A Bit Of Self Promotion

[garrysmith]

I've just put a new tune, "Outbound to Wonderland" up on my Myspace page,

Also, on Weds Feb17th, I have secured a support spot at "What' Cookin' ", just about one of the best Blues/Country/Americana gigs in London. I believe they occasionally book some bloke called Messer.
This is at "The Sheepwalk", Leytonstone High Road. I is well'appy.

What's Cookin' is a fantastic club for Americana, Country & Blues. It is one of my favourite London gigs. Highly recommended!

Your new D6 track sounds very nice.

Shine On
Michael.

Hi Garry,

Very nice, great playing, nothing wrong with a bit of self promotion! Do you have a recording of 'The Dog and the Banker' anywhere?

Regards

HI Garry
Great to meet you at the festival, such great slide playing and I admired your vast repertoire of different styles of music. The 'Outbound to Wonderland ' song did you play this in you open mic set , as I think you made some mention of it being a dog track or something you saw when over in the States.

I would like to listen to it on your Myspace but am unable to until I can fork out to up grade to a newer system on my Mac;

All the best with your gigging

Regards

Growler

I did do "Outbound to Wonderland" at the open mic. I just took the title from a trackside sign I saw on the Boston tube system (The T). Just thought it was a very cool and evocative turn of phrase.

I know I discussed the IGS slide forum with a couple of people. It's worth going over there (foil hats not required) to see the reaction the title has stirred up. Dear, dear Knuckle! He has had a troubled life.

"The Dog and the Banker" my Tolpuddle Martyrs inspired song, and my attempt to intergrate slide guitar and English Folk Music is not yet recorded. I'm saving it for the album I intend to get out in the coming year.
