12 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT MEN DIAMLER…
1.Men Diamler is from the Southwest of the Northeast.
2.Books tours with a bucket of cement and a mechanical drill - ie DIY
3.Sells tickets for tribute acts,spiritualists and retired cricketers when he is not Men Diamler.
4.Dislikes London, he has now quit playing there for good.
5.Likes the fact somebody once described his singing voice as akin to “Roy Orbison with two punctured lungs”, and is glad it wasn’t an iron lung.
6.Has covered Jacques Brel, Elvis, Son House, Trad Arr & Swans live. He likes all those acts quite a bit, too.
7.Has a song about a horse who is starved by his owner so that he can use it’s ribs as a xylophone. The horse gets naturally gets revenge.
8.Makes drone/noise/improv musick under the name FRANZ REICHELT. If you don’t know who the inspiration behind FRANZ IS, look on youtube.
9.Men Diamler divides the audience. Sometimes this happens right down the middle, which is good as it makes it easier for him to walk around while singing a spiritual/hymn.
10.Considers the dead poets are better than the living ones, and the gulf increases everyday.
11.Can’t tell if the glass is half empty or half full - because it is a can.
12.Doesn’t like writing his own press releases. The code is chilly.
