New year. Back at work. Had good long Christmas holiday from work. Spent lots of time with wonderful girlfriend, and probably too much playing Guild Wars. Ate a lot, but didn’t drink a lot mostly due to having a head and chest cold for the last 13 days.
Still enjoy my job. Enthusiasm for the band has never been so low though. Perhaps this will change soon when we relaunch with the new name. Hope so. In the meantime have started to revisit music I started writing towards second solo album. Of course, still owe money to backers for producing the first one, which will probably never sell another copy.
About to turn 33 next week. Home PC is almost too ancient to use any more. Car is on last legs. Bank balance is laughable. Waistline appears to be continually expanding. Trainers falling apart, jeans ditto.
On the other hand, I have the love of an amazing woman, a roof over my head, food in the fridge, a job I like, and enough talent in my hands to produce music that entertains people.
I’m the luckiest guy in town.

I completely understand the band thing. I didn’t gig once in 2006, and y’know what? I didn’t miss it a bit.
I hadn’t checked here for a while coz I thought you’d stopped updating - like the new look. Like that you’re blogging again, too :).
I am coming up to my one year annivesary with Cause for Concern and we have our first gig of the year on Jan 20th. However after weds rehearsal there does seem to be a general lack of enthusiasm (not from me I hasten to add) I suspect mostly due to having “been there, done that” as the good Dr so eloquently stated!
I’d also like to add that your playing still impresses me to this day, you’re a talented f**ker, so you are.
Well, it wasn’t the solo album, but I did buy the LM EP for my brother at Christmas. I’ll have to ask him if he liked it. He’s the only one of us living in London, and who knows, he may be encouraged to get along to one of your gigs. What’s the new band name?
Ah, the new band name is remaining under wraps until such time as we have built the site and got everything ready that needs to be got ready.
The revolution will, of course, be televised.
