Plans for 2009.

Well, I thought it should be about time so here we go a-blogging…..I’ve got a new band who are almost formed including Emma Burgess on keyboards/ backing vocals and Simon Taylor on Bass. We have someone who can, and may well play drums for us but the person in question also has commitments with another band so we’re still considering percussionists. We’re pretty open-minded by the way so if you just have a snare and a pair of razor-fish shells to play it with (& you’re good!), we’ll still bear you in mind.

Drummers with conventional kits are OK too!

I’m still gonna book the odd solo gig as well so stay tuned. Enjoy the snow, J xxx

Oxjam nearly Undone!

After an almost disastrous problem caused a last minute change of venue(!), due it seems to sheer incompetence on behalf of Congleton Borough Council. Oxjam quickly relocated to the meeting rooms at The Wheatsheaf, Sandbach.

Dayve Dean débuted his new, as yet un-named but already tight, accomplished-sounding band and managed to take some photos of me between sets!

Set (as far as I can remember...)
