Ok, so it looks like I can add Drum Technician to my list of skills. Why? ‘Cos it seems I’m now the Cradle Of Filth’s drum tech! An interesting turn of events but a good direction to go in if I want to do more touring. I’m actually looking forward to going with my good friend Daniel who is luckly enough to be doing front-of-house and with make traveling far more fun. One of the most interesting things is that the first gig which is in Latvia which will be a first for me. Sound engineering has so far taken me to Northern Ireland, Belgium, France, Germany & Holland, soon to be added to the list are Switzerland, Latvia, Finland & Spain. Not too bad when I look back at it really.

So anyway, I’m currently away on holiday in a little hideaway in Cornwall called Coverack. It’s great to almost be forced to calm everything down. No internet, 4 TV channels and no shopping other than Lou’s who is well known for being expensive and unless you like weather proofs or dust gathering tat then you aren’t interested anyway. I also get the time to understand the concept of having a pint or 3 before your evening meal which unsurprisingly gets you drunk a whole lot quicker than drinking after a meal.
