Norbert - Vocal, Drum, Bass, Synth
Daz - Vocals Possee Rap saw the return of Daz to the band. It was recorded live at the 2008 MOBO awards. The following is taken from the MOBO website:
"The 2008 MOBO Awards was one of the largest ceremony's in MOBO history. Held at the London Wembley Arena on October 15th 2008 the event showcased both the breadth of talent within the UK and U.S as well as the growth of the MOBO awards. The event was presented by Ex- Spice Girl Melanie Brown a.k.a Mel B and co-host Rev Run, the founder of Run DMC and featured performances from Estelle, Sugababes, Craig David, Tinchy Stryder, The Fingolstones Firemen, Taio Cruz, Jay Sean, Flo Rida and John Legend. The highlight of the night was the newly reformed Fingolstones Firemen who performed their latest track Possee Rap". Kanye West said of their performance, "That was the biggest pile o shite I've ever seen" It was the Fingolstones first attempt at Rap music since 1990's Foxy Rap, which wasn't even a proper rap really. The lyrics for this song were actually written in the early 1990's by a bored Norbert and Daz whilst sat in a pub in Barnsley prior to an FA cup replay between Barnsley and Sheffield Utd. The lyrics were written on an old paper bag and remained lost in Norberts spare room until being resurrected and developed into this song. Although a MOBO would escape them on this occasion the crowd at the event really got into it and at the after show party Norbert and Daz got stoned on Ventolin with 50 Cent and Adge Cutler from the Wurzels.  Adge Cutler, far left, was never the same again after his night on the Ventolin with Norbert and Daz. It had such effect on him that he re recorded his massive hit "I've got a brand new combine harvester" as "I've got a brand new Vauxhall Chevette" in honour of his new friends.
(Yes I know Adge Cutler died in 1974 and the bloke on the far left is actually Tommy Banner but how much of this crap is actually true?) |
