So, apparently i'm meant to actually update this blog thing reguarly. Let's see how that goes.
Well, today I've been on location for the filming of a couple of acoustic songs with Alex Clough & Neil Collins (the makers of the 'Insects' video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAIFQ6yURUw). Dave Draper (my producer http://www.track-in-the-box.co.uk) kindly joining us to record it all and Joe Singh (photographer http://www.snaprockandpop.co.uk) to.....be Joe Singh. I jest. He got some excellent shots, so no change there. Hadn't quite contemplated how hard it was going to be. Playing gentle songs in the freezing cold, trying not the shiver and ruin the take is pretty tough! Just about managed though.
It's nice to spend some time in the great outdoors with some great friends though. Been too long. Back to it again tomorrow, but this time we'll be indoors, However, it's a pretty derelict location, so no heat again. It's all good fun though, and i have no doubt that it'll have been worth it when i see the final videos. It's quite enjoyable playing strictly unplugged for a change, even if a little daunting being 'warts and all'. I'll pop the links up when they're ready. Shouldn't be too long at all.
Back to it, then....
Feel free to pop back some time, and feel free to pass my links onto a friend. Or seven.
Thanks,
Howard
