First solo gig for 7 years, and first gig at all for 3 1/2 years (that was with the band). I'm quite looking forward to it... but is Guildford ready for me?!?!

Time for a come-back I think. I once pulled in crowds of up to er, about 20 at a time!!!

This was me 4 years ago...

Great news Ollie.

what kind of music are you into.?

Jim used to do lots of pub gigs.Good fun.

Think guitar...think John Renbourn.........Jim knows him pretty well.

Had a special treat,he came and played at a friends 50Th last year.

MAGIC :)

how interesting

you seem to be surrounded by a strange orange glow. Has the camera captured you in the process of being transformed into a higher life form on the Astral Plane, the Astral Plane, or did you just have some Reddy Brek?

and what's the"otting" on the drum kit short for?

good luck

The music is kinda "Folky Punk" - or "Angry Folky stuff"... My favourites are early Dylan, Screaming Trees (Mark Lannegan), Sonic Youth & the like... plus I grew up hearing Highland Folk music! It's messy abstract stuff to a good heavy bit of guitar... And harmonica when I forget the words.

RT, I do move into a higher state when playing... it's like God fills me up & transports me to another dimension. Not really, I think the flash didn't go off! And the "otting" is "Vomspotting" - something to do with the drummer's weirdness.

It's Monday night, just a half hour slot...

Another one... before I get beamed up!

 just got an ad at the bottom of the page "click here to be a guitar god real fast" Is it too late for me? ;D KUM BAYA MY LORD, KUM BAYA.......

Folky Punk is better than Pokey Funk. OR IS IT?

second one is old - he's smokin a f*g!
