It’s early morning as I write from Spain, the morning after the night before. The night before was a long one, an enjoyable one with far too much alcohol involved. It was just me and the old man eating, talking and drinking of course and ending up in places one should never really go to especially with your father but alas such is life and so be it!

I am writing because there has been a lack of correspondence of late and the old man got his knickers in a twist about it! ‘I went on your website and there’s nothing happening! What the fuck are you doing’? Etc. etc. Well, he has a point I can see. Of late I have been keeping a low profile really, not many gigs, if I did I didn’t announce them, not putting out new material or communicating with those of you who come to the shows and buy the records etc. Well all apologies, as the man said!

So this morning in the glorious sunshinnnne (pity about the Oasis split really) in Espania I wanted to let you in on what I have been up to. Well there is good news and then there’s some more good news. I have been writing and then I have been writing some more and after that I did some writing and low and behold I believe there is a new record on the horizon (why do I think of U2 when I say that word?). I have lots of material now to choose from and a record is taking shape in my head. I’m excited, very excited. There will also be some shows (to be announced in the coming weeks) this side of Christmas, at least one in Dublin and more around Ireland with our sights set on London at some point. There will be a new look website too, eventually (early days!) and a very busy touring schedule for 2010 along with a yes, a wedding to boot! I am delighted to say to you dear friends that I was recently engaged to my beautiful girlfriend of 5 or so years Susan Kelly! And while I am on the subject Sue has been working very closely with me on the music and will play a very prominent role on the album nuevo along with the upcoming live shows!

All in all, there is plenty in store and then some more with new songs being written and recorded, new videos being made, new tour dates being booked and a new album coming soon.  I will endeavour to keep in touch much more and promise an airing of some new material this side of Christmas and maybe a even a gift for those who have beed good! But you have to be good!!
But if you want to hear more you should come to a gig where we will be taking new songs for a test drive!

Until the next time…

Adios amigos!!
