Last night was quite an experience. The arena was massive for a start so the idea of performing to such a large crown got the nerves going. It went really well though. No hiccups at all and after the second track I was quite my usual bantering self. After the performance I did some CD signing at the foyer. I must apologise to Lauren!! You know who you are SORRY! In my post gig haze I struggled with pen and paper and made a mess of her CD. Lauren if you read this I’ll happily send you another CD cover that you can read properly. After the Jools show I met up with Rico Rodrigues http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rico_Rodriguez and Jools’s music researcher. Good people to meet! I got to have a chat with the main man to Mr Holland and left him with a CD….. Which was nice.. So that was the gig. Then it all went mental when I set off to drive home from Cardiff. There was a blizzard!!! I drove for about 2 hours at 15mph sliding all over the road praying for a services. Intense, didn’t like it at all. Still made it home in the end and a whiskey and a cigarette and watched some Fawlty Towers. Ahh home. I’ll pop up some footage soon. Merry Xmas
