One of the most miserable aspects of social networking is accidentally bearing witness to a limbo lover’s come on to another, using hopeless prog rock allegory to vivify intent. There really is nowhere to hide in the info age. Nevertheless, more pressing matters loom and I will endeavour to Wildely fix my gaze above and beyond. He did actually post my music, b4 his own gaze was so poetically circumvented, and for that I’m grateful. Maybe we can be friends after all….

Remember remember the 6th o November….
TALKIN RIVER TYNE MUSICAL REVS redefined all notions of ‘symposium’ at the Star & Shadow in Newcastle, Friday night. Gavin Martin presented a right laugh & sing-along to site specific superstars The Animals, Lindisfarne, Roxy Music, Angelic Upstarts, even Sting – a raucous good multi-media extravaganza! Didn’t realise how much I resemble Bryan Ferry til I mascara’d my tache on.
Twas queen for a night 2 as honorary 6th member to BAND OF HOLY JOY hot on heels. Johny Brown & musical cohorts blazed a starry trail on to the stage and Inga Tillere set the cinema alight – Wow!
Shooting stars - Band of Holy Joy - Moi in attendance
Whew!
What Holy Joy!
BoHJ!
Inga Tillere's magical snow
Got good reason to smile here
