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.

CLXXXVI - Hoxton Bar & Kitchen, London - 28/03/2011

Hoxton Bar & Kitchen, London

Chris T-T & The Hoodrats

The Retrospective Soundtrack Players

We were dead chuffed to be playing this show with a couple of our favourite bands, and it was good fun. The venue was one of those bar back-rooms and was almost entirely empty when we started so I had to run outside with my acoustic and Plastic Jesus people in the face to draw them in. It actually worked kind of well and we've started doing it whenever we need to drum up interest at quiet gigs (all gigs).

Chris T-T was particularly great tonight, despite some technical hitches and not playing 'Drink Beer' (I didn't really want him to, there was just an awkward silence.) His band are actually pretty damn tight, and he played lots of stuff from Capital which is always good with me.

It took me approximately 9 hours to get home from London, but that's pretty much standard procedure.
