Yes, the Paul Jeffery Band was back at The Hop in Wakefield last Friday (the 24th) for our only show of the week. Last time we were there it was a very good night and, if anything, this time was even better!
The best thing about the Hop is that it gets rather busy, and an audience is a great help at a gig! Better still, the audience is very knowledgable and so songs such as 'Badge' went down very well. Also our interspertions of various other songs went down very well, none more so than my blast of Neil Young during 'So Lonely'! Even better than that, the beer is first class (I wasn't driving!) and so I would rate this gig very highly. It even felt like summer as well with the window folded back, so we were playing to the people out on the terrace (the outside bit) as well as those inside. That's like a semi-outdoor gig I suppose!
The following night I was working with Atlanta Soul in North Wales at what must surely have been one of the most picturesque venues I've ever done. It helped that it was a pleasant evening with the sun shining down the river Conwy valley. A most beautiful setting for a gig, or anything else for that matter.
Owing to my cold the preivous week, I was struggling to record the last vocals for the new album, so hopefully I can make some headway with that this week, in between the 3 gigs I'm doing!
Of course, as soon as the album is finished, there will be many blogs, bulletins, emails, courier pidgeons and smoke signals sent out.
