Lindsay - keep hearing your name around & can't believe we've not met somewhere. I've just listened to your music for the first time and liking it! I run acoustic nights ( I know Anthea, Mike Upjohn, Phil Daniels, Susie etc...) & have a space at my Acoustic Showcase I could give you at the Fox & Pelican, Grayshott on 22nd July if it was of interest? Sorry I missed your set at Guilfest. Let me know or maybe another time....
Well, I think the important thing is that you get to play in front of people a lot (thats always nice) plus all the other advantages.
Anyway, concerning summer, well if everything goes well, I will be in Germany from the 16th until the 20th of July and then: Kowel-Ukraine, Paris-France(hopefully) and last but not least Santona-Spain, combining teaching, volunteering and having fun.
Damn, I wish I could make it to one of your shows.
