Sorry to hear about the cancellation on Oct 5th, but "c'est la vie" as they say. We do appreciate the curteous and advanced notice for sure.

As if we have the luxury to make demands on our favorite musicians, but here is a try at least: Please please please can you try to fit in a show between Dec 21 and Jan 2????

Best,

P.S. Love the CG downloads on myspace by the way :)

Thanks very much. We do try to be courteous and advanced. It's in the mission statement.

Between December 21st and Jan 2's going to be difficult. The accordion-player with CG won't be back from the UK and Ireland until Christmas Eve and who knows what the family men (which would be all of us) will be up to with their kids Christmas week. I'll see what I can do, but not promising anything.

Cranky George is also doing a show at Molley Malone's on Oct. 30.

Thanks James for your quick reply! I hope everything is right with you.
Good lucky with your next shows.

Have a lot of health, peace and inspiration.

Yes, sorry, the October 5th show has been cancelled - but only due to unforeseen circumstances. We're trying to figure out with Molly's how to get a replacement show sometime in October. I'll let you know, as soon as I know. But for definite, the 30th is going ahead.

Hi James! I hope you and yours are OK.

I've just heard about your show on the 5th Oct was cancelled! Is it true? Is all right with you guys? I wish you the best.

Cheers

I'm so excited to see that CG and the Pogues will be in LA in October. And we will be seeing the Pogues in Seattle on the 17th. Looks like the first show sold out here and they have added another show. October looks to be a winner, three shows in one month for me.

Diana in Seattle

Lullaby of London sounded really different but very cool by the way

No, it's the kids I'm bothered about, my kids, plying the neighbourhood with their pumpkin buckets, and me, just, well, languoring backstage waiting for something to happen.

The accordion? Couldn't bring Accordion #1 with me because of luggage constraints (the summer hols and all), so Accordion #2 had to be brought out of storage. Two wires inside broke from a bellows-stretch and rendered the thing public-address-systemly silent. It's very hard indeed playing accordion parts (I even had to lean over to approach the piano keyboard at an angle approximating that at which I approach the accordion) on the piano, with the heavy keys moving escapement machinery (well, designed that way on account of it being an electric piano), but my years of copying Rick Wakeman kicked in and it was just a matter of a crick in the neck and sore forearms afterwards.

So, I would have used the promontory at Lokerse (Lokere?) a bit more, only I'd of haved to drug the piano with me.

Yeah, sometimes I'm used to go to Guarujá, but I prefer Ubatuba (north coast of São Paulo), it is farther than Guarujá, but there are more options of beaches, with less pollution and cheaper.
Now, with our hot "winter" the problems are the water and the wind, it is toooooo cold there. I was there 3 weeks ago.
cheers

Isa, do you go to the beach in summer? Guaruja? That helps!

Thanks for the answer James!

Hey, your experiences weren't too bad, they could be worst (Murph's law )! After all, they are a part of the show!

Don't worry about Halloween day, it won't be problem, you will see. First because The pogues fans have a GREAT POSITIVE ENERGY, and second, it can't be a bad day, because after all someone like Dermot was born in this day.

Only to you know, if you think LA is hot, think with me, you are in summer yet. Imagine us here in São Paulo (Brazil) in the "winter" where today the thermometer marks 36ºC. Can you imagine how will be our Summer? We will melt like icecream.

Have a lot of health, peace and inspiration
