    He didn't ring Mick, he staggered back in after two hours looking like he had been wandering lost in the desert for a month

    Really looking forward to this, as are quite a few I hear which is brilliant. Been a long time since the Grumpy faithful got together, can't wait For those who have never been to a Grumpy shindig, it's just great tunes, all night, regardless of price. Carl will bring you everything you can think of, plus a great singing voice. Phil raises the bar in both stature and quality. Lenny is an all round good egg with more than a cracking tune or two, and Kev professionally fills in any kinks or dents in the proceedings. Most importantly, you guys bring the phwoarrrr. What's not to love!

    Happy birthday Lorraine

    Have to say I really enjoyed listening to that. Some songs were stronger than others but none were bobbins, far from it. Sounds like it would have been great to be there, fantastic atmosphere.

    Ian Darrington, founder and organiser of Wigan International Jazz Festival, delivered a talk for me at Wigan Museum on Friday. It was so interesting, and he played some of Mica's music which is great. You'll receive a warm Wigan welcome Mica!
