Callassa's HOT year!

Rock and Roll. Hells Angels and Royal Enfields... Great Britain and the 1970s come alive again. It's 2010. The Chippers are a Rock and Roll Band. They are a throwback to the 1970s era, when British bands reigned supreme. The Chippers live in Little Hampton, a small town of terraced houses, the led astray, numerous gangsters, Satanists, other anti-socialites of varying degree and the many, associated goings-on. It's a dangerous and infamous place, stationary in time, but the atmosphere contains pure magic. (No one goes there unless they have to). In an upstairs room at the Old Lantern pub, there's a great ambition raging aflame. There are four guys who call themselves The Chippers. They've matured from throwing eggs at people (their trade mark of younger days), from riding their Royal Enfields across the North Yorkshire moors (they are Hells Angels), to playing rock and roll. Their music has unique flavor. They just have to get it all together. Mick Helmsley is lead vocals. Terry Culzean plays lead guitar. Balthazaar Blackness plays percussion and Pete Kenilworth is the keyboard and bass player.
The book is about their many tribulations. It's about living somewhere like Little Hampton and receiving support from the local fraternity of like minds. They being as fascinating as the band! Hey and I just forgot, there's Candida Johnson, Mick's schizophrenic and devastating girlfriend.

Note: The Chippers are 'Yorkshire lads' at their most raw. The book is written in the vernacular. It's therefore not suitable for the under 17s. Nor is it suitable for the faint hearted.

PS. Love, love, loved this book. Yorkshire forever! Rock and Roll! That gig at the end, electric in more ways than one. Who would do that to somebody on stage? It's just terrible! DMC
