Day three started with a meditation in the barn, i told my cottage in the country story followed by One in a Million by Chris Wood, this was intended to inspire and wake up some new avenues of inspiration, instead it sent most people in to tears, i was moved that they were moved, we […]
The Virgin train to Liverpool was on time and swift, i had just enough time to reflect and think about my week, and the day ahead. Once in town i meet up with Emma and her two lovely children Ester of the Kindle and Joseph. He is a great singer but more than that he […]
Everyone arrived last night and off we went to the local pub in Sheep Wash, a sleepy village with a lovely sleepy pub. Easter Sunday. The first night is always interesting as people get to know one another, and some of the old hands on deck helped oil the wheels of friendship. Haroula had flown […]
I woke up in my hotel room at 6.02 my view out the window was of the dock in Southampton, i had hardly slept. I was like a 10 year old, so excited to wake up and see the Queen Elizabeth cruise gently passed my window. The sun was yellow and low in the blue […]
My first real solo show ever, and al because the lady loves Milk Tray. I turned up at six un loaded the car, set up, had an Indian on my own in the dressing room. I looked at all the empty chairs in the dressing room and realised that this was it. Me Solo. The […]
I went to see Peter Kay at the 02 as an end of tour treat, its my third time and my sides were bursting with laughter even though most of the jokes i knew. He looked after Gordon and the girls well, he is so lovely and one of the humblest people i have ever […]
Cool undiscovered hippy boho enclave in the Yorkshire Dales. Lovely gig and people. All in the car for the longer than expected drive from Glasgow down the country to the scone filled plaza of Hebden Bridge. Our soundcheck took a record hour and half and diner in the near by Thai was even slower but […]
What a way to end a tour, a 24 piece choir and a take away curry to die for, and i almost did. This venue is so special it being in a bus garage, the stage and the sound were all perfect. Thank you Chris. The choir from Sharp, a local rehab i know well, […]
St Andrews in the Square is a lovely concert venue and i would like to thank Boo and Audrey for doing such a great job of booking this tour for me, there has been fuller houses than before and the venues are much better for me. Hip hip… Diner was very nice and we sat […]
As if things could not get any better, and retrograde hits, i can feel it already, its pinching my sides. In the car and off to pick up Doz and David for our six hour drive to Musslebourgh in Scotland. Its a long one. The Theatre is small and compact, there is plenty of room […]
