Tour Record (1) – 11-NOV/2010

Hackney Wick (w/ William Wells on Violin)

Setlist: For Us For Me / Teenage Eyes / I Am Home

Where are we? A converted studio, divided into rooms and creative spaces. Sitting at the back by the windows looking down the room at faces. Exposed and intimidated? Yes and yet no. This is a choice and sometimes I forget that. And if indeed it is a choice, then surely we make the ones that seem best. It doesn’t make sense to do the opposite.

Tomorrow we hit the road, and as we land we’ll either keep our feet or we’ll greet the tarmac and bruise our lips. For the next 10 days we have only ourselves as we exit one bubble and travel in another. A handful of songs with a couple of ways to play them; good or bad.

Tonight was good. Tonight was good. Well, tonight was tonight and tomorrow is a memory waiting to happen.

And Tobi is a beatboxer.

You didn't really say how magical it was - your music played as never before - exposed maybe but also fresh and beautiful, everyone sitting on the floor attentively listening , the fairylights on the rafters.
Well that was how I viewed it :-)
