Toon 2

Ended up back in Newcastle Tuesday for another event, this time "Industry All Stars". Took a few pics, most were a bit poor as the venue was dark and I'm not fully skilled up yet. I'll bang a few up on flickr later on. After the event, it was Pitcher and Piano time. I got very excitable, particularly after a tipoff from the barstaff saying how much was left on the tab...champagne time then. Ended up at the apartment again which was quiet (Tuesdays I guess). No scatman.

Sunday Jam

Had a nice time at the Leopard yesterday, once the bass cab was replaced it got going. Highlights include Buddy sporting a new amp and Dave, who played a blinder on drums despite not really being present. I managed to last till about 9:30 then amnesia set in and the last thing I remember was deb coming to pick me up. Very nice.

Did you hear the one about the afro/geordie skat champion and the Bancock ladyboys?

Went up to Newcastle yesterday for a meeting about the playstation 3 network. Useful info gathered, we headed into town for a few. Started with a bit of perudo which went down well with the boys, then on to the apartment where we witnessed a great freestyle singer and downed a shedload of G&T. My phone died, no doubt videoin' the inside of my pocket so we ended up back at the Jurys Inn for a nightcap and a chill to some Dirty Funk. Carter and Tom were with me so we had plenty to laugh about even before Marytn turned up. No losses, dignity or otherwise, very nice evening.

Life!

Czech it out!

Wonderful time in Leipzig/Prague. Here's a few starters while I catalogue the rest of this fun.

Das Boot - First beer in Leipzig, better make it a small one then.
