gig done (now to recover)

horsemouth is back from the gig. though it did take him a while to remember quite how he got back on his way back himself and neil had popped out for a sneaky last pint. he thinks he can visualise the route - he was at the kebab place (falafel wrap) and then would have headed up towards lower clapton at that point he would have (inadvisedly) dived off down the first road which turfed him out, to his surprise, near the bottom of chatsworth road (from there his feet would have known the way). 

the gig went well (only one song broadbury down crashed and burned. this was because howard added an unauthorised harmony vocal).  all my dreams got an outing. eyepennies got an outing. amarach got an outing. an all new set with some attempt to sing harmonies. 

this is dangerous for horsemouth because he's not a strong singer and gets easily towed off the ground. 

now the other two acts harmonies were immaculate - the water chorus  and lou and leo. it was waterintobeer's 8th birthday, horsemouth thanks martin for booking them. lou's album launch is soon. the water chorus did a song about living and working on canal boats that had the same tune as champion at keeping them rolling (which itself lifts the tune of the limerick rake - hard working boater sung by david blagrove).

anyway. he's back he's ok. but he's got to be back off to the wilds on monday (so let him know if you want to catch up).
