Alistair Griffin Gig

17th December

Just coming to the end of a 10 day run of gigs with "Legends" including a rather nice gig at Blenheim Palace. Also finished rehearsals for the Alistair Griffin gig.

The gig is at Temple Hall, York St. John College, on Sunday 18th December. Great band on the gig including Huw Jacob on bass, Rich Chance on keyboards, Simon Faulkner alongside myself on guitar and the awesome Alex "Acky" Yates on drums.

1st December

December's lick now available over at the tutorials page.

21st November

Busy rehearsing for gigs with Alistair Griffin of the BBC's Fame Academy. On receiving the CD, I was pleasantly surprised to hear some very good songs. Great band for the gig too, will keep you posted.

Been keeping busy with the Legends show too, had a couple of society parties in London, one at the Grosvenor House Great Room another at Cliveden Stud. Among the guests were the likes of David Frost and Andrew Lloyd Webber, I missed my chance to play some cheesy quotes from his songs in my solo's though!

22 August 2005

Just trying to recover from a heavy weekend in London with the Legends show. The gig was at Claridge's in Mayfair, I had a crap gig but the show as usual went down really well. Had some great food at the hotel, and as it turns out celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay runs the restaurant, so well recommended if you fancy pushing the boat out.
