Fran mentions meeting LG in his blog.
Saturday 21st June
Met Andy and Neil at 11ish and we hopped in a cab to John Henrys Rehearsal studios. John Henrys is on Brewery Road in London. It’s been a rehearsal studio since as long as I can remember and is used by everyone. In our time there we’ve seen everyone from Oasis to Shirley Bassey, Razorlight to Sugababes, Coldplay to Madness rehearse in the other rooms. It’s a cool place. The rooms are sound proofed and have a very basic set up. We have written there (Battleships, Eyes Wide Open) and done full production rehearsals there for many tours.
On the agenda today was the set list running order and getting some vital instrumentation from New York to London. We thought we’d have to Fed Ex all the info over but iChat came to the rescue and we had everything 2 hours after the initial call to Emery. He’s a genius. With all these wee bits now in place, the new stuff was sounding pristine.
The set list for the shows was set and we ran through it. All sounding great, we departed. Andy and I spent the evening eating sushi and drinking in Camden. I haven’t done the Camden thing for years. We had fun. We met --some nice folk. Drank and were merry. We staggered home, briefly popping into the Barfly where we bumped into Vanisha from the messageboard. We didn’t stay long though. Bed was calling.
