Hello All,
It's been a heck of a long while since I made a blog entry. What's been going on? Well, since the turn of the year I've become a Dad, Thomas is 17 weeks old now and is coming on well. In fact he's teething so bless him he's in pain a bit.
Most of you who read this blog will know by now that I'm leaving the band at the end of July...well that's the plan anyway, we'll see how things go. It was one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make, given that the last 5 years have been the best I've ever had and these 3 have been a big part of that. Best thing is they're really good mates and long may that side of things continue despite me no longer being their to harrass and abuse on a Gig night! The joined up XLR won't have the same effect anymore :-) I plan on getting back into music of some sort in about a year, just need a bit of time off the concentrate on the Family and the job.
We've played a few good gigs this year so far, the Cricket Club at Sacriston, The Shoe at Crook, The Grand at Bishop, my mates 40th Birthday at Belmont all cracking gigs. The most recent ones being the Moorhouse at Seaton Burn, our first time there, really good crowd, really nice staff and a cracking venue. Fri just gone saw us play a charity do for Diabetes. We were last on after Steve Fothergill and his marra with legs like a sparra and Mr Fox (can't remember his first name) a comedian who never swore through the whole set and was pretty funny too.
We played a really good gig, saw us play about 20 tunes in an hour....had reservations about the sound but thought it was pretty good once the room had filled up a bit. Thanks to everyone who came a long, contributed and enjoyed themselves.
Well, I'm off to do some work in my dressing gown. Take care all, hope to see you at one of my last gigs before the end of July.
