A couple of weeks back I fell off a ladder fixing a light in the kitchen just before a run of 5 gigs. I managed to get through those OK. I did bruise my left hand but was able to get through it all, then subsequently I had a lot of bruising on my lower back and bum and later I discovered my right hand had also taken a beating. I seem to be functional and mending but I also did jar my neck a bit too just for added spice. Luckily I didn’t hit my head. A moments lack of concentration and I stepped into the void. Do not recommend. Shortly after this I heard a friend had busted a hip dancing. I do not relish the ‘random stuff happening’ element that seem to increase with the passing of time. For the present I continue bruised and a somewhat battered. So in addition to my usual arthritic grumbles I have a had a few extras. On the plus side I got a higher than l was expecting PPL/PRS royalties payout this quarter that has covered my car insurance for the year so I can still pretend to be a songwriter/composer.

Images are deceptive. What you see and what you get are no guarantee of quality so dear buyer beware of what you find there.
I continue to work away as ever on my musical diversions many and various as presented here above with a recent recording. The absurdity of knowing that there is so much one does not know, whilst listening to others attempt to school us is ever present too.

I am doing a few brief video chats to camera just for fun on some of my social media as an experiment. I am not sure how well that will work but its something different at least.
I think I have slightly fried my brain cells in the last few months. I have been thundering away writing and recording stuff at slightly manic level of output. I need to have a refresh of sorts. I am not too good at chilling out.

Last year apart from all the other music doings I recorded 132 of my own original songs and instrumentals. This year so far its 32. Some are good though a lot are very average. That’s Bi-polar for you, but you get to a point where you cant switch off. I have been deliberately listening to music this last week that I really like for a bit of inspiration and different directions. Not just the harmonic construction, melodys and so forth but also the production and sound. I am starting to chase my tail a little.
