I heart Gruff Rys

[Herr Tubthumper]

I'm liking his Hotel Shampoo project.

Scroll down the "Gruffington Post" and have a read.

Have you see his Separado! documentary? Looks great but haven't had a chance to catch it yet.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Great innit! Shame his tour is taking in such small venues, Toynbee studios only holds 250. Must catch him (or preferably SFA) live again next year, it's been a while (since we had reason left to smile).

No, it was showing at the Dukes on my wedding day. It's on my Xmas list though.

And mine!

It is. I have nothing but total admiration for the guy and his music. Shame he's not coming to Brighton as well. I'm tempted to email him and put a gig on myself (I'm serious about this).

He's been pretty busy recently, what with Neon Neon, SFA, DangerMouse/Sparklehourse and Plastic Beach plus two solo albums a documentary and building a hotel.

Funny you should post this, as I was going through my e-mails and came accross the Gruffington Post one - was also going to put it on here.

Sounds really good. Agree with Chappers, it's a shame about the venue sizes.

I have a fire in my heart for Gruff.

Though I'm falling apart
Still I've got a fire in my heart for you

 

[CHAPPERS]

You'd almost certainly sell out a decent size venue if Gruff came to town, big following down here.

..a moment of madness. I'm going to email his agent. The fact his preference is really small venues could work for us.

If and when I get married, I want this as a first dance.

 

[Franks Wild Years]

Excellent stuff.

You may be interested in this guy. He did a residency at Mrs Wildy Ears's place and I went to his talk the other night. Top electronica, art, silliness.

Nice choice. You might notice I have some of his lovely lyrics as my NSC signature. They're from Inaugural Trams which was played at my wedding breakfast.

Could suit the Hanbury?

Could suit the Hanbury?

Good call. I'm going to drop that Shoreham Moonrake fella a line...he knows a thing or two about putting on gigs.

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

I'm in. It would be aces if this could come off.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

I've dropped SM a line, I'll keep you all advised. This could be a fun adventure.

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

Great stuff. Let me know if anything needs doing.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Me too, will happily help out.

count me in for a ticket!
