my life as a artist


suddenly nothing happened

Apologies faithful blog-readers for this weeks scant offerings… spent Wednesday and Thursday preparing for Friday's solo gig at the Winning Post. There's more pressure at a home gig. People have heard my stuff many times and I felt obliged to work in some new material.

I often think about keeping the same set and going out as a Rory Motion tribute act. I did once go out on a million Glastonbury Festival fliers as 'Ron Notion'… it's got a certain ring to it.

On Saturday morning the mighty Corinthians had a game against Tim United on an all-weather pitch in Acomb. It was absolutely dismal. The wind was howling and we were completely outplayed and lost 6-1. I'd used so much nervous energy at the gig that for the first 45 minutes I bumbled around the pitch uselessly. In the second half I found a duvet and snuggled down in the centre circle with a mug of Barleycup.

This morning the mighty Corinthians had a game against Tollerton on a traditional grass pitch at the Sim Balk Lane Stadium. A higher than expected crowd of two witnessed a 1-0 victory for the Corinthians, in extremely trying conditions. The wind was stronger than Saturday and a good few degrees colder. My face felt slapped.

I was wearing gloves. Brian asked if I had a spare pair but I could only find an odd one, so he wore that. He looked a bit like Alvin Stardust, but with less kunkachoo. We were a man short so they lent us one called Martin.and he scored the winning goal. It had to be.

So that's what I've been doing…. And now I'm going to watch 'the trap', a documentary on Channel four about how the government is always doing bad things……could be true.
