Frightening!  I can feel cavitities resonating in my head that I didn’t know existed as I hit notes I didn’t know I could sing. Goodness knows what I will sound like after a few months of this!

I am having a minor rebuild on my vocal style at the moment, and I felt like I was beginning to be able to ‘do the business’ live during the gig. Met a producer who asked for a promo pack, which was gently encouraging …

Also have just been confirmed for Romsey Beggars Fair, which is very exciting.

It seems that someone or something exploited a Wordpress vulnerability and messed up all the content in the process. Probably took milliseconds to make an evening’s work for me. C’est la vie.

Most of me stayed warm, but my guitar playing was definitely hampered by playing with gloves. Tried one number without, but quickly couldn’t feel my fingers. Still, I enjoyed the outing, and was given a warm welcome by Mark and the guys from Down2Earth.

It’s an afternoon start (15:30), which turns out to be quite prescient given the chances of getting a crowd on Rugby World Cup night!

Full address is 59b Denmark Hill, London, SE5 8RS. The actual venue is just off Denmark Hill, diagonally accross from Pizza Hut. Patrico is playing in support (http://www.myspace.com/patric0), and there will be a bar at the venue.

Glad to be there, now I’ve finally sorted it out.

Not sure why the people who have www.myspace.com/bendalby and www.myspace.com/dalby have those addresses - but I can take responsibility for leaving it so long to get my act together!
