Under two weeks to go, now!

Went to see support act "Son of Kirk" last night, as they've just had a lineup change. Although they also feature a violinist and even a bit of tapping on the guitar, they make a good contrast to Katriona and Jamie. They berated me a bit for callng them a "local" band in publicity as members hail from Australia, Wales and the Midlands and just happen to live around here :-).

Sorted out the sound, the lighting, the seating, the stage construction requirements, merch stands and bar and got a daughter and a friend organised as "gophers" to help on the night. Dealing with the Stag as a venue is quite "special". They're lovely people and really want to help but their systems/ admin seem to lag behind their enthusiasm a bit :-)
