Fish 2009 - A Drunk Man Stares at a Thistle

Dear FishHeads, Freaks, fans and the Company,

Well after a quiet few weeks suddenly I was assaulted by all manner of events.

I am writing this on a driech Scottish Sunday afternoon; wet, windy and grey.

The log fires are on earlier every day and the darkness is numbing.

Tonight in St Mary's church in Haddington I will be reading Edwin Muir's poem, "Horses" as part of the Saltire Event that is taking place throughout the day in East Lothian.…

Lyrics by ( legrand )

Self-Chosen

When all light is fading when all secrets die in pain

There`s no room to innovate, there`s no room to contemplate

On this debut, we will have a music that is quite original but definitely progressive, and which is also melodic, aforethought and with great dynamics. It is modeled from many musical clays,… Continue
