Retrospective write up - Jan 09

The gigs hadn't really been going so well in the run up to Christmas. I was, however, looking forward to the last gig. I was MCing a gig in Cradley Heath. It has a small regular crowd and I've had fun there. I think I was feeling down. However, Cradley is a place where you can mess about and try new stuff. So, I tossed the main ideas of a song together in the car on the way to the gig and wrote it down quickly on a notepad before the gig started.

My song about self-love at Christmas is my only performed attempt at a Christmas themed bit of material. I'll have to wait another year to try it.

At some point I sang and they brought out the chips. I love the odd things that I can take for granted.
