Exeter Picturehouse 20th May 2010 So I return to the Picturehouse, almost my second home gig wise these days. But it’s a good set up and its exactly the sort of regular gig that I need to get the old confidence up and to try new stuff. Was a bit quieter than usual I guess the film they were showing wasn’t too popular! I played a similar set to last time. Fortunes Light Feel Destiny Friends Forever Hey You Tower of Strength (well the first 20 seconds of haha) Twenty Nine Point Nine To Behold Jessica I thought I made a fair few bluffs, but I was standing up and its sometimes tricky to play the loop pedal. I got a few ideas for next time, I wanted to use my electronic percussion pad though Niall has it in his studio. Was a good night though, and it was great to have the regular posse of Lee-Anne, Tony and Kal there.
Gig at Exeter Havana 4th May Ok so this is a new venue for me, the last time I went anywhere on the quay in Exeter was around 1995 / 1996, the whole place has changed a lot. Havana is a recently done up bar, its very big, has a stage and does very good chips. There was 4 acts on tonight, 3 of them including myself well all one man and a guitar, and the night ended with a dup where one of them also played one of those boxes you sit on and play like a drum sounded very effective. I felt much more confident performing tonight, for one thing the PA was good and I could hear everything crystal clear through the monitor, plus there was a healthy amount of claps from the audience that is always a good sign. The Set List I played: Fortunes Light Feel Friends Forever Hey You (Yes the song by The Cure) Destiny Twenty Nine Point Nine To Behold Jessica This was a solo show as Niall was not available and for once I was feeling comfortable doing it, roll on the next one which will be at the Picture
