Ah yes, "Gordon" and "Ian", those scoundrels. I'm afraid your (ex)drummer is probably dead by now. This has been going on for years in Aberdeen but Grampian Police have never managed to get so much as a lead to follow up. The story goes that two men turn up from time to time at The Tunnels and other local gig venues, taking certain band members aside and plying them with drinks and compliments. The names they usually use are Gordon and Ian although they have been known to use Tony and Dave. Whatever names they happen to give, their modus operandi is always consistent. It is thought that they spike the musician's drinks with chemicals which make them groggy and easily manipulated. It is suspected they then hypnotise them and convince them that they must leave their current band and come with them immediately to Abbey Road where they will begin recording the first album of their five album deal. Now what musician doesn't want to hear that?! That's what makes them such easy pickings. The victims usually recount a vague story to their band mates that they are joining a band with an "old friend" and often a band that "has something to do with a guy called Gordon and maybe a guy called Ian or something". This is the drugs, disorientation and hypnosis talking which is why the details are so sketchty and the victim is often seen to be drooling. None of them ever get to Abbey Road. Their bodies usually turn up buggered, scorched and beaten somewhere in the southern outskirts of Aberdeen.
