Weekly Escapades Episode 42

Album launch 🚀

[@newsles2]

I am so happy for you guys seeing such support, the album, the launch and how well Kiera has slotted in. A pity she couldn't become a permanent member. Having seen Dave's vlog already, yes, you guys played fiercely. So tight, powerful, compelling, clearly thoroughly enjoying yourselves. Wish I could travel the required 5000 miles to catch you. Maybe if I can get back some time when visiting family you'll be playing somewhere. Best of luck.

Great Channel Dude. Brings a new perspective to the band and its members..Love the backstage stuff. .

[@jpdenk]

What a wonderful band!! If I wasn’t a truly ancient guzzler with health issues, I’d be working on taking a trip across the pond some time to see you perform live when visiting some newly-discovered cousins over there. 😊

[@lightningrt434]

Love the Perspex Ludwig. What really sets it off though is the Heron Foods bag! 😅

[@Claes_Isacson]

Happy Christmas John Joe! Also; That’s quite a solo on those blue Luddies at the end there! 👏👏👏👏🥁

[@bobblake7132]

Mr Gaskin, the launch gig is definitely one of the greatest nights I'll ever have. The experience and memories you all created are priceless, thank you.

[@zubeystinzen540]

What an amazing night,you guys certainly launched into the stratosphere with this gig, the album is a masterpiece & the performance was impeccable. The sound in that room was like no other gig. Well done Red giant. Here's to the 2025 tour & hooking up with you all again, following you around the country in my campervan is my own personal journey of excitement. Happy Christmas to you all ❤

I am still rocking the album, it just gets better each listen. I have over 1000 albums and this is right up there with my favourites. Congratulations on a stellar end to 2024. Cracking solo JJ and Merry Christmas to you mate.

[@adiohead]

Congratulations on the album launch! Place was rammed!

[@mojobag01]

Let's make JJ blush.

[@Jnday]

The album launch gig was awesome, I won’t be forgetting that night, in the mosh pit - which at the Flying Circus meant sitting on a comfortable leather sofa 😂 Yes, still listening to the album. According to Spotify Wrapped, three of my top five songs were yours - Monsters at number 1, Why? at 2 and Was It All My Fault? at 5. Apparently I was in the top 0.05% of listeners globally for Monsters! And that doesn’t include the times I’ve listened to the CD. Still rate it as a top class album.

[@blackgold7416]

I have bought the album on vinyl. Enjoying the music and following your journey. Looking forward to seeing you next year! 😎👍

[@DavidFernley]

One cool kit thank for these escapades just keep the food coming have a good Christmas me old duck

[@nottssundayvinyl4064]

Little known drum fact: John Bonham always had a Heron Foods bag to hand whenever he was playing his Vistalites at Madison Square Garden

[@secretdaisy6484]

Really enjoyed watching the album 💿 launch. Sorry I’m in the US🇺🇸 and couldn’t be there 😢. John Joe I think you are as good as, maybe better than my favorite drummer 🥁 Buddy Miles. The guy was a machine. I got my album 💿 and take it in the car because it’s really good driving music 🎼. I think it would be a good idea for you to get a big Red Giant 🔴banner to hang when you play out. I don’t know how much that would cost but if you don’t have enough money 💷 from album 💿 sales or whatever, maybe do a GoFundMe just for that. It would look really great behind you along with the custom head on your bass drum 🥁. Really like those blue Ludwig’s. Happy Holidays 🎄🎅 There’s more great stuff coming in 2025 ‼️👍☮️🌞🎸🥁🎵⭐️

[@ValéryPESTEL]

I'm a guitarist and i'll will be glad to play with you !!!! Very good drummer !!!! 😉😉

[@lockharthorsburgh8601]

Looks like you sorted shipping, so thanks for the T-shirt and CD. I hope sales have gone well.

[@Stereostupid]

Daym you're killing it on those beautiful blue Ludwig visitile kit! Sounds phenomenal!!

[@stealthy7]
