Blog: The Giddy Whirl

< previous next >
I don't know why, but suddenly it's ALL GO around here. LOADS of stuff seems to be kicking off ready for My Exciting Life In ROCK at the Leicester Comedy Festival the weekend after next (that's February 6 and 7, tickets here if you fancy it). Yesterday I did a phone interview for 10 Days, the festival newsletter, and this morning I did one with The Leicester Mercury. Posters have just gone up there for the venue, and AMAZINGLY we've already sold 25 of the 40 tickets for the Friday night! OK, and only 1 for the Saturday, but still, ot actually looks like someone might turn up!

Meanwhile preparations for the ALBUM continue apace, with FEVERISH activity going on to sort out the multimedia sections. I'm also in the process of trying to sort us out a Press Plugger type - pardon me for saying so, but I think our current promotions team (me) hasn't done too badly on the radio and interweb side of things, but we've never really got very far with The Traditional Print Media and, as the album sounds so GRATE, I thought we'd try and have a proper GO at it this time. Watch this space for RESULTS!

And besides all of THIS - and also on top of my Actual Day Job, which is suddenly HUGELY busy - I've finally managed to have one of the songs I've written to order USED! It's for a internet advert, I think, and it should be finished soon, but first I've got to re-write some of the lyrics... TONIGHT. It turned out that referring to actual real BRAND NAMES in the lyrics might be a bit DODGY, so I need to make them less SPECIFIC, and I need to do it before tomorrow morning. YOINKS!

Luckily I'm off now to meet Mr C Flowers [Cocks, The Fighting] for a BEER. I'm sure that'll be FINE, won't it?
