Second Rollers
Bilbo
Baggins were originally labelled the "Second Rollers".
"That's just because we come
from Edinburgh and have got the same manager, Tam Paton," reckoned
Bilbo member, Brian Spence. "But other than that we couldn't be more
different!"
Bilbo have released a couple of
singles but neither of them quite made the charts.
"We've done some great gigs
tho'," said Brian. "We toured with Mud at the end of last year
and we've got plenty of other goodies lined up..."
Bilbo had the same kind of problem as John Miles in the
beginning, tho'.
"We've had a fantastic following in Scotland for years.
All we need to do now is make the break over the
border - but that's harder than it sounds," said Fid.
"The English audiences are very
hard to get to know, but our tour with Mud helped us a lot. We had a great
laugh too! You can just imagine what It's like working with the Mud lads,
can't you?"
