiers of the Light to the show. We have also put Poppy in and Green Lights back in along with Last Electioneer which we took out for a while to save my voice for the Live DVD set in Bonn.
Finally, in response to enquiries regarding obtaining copies of photos from The First Supper and Exhibits from A New Museum I have put details on the Exhibits From A New Museum weblog.

4. You may very well call us PC Plod young lady, but we are, in fact, part of a highly efficient organisation dedicated to impartially maintaining the delicate balance between civil liverties and the rule of law whilst promoting social cohesion within an overarching framework of respect and tolerance for the diverse communities which we humbly serve.
Now move along or you're nicked.

11. Is Steve's daughter saying to the two policmen on the left: "Don't look now, but there's a square-headed ghostly looking robot peering over your shoulders"

12. Is the robot saying out of the way earthlings I will speak only to your leader in the red dress and space pants
13. Is the girl on the right saying: I don't care if you are a drummer in the Edgar Broughton Band, you're not getting off with me with until you grow your hair and get some decent trousers.
14. c'mon guv just 10 minutes off so we can do some grooving to the funky beat man.
15.Is one of the policemen saying. C'mon lads, if we can look silly enough we could end up as a digitised image on a caption competition on a, yet to be invented, worldwide network of computers viewable by billions of people in every corner of the globe.
