Like I said, I’m trying to get Omid to come over to here from the dark side. Give the quoted post below a like if you think he should and a repost if you REALLY think he should. I have been banging on about the incredible amount of engagement you get on here. I’m gonna look like an idiot aren’t I?

I'm lucky enough to be doing a gig with this guy on the 28th of May 2025 at The Old Woollen in Leeds. Tickets: www.seetickets.com/event/antoni... We'll be playing some songs together. I might make him play one or two on his own. Seriously check this out. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLLW...

I wish we had a few more technical people here. Maybe I just follow my favourite authors etc. Need more nerdy /maker stuff.
