i'm recording the new ep today.

i know i said i was doing it months ago. but you know me. it takes me months to sort anything out. lol.
but yeah. i'm recording about 5 songs. and i'll put three of them on cd for general release. but not for a little while yet. you'll be able to buy it at the shows in the spring ( i say this but i probably wont have any more shows until the summer lol. get your local venue to book me!!)

anyway. ill blog when i get back :) and let you all know how it went.

take care,

OCTOBER...

is the time loads of stuff's happening. tours. recordings. radio sessions. but nothing much is happening now apart from writing. it's going well. i'm demoing all my songs so i can get a band.

jeeze. i'm going to be busy!

here. have a polaroid.

the weirdest thing

i'm not even joking. i actually experienced love at first sight today. for the first time ever. believe me. you'll know when it happens.

woahhhh.

i bought a spiderman comic to read on the way home on the train. it's annoying because it left me on a really good cliff hanger AND iron man's in it so naturally i HAVE to buy the next issue. it's bloody £2.50 though. better get saving...

lightspeed champion single launch @ 229.

so, i paid £7.50 for the ticket and £32 for the train and boy was it worth it. seriously the best gig i've ever been to. emmy the great supported lightspeed champion and they were both amazing and faris rotter and jack penate did performances. emmy knew who i was before i even said anything which was really nice. she gave me a 'tom hatred' cd which i haven't listened to and she invited me to her ep launch in august which was very nice also! oh and i met dev (lightspeed champion) and he was very nice too. and a lot taller than i imagined. he was really excited too. he was like a little boy at his own single launch. he was really funny and talked a lot to the crowd and we loved it.

i went alone to the gig and tried to make some friends there. i asked on myspace before for tips on how to make friends at a gig and most responses involved alcohol. when i got to the gig there were lots of people outside and i queued up and was like one of the first 5 to get in. then they changed the age limit to 18+ so all the kids were stuck outside and i was INSIDE having a fucking great time.

i made 5 friends at the gig by saying "i'm lonely and i have no friends" which was true and they took me in :) and i had lots of fun with them. i've so far found three of them on myspace. but yes. www.myspace.com/eddieharrisonmakesmusic.

anyway, basically it was amazing and here are a few photos from the night!!

new ep

i've decided it's going to be called 's club 7 taught me to sing'.

it's going to have 3 or 4 songs on it. all totally new songs. i really like them so i hope everyone else likes them.

great piece of advice - nobody knows better than yourself. it really works. just listen to yourself. everybody else is a dick and they don't know better =)

conversation with my mother

we were just talking then. i said it was abit inconvenient that she's a vegetarian when making lagasne that you have to share the pots of sauce between the meat and vege lasagne rather than just using it all in one.

mum: you're a cruel meat eater
eddie: well, you're annoying
mum: i'm compationate
eddie: well, you're gay

i played the childish card.

lol.

LDN Tour

I went to London for four days, all the time thinking about an amazing blog I could do about it when I got back. Making little notes in my head of what i'd say and what'd be good to include but i've forgotten it all and the most exciting thing I can remember (and that was documented in a photograph) was when we got lost and had to consult a trusty A to Z that was about 10 years old.

Me, Dad and Auntie. (The buildings behind us shouldn't have been there according to Mr.AtoZ)
