another point of view…

UPDATE!
Posted on October 21, 2007 | No CommentsI appreciate that is has been a long while since anything has been posted on this blog. There is a good(ish) reason for this in that we’ve been throwing all our effort/time/soul into making sure that everything is in place for DELIRIUM. Of course that’s... -

Iron
Posted on April 27, 2007 | No Commentsthings are going well with How much is your Iron?. The website says it’s sold out, but I think that it’s possible to get returns. The reviews so far have been great. It’s an intriguing piece and amazing to think that Brecht wrote it in... -
Rostropovich RIP
Posted on April 27, 2007 | No CommentsSad to see that Mstislav Rostropovich has died. An amazing musician and an incredible character. 10 years ago I spent a few days with him and his spirit was amazing, as was his playing, as were the spirits that we knocked back! This was in... -

That side... -
