Last night I went to the O2 Arena in London to see Roger Waters perform the Wall. Around the time I booked the tickets (possibly a year ago!), I had heard that David Gilmour would be guesting with Roger on one of the nights.

Another band I’ve recently started working with is The Red Hot House Band. Based around Milton Keynes, the band is perfectly geared to keeping the party going all night long!

Last night I went to an excellent jazz venue in Oxford called the Spin. it’s held every Thursday night at the Wheatsheaf in the centre of the city. It’s a bit tricky to find (down a narrow alley along one of the main roads in the centre), but well worth the search! Last night saw [...]
