Introduction

From his book "Scunnered"

Achilles' Last Stand

Gilbert Fonts strumming,
monotonously thrumming
and vying to cling
to the original
tune.

Desmond Fonts drumming;
Stanley Blade humming
and trying to sing
and the pub's not
immune.

Ernesto Caan numbing
the ears with brass plumbing
and we're dying to wring
his windpipe
real soon.

and intervening Clifford
-the landlord- Gifford
snatching the mic
from Stanley's
hand,
with a vitriol vamp
he booms through the amp
"Disband your band,
you're banned!"
