Just gearing up to go on stage in Aberdeen at the Lemontree after driving up from Berwick. We had a very intimate gig in Barrells Alehouse last night, completely unplugged after a couple of easy days mooching around the town. We went along to the beer and food festivals, drank some whisky cider, visited the old-fashioned sweetie shop and bought some Fisherman’s Friends for old time’s sake. We’re settling into the set nicely, Gentry is scooping up accolades from everywhere and being told that he sounds like a young Jackson Browne and Yvonne ’s new album “Ashes and Gold” was given five stars by Maverick Magazine. Me, I am enjoying sitting on the end of the line and singing harmonies.
We have been driving a LOT the last while – Troon to Norwich, Norwich to York, York to berwick, Berwick to Aberdeen and the next journey is Aberdeen to Wolverhampton – Yikes. Driving is made easier by the fact that the three of us share the driving and we pass the time by listening to Roald Dahl audiobooks – “James and the Giant Peach” and “The BFG”. Tonight, we’re going to start Yvonne on Harry Potter, she’s never read any of the books. It’s not rock’n'roll but it keeps her from snorting lines of coke in the back seat when Gentry and I are not watching.
More anon…
