The Flailing Pits, the UK's 19th best indie/rock/80s keytar-based cover troupe, was formed by a group of hotties that had two things in common:
• We love music
• We quite fancied being in a band
• We'd all lost close friends and family to cancer and wanted to raise a laugh and funds
So three things in common. Too lazy to run a marathon and too frightened to jump from a plane, showing off to our friends and charging them for the privilege seemed an ideal way to raise money and the Pits were born.
We play a few times a year around London and the South East. Come along, or book us for your wedding, birthday or work bash. We haven't done a funeral yet, but never say never.
We don't take a penny, we pay for petrol, parking tickets and pepperamis. 100% of the money charged or raised goes to a better cause. Thanks to our amazing audiences, we've raised over £50,000 for charity and we'd like to raise more!
