Yes, tomorrow is Remembrance Day. I am not talking Armistice Day here. Remembrance Day was a rather famous early 80s pop-synth ditty by the band B-Movie. They are playing a gig tomorrow at the Town Mill in Mansfield.
I shall be in attendance. The rather wonderful Enormous are playing also. This is something to really look […]
Enormous will soon be playing a gig,
It is going to be very big,
I don’t know if I can make it,
My boss is being a git,
They are playing with B-Movie,
It will be truly,
Enormous
Hey baby, at last I have recorded my first musical podcast series. My visit to the Davy Lawrence studio saw me put the finishing touches to my acoustic album ‘Half Nelson’. This glorious aural treat is soon to be released on Big Arena Records and will be available on the website. The podcasts are to […]
Just to pre-warn you - I shall soon be taking a short and well deserved break. I am off to visit my family in the East Midlands. The original trip was meant to coincide with a performance by the mighty Enormous but that gig was cancelled at the last minute by the powers that be. […]
‘Tis the season to get married, or so it seems. All I hear is talk of stag dos and hen nights. Once upon a time these consisted of a drink of an evening, now things are far more complicated. An evening with select friends and family has now expanded into a weekend away. Trips are […]

A few years ago my band played a gig near Nottingham. At the time we were called The Johnsons and we were playing in the palatial environs of Woolaton Park. It was a lovely balmy summer’s day in August. We were honoured to have a guest appearance from Enormous frontman Davy Lawrence on drum, that’s […]
The new Enormous album ‘Electric Baby Grand’ is now available to buy from the Big Arena Records website. If you do not already own this album I suggest you get a copy right now, it will be the best decision you have ever made. Singer/songwriter Davy Lawrence is one of the greatest songwriters of our […]
Hello, I am back. I returned from the idyllic leafy confines of Napoleon’s little village last week. We had a brilliant time and I wish I was back there again. I could easily exchange the dirt, noise and loonies of London for family, nice food and conversation. Maybe soon.
You will hopefully be very happy to […]
This shall be my last post for a while. I am off up north to stay with Napoleon for a few days. We shall record some podcasts for your aural pleasure. I suspect we may also get a little drunk for our pleasure (well mine, I don’t think Nap enjoys drinking anymore). Keep an ear […]
