friends,
spring is in the air and i'm having a week to take stock. it started saturday with a southsea diy punk rock mega show featuring livers and lungs, wooden bullets, bangers and the mighty plymouth country twang wreaking ball that is crazy arm. several croud surfs later we're into sunday with a trip up to london to watch chad rex, jon snodgrass (drag the river/armchair martian) and joey cape (lagwagon/bad astronaut). first up was chad rex whose songs you get drawn into from the off, well worth a look. jon snodgrass is a country rocking punk dude who can make a washburn acoutic tear wallpaper off and a voice that both yells and soothes in equal measures. joey cape is as many of you'll know a tiny dude with some seriously caustic lyrics and about a zillion songs which defy genre and stand up incredibly well in a acoustic setting as well as when delivered 100mph with lagwagon blazing. we had to leave as is often the case to get the last train south, waited for 'violins' and left as 'may 16' was being given the stripped down treatment. monday saw some studio/garden shed action with the guys from hometown show. i played and sang on two new songs for their upcoming cd which was fun. tuesday we went for curry. wednesday was a trip to brighton after which i listened to the new album from pop wunderkind james cooper, which amazingly he wrote/recorded/mixed in his bedroom in record time. thursday drinks with dave and steve and now i'm on a hazily sunny isle of wight in my old bedroom, nice.
