Sorry, its been a while.
Have been staying in Travel Lodges which dont have phones, so it hasnt been easy to get on line. Thats my excuse anyhow for the lack of a diary entry in the last week or so. Finnished the Suzanne Vega tour in London last night. All the dates went really well and seem to have made a lot of new friends.Sunday will remain in the memory a long time though. I woke up in Belfast, having played at the Summer Madness Festival the night before. I played a lunchtime show there too and was then driven quickly to the airport to catch a plane to Liverpool. As i had flown to Belfast from Luton ( we played Milton keynes the night before and it was the closest airport to get to N.Ireland), my car was parked at Luton. I had therefore arranged to hire a car at Liverpool to drive down after the show. Got to Liverpool only to find complications about my driving licence which resulted in having to be driven to the Philamonic Hall, pick up a member of the crew who could hire the car for me, go back to the airport with them, pick the car up and go back to the hall. I had been told i was on stage at 8 oclock but driving back i got a call to say it was 7.30, the only problem being it was already 7.27 and i was still a mile or so from the venue. So, we get there a few minutes later, i step out fo the car, out of the car, my guitar is strapped onto me by a kind roaddie and i walk straight out onto the stage..just like Elvis! I hadnt stopped for 8 hours and for some reason i broke my record of CD sales as a support act! Anyhow, it was a good tour, thanks Suzanne. Apart from Abbotsbury on Saturday i`m done till i go to Canada in a few weeks, time to crack on with the new album.
