    Cool Birmingham Beer Festival

    http://www.birminghambeerfestival.org.uk/

    getting my gig spam in early but this is a decent gig by our standards, sharing the saturday night slot with two of Ocean Colour Scene.

    I'll be easy to spot if you come - apart from being on stage at some point I'll be the one sober person there.

    Give myself some bumpage then!

    Every time I think about this gig I start crapping myself - so if anyone wants to see me have a nervous breakdown in public make this a date in your diary!

    We are on Saturday 27th October, Second City Suite in Birmingham ( near the city centre).

    I appear to have a gig that night, or else I'd pop along... Although the band online calendar says we're in Birmingham that night.

    Wait.. you're my replacement in the band, aren't you?!

    well, I was trying to find a way to break it to you - the band wanted someone better looking....

    I have the same birthday as Bradd Pitt - when I see him on tv it's like looking in a mirror. I notice I've been growing my hair out a bit.

    Took a lot to get the audience warmed up ( although I was sweating like a PIG). The clip I posted was the encore -singer goes 'Wipeout' I think 'we haven't actually played this for months, don't know what sound I want and the drummer always cocks it up' so, all considering, it went well!
