Recent gigs

I like to think I have a gift for refining an audience. Filtering and distilling it until only the best are left. Take Wednesday night at Acoustic Brew for example. Late Night Train did very little work for me, as the place just filled up with people listening intently. A chap read some poems, but was rubbish, as nobody left at all. I refined the audience from 20-30 people to a quality 5 by the time I finished. Then Voodoo Barry undid all my good work, as they all came back in again. Amateurs.
Sunday 31st July was another outdoor "festival-y" gig for Boomshadow. 20 minutes due to a packed programme. Laurence suggested that fancy dress would be the order of the day. We were, variously, Darth Vader, a hazardous waste technician, a clone and something in leopardskin. Pictures on Facebook, free download from soundcloud or bandcamp, yada yada yada. It was fun. A really good use of the recently reclaimed park. Couldn't see my fretboard or my feet though, so the costume has to go!
