Festival Season
Today I am enjoying a quiet weekend of laundry and car-washing and things of that nature, which is just as well, because next weekend things start to spiral out of control.  I cannot emphasize enough that this chaos will be good chaos.

Next weekend, we're playing a festival in Wales.  I've just realized that that is literally all the information I have.  It is quite small, I am driving us there, and it is in Wales.  Somewhere.

The weekend after that we're playing this little thing called GLASTONBURY.  Perhaps it is vulgar to boast about this on one's blog but I honestly, truthfully do not care.  I do need wellies, though.

The weekend after that we're playing the Festival de Bobital in Brittany, meaning I get to drive to Calvados country, play a pretty big stage at the same festival as the Sex Pistols, and get paid for it.  I will be eating crêpes like they're going out of fashion, believe me.

The weekend after that we're playing a festival in Milton Keynes.  Last time I played there (actually in Wolverton) I quipped that we had hit the big time.  Apparently, though, now we have.  No idea where we're playing in shiny Milton Keynes but it probably isn't the bowl.  I will still take a leaf out of Marilyn Manson's book and yell "MIL-TON KEEEYNES!" though.

The weekend after that I will be sleeping.

I hope.

I'm off to laugh uncontrollably and do some laundry.  I do hope you're all feeling fab.

Stick a piece of paper to the back of your guitar.

Advice on French girls: try saying 'Je suis un rock star'.

:p

Hee hee!

All those years of you calling me "rock star" are finally justified.

By the way, are you still in or near Spokane?  I ask because there's a guy been doing series on the ARP 2600 and Korg MS20 synthesizers, among other things, and he has music going on there, notably

He is fantastic!

I have just spent like 30 minutes on his site. Where's your MySpace?

Looks like he never/doesn't like to play here. Which is sad, indeed.
