13 Years since I Broke Out (🎶March’s Monthly Notes)

And what a ride it has been. What started off as a ‘2 year experiment’ has now been a 13 year wild ride. Whilst I’d…

Eek – slow down year!! (🎶February’s Monthly Notes)
Read the note →: Eek – slow down year!! (🎶February’s Monthly Notes)Where on earth have the last 2 months gone?

And we’re off: One month Down (🎶January’s Monthly Notes)
Read the note →: And we’re off: One month Down (🎶January’s Monthly Notes)So 2026 is off and running. And my #1 goal for the year – playing a lot more LIVE, has NOT got off to a good start.

Burn….Out (🎶August’s Monthly Notes)
Read the note →: Burn….Out (🎶August’s Monthly Notes)So, I am back having survived another Burning Man, and with another Burn (as in 2023) seemingly impacted by greater weather variability. We got hit by 3 major weather events in 4 days and spent most of that time rebuilding the camp and dance area after each one! Still, we survived and Camp Gecko became…
