Part one of the catch-up here, this was recorded on Wednesday 24th May but uploaded Sunday 27th May. In this episode I'm very aware of the fact that I've done this podcast for 60 days (roughly), and in 60 day's time (roughly) I'm turning 29. So with that I'm considering this as something of a halfway point, which feels like a perfect time to look back on what has been achieved, what I have yet to do, and how I can continue to avoid having any more "nothing days". Basically it's me going on a 30 minute rant. And where better to record an episode like that than at the kitchen sink. And then I play some very amateur piano. Thanks for listening.

Today's episode was recorded at someone else's open mic night for once! It was held at The Steam Passage in Angel, and it was hosted by one of my guests on this episode: Frosty. I only found out about this night by talking to one of the acts from the last episode - Across The Sea - and in particular the person partly responsible for bringing them to London: Ivan Roberts. These two folks tell us about how they came to be part of the London music scene in their own way, and - more importantly - why. You can find out more about them at the following: Ivan -- https://www.facebook.com/groups/rifftaffgroup -- Frosty -- https://en-gb.facebook.com/sptopenmic/ --  Thanks for listening.

Today's episode is coming from The Plough in Holborn. I finally got back to talking to people that perform at the open mics, and this time it was mostly new faces. You will hear me talking to:Chris Afrix: https://soundcloud.com/chrisafrixSully Gravity: https://soundcloud.com/sullygravityAnton Charr: https://antonchirovsky.bandcamp.com/James: https://theponycollaboration.bandcamp.com/Hannah Lewis and Pete Ferguson: https://acrosstheseauk.bandcamp.com/My arm is still aching slightly from drumming along with Across The Sea on the cajon, and yet I kinda want to do it again.
