Fulfilling day in amongst financial worries & emotional ups & downs...
Me & Emma are back together - after a break of a few months - a touch shaky as all such things are - less than a week in & it doesn't yet feel normal... i trust it will...
gigging tonight with the spanners in angel - the round midnight - 2 sets as ever - one 8:30ish - the other 10:30ish...
about to pack down my lovely red keyboard for the trip over to the soundcheck...
half of my brain is also on editing a video that is part of my application to Nordoff Robbins Master in Music Therapy that i'm getting ready... videos that i filmed earlier this afternoon before going out to do my dusk project...
i did it yesterday as planned but i was a few minutes late due to hungover slow walking - so now i have the choice of either today's footage or yesterdays when i get to the other end...
very old friend JF rang me to say he was going to an exhibition in Peckham - being what where i live these days...
i left here on foot (bicycle out of action for too long now - slaps own wrist) dropped a shirt off to be pressed @ the dry cleaners - went down bellenden road to see JF & his new flatmate - whose exhibition it was/is... hmmm - can i link it?
Yes i can...
good stuff, documenting a housing estate in kidbrooke that's being demolished - photos of residents with a film & book...
then me & JF walked over to the NC for the dusk project - the 1st time i've had anyone with me - really nice to be with JF who's round the corner (ish) these days so will hopefully see more of him (he came to last week's gig in brixton that i didn't tell you about)...
and also really nice to be able to show him Nunhead Cemetery - it's right up his kettle of fish...
directed him roughly westward & he cycled off as i walked home - stopping by the dry cleaers to pick up the shirt...
one more tea & then i'm outward bound x
