ORAL HISTORY:
SEAN: When The Notebooks played a party in Gosford in 2008, a fella named Lucas Woods expressed interest in starting a band with Alex and I. Alex had asked me if I wanted to be in another band with him, part new material, part playing old Extra Limb stuff again.

SEAN: Lucas left while we had a show booked at the Lansdowne, and I asked Koby if he would care to play for us that night. He said sure, and after two weeks rehearsal, he nailed it.
