Off to the Brecon Beacons…near Abergavenny…for four days – for the Green Man Festival. Won the tickets after all…might as well try and go to the thing. It’s an experience! Anyway…I think my time away will have me cut off from the Internet – for the most part – so things will be quiet here…
A great location for an outdoor venue…right in the heart of the city centre. It was one of the main reasons I chose to go to Leeds when tossing up which of these Grandslam gigs to go to back in the early spring. Leeds would be fairly cheap and hassle free for me to get…

Some extra footage from the gig last night at the Old Court, Windsor…
