Men In General
5-man à cappella show  -  a barometer of blokedom, a Beaufort Scale of wind & wisdom, a thermometer of harmony under the fevered tongue of sham excuses.

Tim Cranmore , Jim Howden , Adrian Mealing, Will Tooby & special guest talk and sing Beirut , The Spooky Men’s Chorale, Beatles, Beach Boys, Stephen Stills, a lyric about Elvis by Liverpool poet Brian Patten & more manly compositions.

Here be songs to stir the hardest heart, the horniest hand, the driest eye. Igneous à cappella at its rockiest.
