Sunday I took gingerly recovering from the previous day's trip. ot to The Donkey at about 3pm - luckily Big Neil was doing our sound and Neil the Cajon was joining Dan & I. It was our 1st leicester gig in ages.
The sound was awesome from the 1st number on so despite aches and tiredness we really got into it, starting with old safe songs, trying a couple of new ones and in the encore hitting them with some pop songs from the cabaret set. Slight gloom in the room later as Leicester City football team got relegated to effectively division 3. But overall we really enjoyed playing at The Donkey, probably our favourite venue in Leicester at the moment. Lots of old chums there too. Really satisfying gig largey due to the 2 Neils. Chloe the Singer was there too so could give her her copy of Songs for Dreamers.
Set 1 - Tequila, Snow & The Fire, Carousel, These Days, Long Day's Waiting, Sweet Thing, Call of the Wild,
Set 2 - Wish, Finally (1st time out with Dan), Bad Things for Love (Dan new song), Deja Blues, Matty Groves, When Will We Be Married, Alien Jellyfish Song -
encore medley - Seems Like You Just Don;t Care/Lost Highway/Hounddog/Whole Lot of Shakin/ I'm a Believer
Chilled in evening - Vikki Clayton had come to visit the Vizier - they were watching a kung fu DVD but it was a bit busy for me
