So it's come around again, and slipped away again. Half-way through January and can't even remember if there was a fuss to wonder about.

Updating a few things on the website (new improved video archives, the germ of a photo gallery, etc) but still not planning to blog more than once a month. So I'll miss the social media boom - go ahead and shoot me now.

Rehearsing for a little gig at Tamworth (City Arcade, 1-2pm, 21st January) during which I'll go through a few songs from the new album, but more importantly it'll be a prototype of the new Red in the Centre travelling roadshow. At last, a shape to the thing!

Couldn't get mainstream free-to-air television interested in anything this time around, which is not really surprising but still a pain in the arse. And not even sure if I'll have Australia Network behind me this trip, so it looks like it's come down to the place I always though it would: me, flying solo. But at least I can create now as I choose to create, no restraints beyond the limitations of my own imagination. So let's go!

See you down the road aways.
