Time for a little breather...

Hi again everyone, just a quick update from me to say a big THANKS to all of you who've shown your support over the past few years, at home and abroad, it's been quite a journey indeed. I've played in pubs, bars, living rooms, kitchens, under the stars, on the street... I've slept on couches, floors, in tents, and even managed a few nights in the back of my '97 Mirage. (If you don't think that's possible, well it's not. That's why I won't be doing it again). But more importantly than all that, I've met a whole bunch of wonderful people in my travels whose generosity can never really be repaid. Not until I have a place of my own of course, then I daresay the Karmic Hotel might be open for the foreseeable future. Not that I mind of course, what goes around comes around as they say. Which is absolutely fine by me.

Anyway as it turns out, the going around and coming around also has a third lesser known sibling - that being the slowing down. Which is not something I've done a whole lot of these past few years, at least not in a touring sense. But after a few months on the road in Europe last year, and a further 6 months on the road back home, I figured it was time for a little hiatus of sorts. Not the type that will have me hanging up the touring boots for good mind you, just the kind that will see me take a break from the airwaves whilst I work on some new tunes, some new projects perhaps, possibly some new directions as well. No doubt I'll check in from time to time as the journey unfolds but just for a little while I'll be hopping off the communications train whilst I reset the internal compass and get my bearings back a bit. As a friend of mine from Ireland always says - to be continued... to be continued...

Thanks again everyone, see you soon.

The photo...

Yeah I was getting to that. This is a shot from a good friend of mine - Anthony Pearse. I could have chosen one that was slightly kinder to my less-than-spectacular abilities on a surfboard, but there's a mysterious element to this that I kinda liked. Anthony is a wonderful local photographer, well worth checking out a few more pics if you get the chance - one of my faves is on the home page right now:
