What a strange little time I’m having at the moment. Slowly bringing together the bits and pieces of my album release (and calendar, which is a really stupid but awesome thing that I’m going to be announcing properly soon). It’s a lot of emailing back and forth with a lot of people, a lot of photoshopping and a lot of, to be honest, pretty boring shit. But it’ll be worth it when I can give it to you early next year in exchange for your coins.

The roadcase I talked about a few posts ago finally came, along with a whole stack of new equipment, and it’s beautiful. I’m really excited to get into reworking the show; I’m going to be spending some time on it over December, hopefully I can get something fresh together for the new year, but I suspect it will be a longer process. I’m actually really enjoying my current setup at the moment anyway so I’ll be happy to play around a bit more on that. It’s fair to say that what I’m putting together is going to really take the live show to the next level though.

Absolutely dying to get out on tour at the moment. Tomorrow night I play Fremantle Town Hall for the Big Swingin’ Ball as part of Fremantle Festival. The Town Hall is a one of those fantastic big old rooms that’s going to be a fucking blast to desecrate with my antics. It’s an unusual bill for me too, which always means things will be a bit more interesting; it’s pretty much a guarantee that there will be a fresh batch of punters that won’t have seen me before along with the (always welcome) veterans.

While I’m writing, can I draw your ears to the Naik remix of I Feel Dirty? I love it and I think you should download it if you haven’t already. It makes my shitty car stereo sound AWESOME.
