The Weekenders

@msjulianneregan The Weekenders are mentioned in this surreal occurrence which references a demo tape from 1994. What fun.

Well this is interesting. An old demo of Bernard Butler and me has surfaced. The song eventually became 'Yes', the number one 'smash hit' for McAlmont & Butler.

A bizarre connection, The Weekenders are mentioned in this discovery of a @msjulianneregan and Bernard Butler demo, an early version of Yes by McAlmont And Butler. Cassette sleeves are mixed up with one being a sleeve for the Weekenders demos.... youtu.be/gE0COhKyugQ?fe…
