Dear Los Angeleno Friends

Dear Los Angeleno Friends,

After spending a lovely May Day in some marches here in Seattle I spent the evening at a beautiful theatre, The Paramount, to see my friends Snow Patrol. Of course I’m biased, but I can honestly cross-my-heart-and-hope-to-die tell you that they are a great live band and a lot of fun. Pinky swear.

They will be in your neighbourhood at the Hollywood Palladium on May 8th, usually they play massive stadiums so it’s a really nice treat to be able to see them in cozier spots. I highly recommend you go see them play, and their soundman is possibly the best live mixer I’ve ever heard! Anyway, go and come back here and let me know what you thought of their show!

Seattle has some really good musicians, and I’ve met some of the best of them on this trip. It also has some fun venues to play in, venues that actually respect musicians and don’t just use them to do the venue’s marketing for them. I’ve been playing here a bunch and meeting lovely fans of music too. If you’re one of them and you’ve just stumbled on my site, go here for regular updates and say ‘hello!’:

Fortunately for me, Seattle also has some lovely sunsets.

Well, I’m going to go back out now and see what other bits of loveliness are hiding around this city.

Don’t worry dearest Venice, I haven’t forgotten about you! I’ll be back home soon.

Love,

SJ
