One man and his barcode

Apologies I've not written in, well, over a month now. That's a bad Andy. In the last month we finally finished mixing and mastering the EP which will now be out on the 3rd November. The artwork had a few hitches but that's all been sorted out now and there were other things that needed attention like the barcode. It's now sorted both physically and it's 13 digit number. Clearly this is pretty boring stuff but you'd be amazed how happy I was when I saw MY barcode for MY record that I've done myself. Go team 'Me'. I also needed some other codes to do with me getting royalties whenever I gets played on radio, had to do all the promo CD's, press releases, sorting this website out blah yada blah yada blah. As you can see, it's all fun an games at the moment.

I've finished booking the October tour so you can find out about there I'm playing in the 'Gigs' bit over there -------------->
Totally unrelated I found this photo the other day. My mate Dale took this photo of me when leathered in some odd pub playing darts the day we did the group vocals in Nottingham. Dale doesn't play darts, he plays "let's leather to dart as hard as I can at the wall and see how long it takes me to pick it out after my shot". I'm playing air bass to 'Alone' by Heart which was on the jukebox at the time. I'm wearing Dave's much loved Leeds festival hat. It's gorgeous innit.

New songs for the album are coming along but I'm struggling with time, which is irritating to say the least. What I am writing is going really well and I'm gonna make a brilliant album, I think. I hope. I will! Hopefully.
