The Dawn Chorus / The Retrospective Soundtrack Players - Blogging all over the World

My name is Kyle. I am a happily failing indie/punk/folk/country/rock musician from Hampshire, UK. I have been singing and songwriting in The Dawn Chorus since 2005, and The Retrospective Soundtrack Players since 2010. I love these two bands like my brother/wife rolled into one. This blog details the shows I have played with both bands, in chronological order.

CLXXII - 2000 Trees Festival, Cheltenham - 17/07/10

Saturday 17th July 2010

2000 Trees Festival, Cheltenham (Leaf Lounge)

Again, simply one of the greatest DC shows, full stop. Both my acoustic and the 2nd electric went loopy but somehow it didn't matter. Paul had a wobble on keys, I forgot some words. I think we all had a wobble at one point or another actually. But the crowd seemed to love it - and it wasn't raining this year so they could have gone elsewhere. Plus, for the first time our friend Mr Frank Turner joined us on stage for a run through of 'Carnivalesque', and he nailed it after zero practice. I would happily play 2000 trees every on a Groundhog Day-esqe loop for the rest of my life.

Big thanks to FT, the Trees organisers and everone who came to see us, we hugely appreciated it and hope you enjoyed it too.

It was brilliant. Caught it quite by accident but you were marvellous. I heard ring of fire on the radio this evening and it made me dig out your album and play it (you did a cover of this, you must remember). Wondered what you were doing so looked on the internet and found the blog. Happy Christmas. X
