I haven't written in this for ages...I have been writing in my journal a lot lately. So here's the story: I had one bad thing after another happen me lately, so I am picking up the pieces and trying to move on , forward, upwards, and outwards,...or whatever. Just as I thought things were approaching perfection, one major part of it disintegrated before my eyes lately. That's enough of that, those of you who know me well know what's gone down, the rest of you...well...it the specifications really aren't any of your beeswax....trying to give you a rough idea of the feelings right now...

So I completed the  E.P with the band in Elektra Studios in Dublin (http://www.myspace.com/cajoleandbully) I'm very proud of it, and the band, and can't wait to hear the mix. We are launching it in the Pavilion (Cork) on July 30th...so if you're around , come along, and you can get the E.P for only €3. One night when I was drunk, my bandmate took advantage of me (not in THAT way...) he got me to agree to taking on the support slot for this gig. So , at the time, I thought it was a great idea....and it is....but I was back at the piano today, playing and sqauwking....and I'm thinking to myself: it will take a fucking miracle to get my songs and myself into shape for this gig...it's been MONTHS since I performed solo live....ridiculous. But I can't pull out now, I just have to brave it and work when I can (another problem...no piano in France where I'm going to!) The gig is on the DAY I come back from France (I arrive in Dublin around 2pm) so I'll be scrambling down like a mad thing to be in time for soundchecks etc.

There's also a gig the band are doing in Dublin on July 18th supporting Land Lovers for theior E.P launch, so people up there go to that.

that's about it, seriously freaking over support slot....damn!
