Great news for all the religious music fans out there as Randy, the country’s “number two” sexually-deviant wooden “friend of Jesus” (as recently voted for on BBC Radio 2) is back. This Friday night he’ll be performing his hits at Beckworth’s number one real ale venue and will be joined on stage by his relatives (and amateur ventriloquists) Uncle Len & Aunt Nancy Wheely. Randy’s Uncle is said to be well rested after three months spent at Her Majesty’s pleasure and says the threesome are looking forward to getting our bank holiday started with a real Christian swing. The born-again hitmaker’s are promising to sing all of their “C of E” cover versions and a few new surprise songs that Len learnt in prison. They will also be signing copies of their recently deleted debut album Do You Know Jesus?, and have some T-shirts and underwear to flog. It’s only a £7.50 on the door and this weekend’s featured ale at the pub is Mary’s Magical May Hem. Warning: If you don’t like people singing about Our Lord then please stay at home!
