"i'm gonna start and end in the same place,
but the journey there is gonna be uhm,... different"
these are the words i opened my set with last week at the charter... it was a return gig, having played there as part of the festival over the jubilee weekend, there was a lot of partying there over the bank holiday so something a lil' more chilled seemed in order...
opened with the chicken, as per my advisory intro... before a short 'zombie suite', one track short of a trilogy but i do think having an electronic AND acoustic zombie trilogy may be taking things a step too far...
there was a second outing for newbie 'luggage', the one with the happy eels vibe (and caught on camera in its early proto-form by stevie), which inspired a rare outing for 'beautiful blues' that was well received all round...
'bullet' drew a promise from stevie to dress up in a cape and boots at my next album launch gig... therefore it is imperative that i get my sh!t together and get the beast recorded...

i did play sunny afternoon on my last visit, but this time it was by request... it still rang true with what i said at the start, i played it much earlier in the set last time - so definitely a different way round :o
closed with the spy music... and the sexy chord - as you do!!
all-in a top night, always a pleasure, nice to meet some friends old and new...
thanks as ever to stevie for having me over - thang officially shaken (even if in a slightly more laid-back manner)
until the next time, which is FOXTON LOCKS FESTIVAL...
peace-out y'all...
