old post

I was bring driven around a lot and I wrote this post a few days ago, so I'm posting it now, even if it's out of date.

On July 12th I played a show at the larmer tree festival and I asked my friend Joey and her boyfriend Thomas to join me for a few songs. With joey I used to perform as a duet called treacles, but we hadn't been onstage together in 6 years. At larmer tree we did two of our old songs and a cover of these arms of mine. It rained a lot and I learned a new game called puckit and spoke a lot to an American girl called Prometheus.  Here is a link to a Treacles song:

Then I took the bus back to Paris. I was sat next to a Japanese girl in the disabled seats do I had lots of legroom. I couldn't sleep though. Having travelled all night I got home at 8am and then had to wake up at 12 for my soundcheck at archikult festival. They had unlimited redbull and cake, so I filled myself up. A friend from brazil came and I got him some free beer. After the show a pretty girl from Portugal came and spoke to me. She was wearing a pleated top, white tights and a cardigan with hearts on it, and she had hair like Thelma from scooby doo. 

After the concert I went home and had a nap and then went to the divan du monde, where I played my first Paris concert almost 5 years ago. I spent a few hours in the garden smoking cigarettes and recognising people I hadn't seen in years. Among those people was Diego - a young Argentinian I had helped find a concert when he first arrived in Paris. We chatted about how music is hard and he invited me to play with him at The Pop In the next day - a bar in Paris that I like.

My friend Tom arrived from England and came to meet me direct at The Pop In. During the concert I played some of my toy piano concerto ideas for the concert at chatelet. Drinks were free but I was tired so I drank a lot of cola. 

During the evening I received an SMS to invite me to play an apartment show on Tuesday. I went with Thom and discovered 3 things that I liked: pizza (I relike it), the music of ... And the Yamaha vss-30 (I was reminded that i like it). 

The next day, I travelled a few hours in the train to the south of France to the place where I recorded an album last year. I went to a rundown waterpark - the kind of place where the slides cut in to you like Parma ham.  Here is a photo of a little park inside that waterpark:

On Saturday I will play a show here in a farmhouse. Weird thing is seeing posters of myself in the middle of nowhere. Like this:

In two weeks I'm going to America.

That is all.
