Fill-In's
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Over the years, we've had the odd fill-in Muso.
Check 'em out, they're all very good, and all got the "Rum Blood"

Ingrid Laguna
Ingrid filled in a few times while Raju was off touring in India. Great player X-Ruby Fruit Jungle.
Thanks again Ingrid!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mark Grunden
Mark filled in with us several times, while Raju was off touring with Slava Gregorian. X-Bad Boys Bacuda, currently with TumbaRhumba..
Mark has also played alongside Raju with Sforzando creating a massive percussion sound.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Matt Fagan
Matt sits in with us every now and again. A great support act for us.
Here, seen with a 10 string guitar, Matt really knows his stuff, lately spending his time playing on cruises around the world.
As good pirates do!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's Misha Long
Seen here offending the most open minded at one of our Cd launches.
Misha co-wrote the words to "A Bachelor's Spatula".
The only non-member of SFORZANDO to get a writing credit!
In England at the moment, can't wait to catch up with ya mate.

Cynthia McCracken
Cynthia has worked on our Vocals, arranged all our choirs, and supported us on many occasions.
She happens to be Dave's wife, so I guess he gets extra vocal attention than the everyday Sforzando member.!
She runs a singing school in Hawthorn.
If you want a look, some excellent singers have walked through her school in past years.
Thanks for all the help Cynf.

Shags from Commissioner Gordon - Plays electric grunge guitar at selected Sforzando gigs..
A.K.A Sharon Ryan
A.K.A. Tiger Ferndell
A.K.A. Plastic Fantastic!
When we need a hard edge, she's the one to recruit on to our pirate ship..
Dave recorded "Mutiny" with her last electric guitar. Since STOLEN by a prick from The 9th Ward..
If we ever find the thief, we'll keelhaul him/her. Pirates are great robbers, but they don't steal guitars from Pirate Chicks!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's Chris from Mutiny
he joined in for "Drunken Sailor" at a Folk Rave night in Port Fairy.
If you haven't seen the great band, Mutiny, do it. They're sounding better than ever.
The new CD sounds great too.

This is Mutiny playing at Port Fairy 2002
Chris has a consistancy and a natural rhythm with the mic stand (compare techniques in the above photos)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The bald guy here is John Kendall, he filled in for Scott when we headlined the National Celtic Festival.
This shot was taken of John busking at Port Fairy 2002

Here we have Dave Briggs, he filled in for Karen on bass one afternoon at Vic Uni.
This is him recording us at the cd launch of "Midnight at the Lighthouse"
He recorded and mastered a big part of "Hideous Sea Creatures"
You gotta feel for the bloke putting up with all our sorry stories and lack of vocal talent.
Thanks for all the support you give us Dave, we really appreciate your pirate views.
