Things must be busy at the moment as it's been a while, so I'll do my best to bring things up to date.

It has to be said that the week beginning October 15th wasn't a good week. To start with The Police concert was cancelled owing to Sting's allergy to Northern venues, then there was a less than happy night at Sandinista and then it was my birthday. I hate birthdays really, its not much fun when you already feel too old . I've often been accused of being old before my time, so I can only hope that it will all even out sometime, soon hopefully!

Sandinista for NoTitle magazine was on Wednesday October 17th. I say less than happy because I didn't catch the listening element of the audience during my set. I did however catch Gold Junk saying something about Elton John as I left the gig. I do hope it was complimentary.

On Sunday 21st I returned to the steadier pace of the Primrose to be part of Acoustoc 5, for Charity no less! I did a fairly solid half hour and it went well although from what I hear the day was a bit slow throughout.

I then had a week off in South Wales at The Gower Peninsula, very nice indeed. I returend for the Revolution gig on Monday 29th. This was very quiet, but a reasonably happy night. I played 40 minutes as one act had pulled out and did some covers including 'Stuck in a Moment' and 'Handle With Care'.
On Friday I had a look at some potential pubs for the band, which included going into Halifax town centre on a Friday night. This nearly scared me to death.
On Sunday it was time for the latest PJ Band gig at The Railway Berry Brow. I have to say it's been 3 out of 3 good ones there this year, so let's hope it can continue into next year. A thoroughly enjoyable day on every level.

I'll leave it there for now, only a couple of weeks behind now!
