An Enormous Honorary Member

I’m playing a gig with Enormous on November 20th so I’ve been in contact with Davy Lawerence (lead singer/song writer) over the past couple of days sorting out rehearsals, dots, mp3’s etc.

I’ve been listening to some of the new tracks this morning and they’re awesome. I’m a big fan of “The Way It Should Be” and “Pretty Little Painkiller”. I’ve also got a soft spot for “Moaning Lisa” which is Davy’s one a minute wonder. Probably because it’s 25% trumpet solo :P. I’m looking forward to meeting the guys that have been on my iTunes since before my first mp3 player (who else remembers CD’s and mini-discs?).

It’ll be nice to see and play with Paul Varga (Sax) as I haven’t properly played with him since the days Soul Burners. A soul band I played with when I was 16 but they all thought I was 20. It’s a long story but it was basically so I would be taken seriously as my playing age was higher than my actual age. Plus playing soul gigs in bars and clubs till 2 am isn’t really ideal for a kid who’s working on his GCSE’s.

I’m covering the gig for Ashley Morgan (the regular Trumpet) as he can’t make it. It’s cool but it’d be nice one day to actually play with him as I’ve known him as a trumpeter for 10 years now but we’ve never played together.

So per Davy’s Email I am now an Honory Member Of Enormous. I assume that now means I will get a cut of past and future royalties. Thanks Guys!! 😀

I’ll be reheasing with them this Saturday.
