Global Gathering 2007

Many thanks to the lovely people at MySpace UK for inviting me onto the travelling madhouse known as the MySpace Summer Daze Bus at Global Gathering.

Following a DJ set on Saturday afternoon, which went down well...



..it was back later that evening for some excellent sounds from ISSST and more lost hours than I care to remember.



God bless you, and all who sail in you....

After the torrential rain of last week, a crystal clear sunny afternoon, the view here is around the corner from where I work.

It's back to rain now, needless to say....

Monty's Mobile Dinner 23.07.07

Many thanks to Paul Monty Munford for a tremendous night on the tiles with an interesting crowd of Mobile Industry bods at the Develop conference.

The charming food was heavily outnumbered by liquid refreshments at Due South, Brighton, and when the mayhem subsided, slightly, it was all back to the Brighton Metropole Hotel for further mis-advertures.

If you want to find out more about Paul's excellent newsletter, worth it for the weekly intro alone, email paul.munford@playerx.com.

I was lucky enough to catch it in Stockholm last year, so blown away I kept the ticket!
