UnderCOVER in Movember

UnderCOVER in Movember
November 2011
Hellooo again!!

First of all, the news from the mailing list HQ is not good. People are dropping like flies! I feel it has something to do with the Spanish Bicyboatslide, which evidently was not everyone's cup of tea. Nonetheless, I will perservere for the stayers of the group (namely yourselves) in the hope that one day I might be able to reward you with somethink like...

30 Free Songs!

What?!

Well sort of.... Let me explain...

Several years ago, I decided to participate in Movember and proceeded to grow one of the most disappointing Mo's ever known to man. This is for three reasons:

(i) I can't grow a Mo

(ii) Whatever it is I CAN grow is of a fair colour, thus rendering it practically impossible to see.

(iii) I can't grow a Mo

After this humiliating 30-day period in the life and times of Renny Field, I vowed I would never again partake in Movember, and instead would donate to others more worthy of a contribution (ie people who can actually grow a Mo). Alas, it is not uncommon for decisions to undergo some sort of rethink along the way, and in this case the "rethink" hit me today in London when I was trying come up with some ingeneous ways to amuse myelf as the darkness sets in...

So, I've decided to give this Movember business another crack, for better or worse. But rather than just growing a Mo (or not growing one as the case may be), I've decided to post a new cover song each day on youtube so you can all follow my appauling lack of progress along the way:

I've played a lot of pub gigs over the past few years (and still do!), and in that time I've learned a whole bunch of cover songs, some of which have saved my life, some of which have nearly killed me. I thought I'd share with you 30 of my favourites in support of Movember. As usual, there will be a bit of a running commentary along the way, and maybe a few tales from the road... But let's face it it wouldn't be RF without the ramble would it.

You are welcome to make requests, but as I often say at my gigs - the chances of me knowing what you're talking about are not great. Thus the "taking" of the request does not always lead to the "playing" of request, but fire away by all means!

If you like what you hear, then at some point along the way you can visit the donation page I've set up. Hopefully we can build a little on the current total, which is nothing.

Alright! It's late, and I need to be up at sparrows...

SO... Keep in touch you hear! Would be great to hear from you along the way as the Invisi-Mo takes shape.

Cheers for now,

Renny
