After a week of gigs and my mate from Unis hen-do thrown in for good measure I’m quite thankful that this week is a little bit more chilled. Catch up on some sleep and a little bit of detox all around. Actually looking back i feel like its been MUCH longer than a week but all for good reasons! I played the fab Mash Gallery in St. Helens, Festival Express (which is perfectly on my doorstep and i got to proof my Rolling Stones covers..), Lark Lane Healing day (where i got some amazing soup and a lovely family audience for a change) and Under the Influence…Rolling Stones @ Studio 2 (hosted by the fab Kaya). It’s the first time in aaaages I’ve played any covers (and i’m not amazing at remembering my own lyrics nevermind other peoples..even if it is the Rolling Stones).. The tunes I settled on playing in the end were ‘Paint it Black’ and ‘Gimme Shelter’ after a little Facebook call-out for suggestions. I went for making them a bit more my own as opposed to straight up covers….check ’em out!
The rest of the weeks good news comes in the form of 2 very favourable reviews….
I also had my pic and part of an interview in this edition Nerve Mag Liverpool. Cheers to Sebastian and the rest of the Nerve crew.
i’m now heading off to learn the guitar solo for Master of Puppets for one of my guitar students…..did i say my week was more chilled out…..
