Decent Pie's Thought-Blog

Born too late pre-punk rockers. Trouble with authority, and a yearning for Rigorous Intuition.

Grumpy old git suffering with an acute case of 'The ever Popular Tortured Artist Effect' Who has no particular wish to sell you his music... no, that's ok, go off and buy another Britney album, and DON'T check out any of the fantastic, ecclectic, cornucopia that is: Decent Pie Just DON'T bother... you wouldn't like it. Too much would never be enough, just LEAVE it and go back to Robbie Williams ffs! Or it'll all end in a crying song. [as me ol' dad used to say]

So I was just trawling around and found some evidence of organisation, and subsequently a wilful urge to share some hard information.

Ginger:

Fri 1st May Newport, TJ's
Sat 2nd May York, Fibbers
Sun 3rd May Dudley, JB's
Mon 4th May Manchester, Ruby Lounge
Tue 5th May Sheffield, Corporation
Wed 6th May Nottingham, Seven
Thur 7th May London, O2 Academy
Sun 10th May Leeds, Rio's
Mon 11th May Newcastle, Academy

I ain't got time to make 'em all active links... so you'll jus hav 2 google the venues yourselves.

Also...

Leppard:

Fri 12th June 2009 Dublin O2
Sun 14th June 2009 The Download Festival


I. E. the venue in Dublin isn't "like the O2 of Dublin..." it IS The O2 Arena, Dublin.

Ginger Leppard

Hey rollers,

I have confirmed some dates... [ish]

I am now DEFFO out on a small UK Tour during the first two weeks of MAY this year with GINGER.
[see previous posts]

I don't have venue details as yet, or know what the band will be billed as, or know exactly how many gigs there are, or on which exact dates!

I DO know that the line up will be Ginger, Big Jase, Denzil, and Eddie Eyeball, [along with yours truly] and I have seen a tentative set-list, which has me singing a lead vox or two, and features some GREAT songs from the Gee man and the Wildhearts both.
Much fun and unnecessary segue-ing is anticipated by all. We are busy learning parts, and will pull it all together in a couple of days rehearsal nearer the gigs.

ALSO...

Joe Elliott and Co. have been back in touch, and further to my studio stuff on the new album last year, I am gonna do the guest number, and play "Love and Hate" LIVE with LEPPARD on a couple of dates in June.

The first is the new arena in Dublin. [I haven't been yet but J.E. sez it's proper smart, and "like an Irish O2"] There's a couple of thousand seated just in the balcony apparently, so It sounds quite plush.
The second, a few days later is what used to be called simply 'Donnington' when I were a lad... It's called The Download Festival now of course.
[which I've never done either, so that will be nice!]

Good ol' Lepps. I luvvem. Brothers to a man and PROPER old school talented.


I promise to post the actual dates and venues when I have them.

Stay healthy and happy till then if you can.
