Catch-up

Well, I've been doing this for nearly a year now. So how far have I got?

I've been rebuilding my studio for several months now, and that has inevitably slowed things down. However, I've got versions of several songs now, mostly just the music. I've completed the music for 'I Keep the One I Love in the Freezer' so as soon as I've done the vocals I'll post it. Even though it's rather sick. Actually I do quite like it. I was just winding up Graham.

I've posted two pieces of music on www.fournotes.co.uk. I'd hoped to do a few more than that, but never mind.

I'm back in touch with Jen and Graham. I'm hoping to persuade them to come and see the Twelfth Night reunion gig. See www.twelfthnight.info/news.php. Me, Graham and Jen - it would be the first time all together since the band split up.

Finally, partially inspired by Twelfth Night I have to admit, I've written the lyrics of a new song which I only want 'The Empty Vessel' to do. It's called 'Humanisation' and it calls for a prog epic. Anyone up for a reunion?

A lead

A Polish friend of mine (no, he's not a builder, don't stereotype) told me about a band he went to see a few years ago. Apparently, they had a rather peculiar but excellent guitarist. The singer gave the guitarist's name as Zenon. You can see where this is going.

Now, I'm sure there are loads of guitarists in Poland called Zenon, or who have other names beginning with Z. How many of them, however, do a cover version of the Empty Vessel song 'A World Of My Own'?
