I&#8217;m a big fan of &#8220;The Way It Should Be&#8221; and &#8220;Pretty Little Painkiller&#8221;. I&#8217;ve also got a soft spot for &#8220;Moaning Lisa&#8221; which is Davy&#8217;s one a minute wonder. Probably because it&#8217;s 25% trumpet solo :P. I&#8217;m looking forward to meeting the guys that have been on my iTunes since before my first mp3 player (who else remembers CD&#8217;s and mini-discs?).<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;ll be nice to see and play with Paul Varga (Sax) as I haven&#8217;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&#8217;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&#8217;t really ideal for a kid who&#8217;s working on his GCSE&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m covering the gig for <a href=\"http:\/\/brassrevolver.com\/\">Ashley Morgan<\/a> (the regular Trumpet) as he can&#8217;t make it. It&#8217;s cool but it&#8217;d be nice one day to actually play with him as I&#8217;ve known him as a trumpeter for 10 years now but we&#8217;ve never played together.<\/p>\n<p>So per Davy&#8217;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.
