All smiles at Sosho after a rugged, dogged six hour performance. A shot of vodka to speed to 344 home in the relentless rain. It’s been a crazy day: the Terry / Bridge pantomime and a severe and unwarranted loss at the Bridge; a quick chat with SP and Y-May in Farm Road; then back across the river and across the tracks to Coronation Street to prepare for the evening.

City Reverb, back in live action with the three piece music unit. Playing a clvilised lunchtime gig at Union Chapel in London.

For the record we played these tunes in this order: 1 Swimming 2 Roll On 3 Backwards 4 All You Need 5 Morning 6 Corner And it sounded great and we played well and Micky said it was the best gig we have done. And even though my fingers felt like sausages I enjoyed playing the bass in such a beautiful space.
