GRAHAM BROWN DREAMS.......A BLOODY NIGHTMARE.


Spending time in hospital can be a healing and/or harrowing  experience, as regular Shedder Graham Brown is well aware.  And of course, when surgery is involved, so are potent cocktails of all sorts of mind bending pharmaceuticals.  It may have been as a result of a drug induced dreamlike state that Graham started having nightmares about the quantities of blood being extracted from his body during a recent hospital episode.

 

Why did the late night nurse look so excited when she was about to take a sample? What was that red stain on the other nurse’s lip? Are vampires just the stuff of legend?  Or............??


Real or imagined, it was questions such as this that spurred Graham to start obsessing about vampires. Next thing you know he was jotting down lyrics to a song he eventually titled 'Ward Vampire'. Of course it is a piece of pure bleedin' fiction, which we had lots of fun extracting.

 

Got a taste for the red indeed!  HERE is what the Shedrats cobbled together around Graham's lyrics.

 

Hope y'all like it, and that it keeps the vampires at bay.
