Tonight I went down to a new open mic night at The White Horse with my mate Toby. It was nice chilled out affair. I played a couple of new songs and a cover of Whiskeytowns ‘Dancing With The Women At The Bar’. Which went down well. A few cheeky ciders too. All round a good night out for a Tuesday! :)
There are 2 record shops left in Barnstaple. I work at Solo Music which is the last proper shop that stocks new releases etc. But Matt The Hat runs a second hand vinyl shop which is a real treasure chest of a shop. He always has something interesting in and he himself is quite the eccentric character. Here he is socking to google street cam outside his shop. A true local legend.

So on saturday I had my first gig of the new year. I played with my good friends Mr Daniel Adam and The Simon Darling Band. It was a great night of diverse acoustic music and I had a real blast getting up on stage for the first time in 2012. I even dropped a couple of new songs into my set which went down well. Good Times!

This is an awesome video by my friend Mike Stocks AKA Mr Pickle. He built the theatre and made the animatronic puppets. A couple of my good buddies were the puppeteers too. Great stuff. If you are reading this then WATCH THIS VIDEO. Its brilliant.
