Ah, many thanks Mikey. Some how, I've been on this forum 2 years but I forgot there was a gig page.
So here we are.  I'm excited to report that I have 4 upcoming events this year. These are all in the way of supporting other artists, and though I'm billed as Tiger Moth Tales for these performances, they will be just myself, with piano, acoustic guitar and one or two tricks up my sleeve.

So off we go.
On October 24th I'm playing keyboards for the CKDCF event. This means I will get  to accompany such legends as Francis Dunnery and Robert Plant. Our beloved John Mitchell will also be doing a couple there, but I don't think he needs a keyboard player sadly. :) I'll also get to take the stage solo and do a couple of TMT tracks.
Sadly this event is now sold out what with it being a Dunnery gig :) but I mention it as I'm rather chuffed about it and it's pretty darned cool.

Attention them up north for this one. On November 14th I'll be supporting Mr Davy O List! Formerly of The Nice, and with a brand new fantastic solo album out. He's doing a few shows and I'm lucky enough to be part of one of them at the Wesley Centre in Maltby Rotherham.
I'm also very happy because it's a bit nearer for me and for a lot of my friends in the South Yorkshire area who haven't been able to make it to my other support gigs. So if your in that area or even if your not, you can get tickets and info from the CRS site as they're running the event.

That's pretty cool too. :)

Then I'm with the wonderful Lifesigns on December 6th at the zephyr Lounge in Leamington. A great honour, and after having heard clips from their live DVD I can't wait to hear them do their thing. See the link below if you like the sound of that one.

And the last one, a corking prog treble bill in bonney Scottland. Tiger Moth Tales and We Are Kin have the privilage to be supporting Abel Ganz in their home town at the CCA in Glasgow. This should be a fantastic night and just before Christmas on the 18th of December. Really excited about this one. Tickets for that one are available here:

So Frost*ies, if you fancy seeing the Moth do his thang, and then watching a decent band as well, these gigs may be of interest to you. Plus it would be fab to meet some of you at last as I am very fond of you all and I'll always remember your kind words when I first tentitively mentioned that Cocoon thing. :)

For those who have enquired about the possibility of TMT going out as a full band, ... I have nothing concrete to tell you at this point. :) But I do have some pretty awsome plans for next year and I intend to do at least a handful of gigs with a full band. My friends from Red Bazar are keen to be involved and we are going to make a big racket/noise sometime next year. More than that, I can't commit to at this point.

If you're straining your eyes reading all this, please feel fre to have a cuppa and come back to it later. Or you can visit the TMT website which has all the details.

Finally, if you can't make any of these great gigs for some rubbish reason like you live at the other side of the world ;) or if you're thinking about coming to see TMT but aren't sure what you're going to get, take a look at this:

This is the official bootleg from the Borderline performance when I supported the magnificent Magenta. You can stream a couple of tracks, or if you want to you can purchase the whole thing as a download for the princely sum of £3.50. :) If you do that, many thanks.
Ok, that's more than enough for now, but I do hope to meet some of you before the year is out. :)

I thought I'd posted about it here mate, though we did decide to put it out in something of a hurry and what with that and the fact I post these days in about a dozen different pages / forums, it's possible I didn't post it here. If so, my sincere alopogies. I just got an email notification from bandcamp? Was that you sir, if so thanks very much. :)

It might have been  ;D
I have also known to very blind sometimes (no mickey take intended)

'Tis excellent, though ruined by the incessant number of phone calls I've had since downloading it.

If I upload it will my phone stop ringing?

Lol probably not. It's a shame we couldn't include the covers I did on the night as that was 10 minutes extra material and included More Fool Me which I have an ever growing fondness for.  Ah well, who knows, when I get megger famous maybe one day the whole gig will get mysteriously leeked on to the net and be a much sort after bootlet as the first ever entire TMT gig. Lol

Wow, Frosties please check this out!

DON@T MISS! :)

Hi there Frosties. Rather excited now and slightly panicky as I prepare to start for Cumbria first thing tomorrow. I'm excited not least because I'll be accompanying our very own Mr Mitchell on keyboard for a song. Can't wait for that.  I just wanted to thank all those who donated to my Just Giving page for the CKDCF. I'm not far off my target, so if anybody stil wants to donate you can do so here:

Thanks again, and now I must rush off and do a bit of last minute rehearsing. I can't let Mr Plant and Mr Dunnery down. V V exciting and all for an excellent cause. Hope to bump in to some of you there. :)

Mikey

Ha-ha mothman
My page wins  :) :) :)

Good luck with the gigs, hope to be at Maltby.

Just need to negotiate a pass out past the rottweiller :)

Hi folks. THis is a bit late, but thought I'd post some vids and sound clips from the CKDCF show, shere I got to play with Francis Dunnery, the wonderful Robert Plant, and most importantly I got to meet and accompany our wondreful John Mitchell. Had a good chat with John and what a nice and jolly funny bloke he is. Had me in stitches a time or two. Ok, here goes. Most of these predictably are from Mr Plant's set as thats the bits people seem to have filmed. I don't know if there were any Frost*ies there, but if you were this will bring back memmories.
