"Nearly everything you do is of no importance, but it is important that you do it." (Ghandi)

I know it's a crime
We're living in Hollywood
And angry at everything
Buying a joke or two
Borrowed, old and new
I know it's a crime
Always a useless day
Always a restless day
Boasting of what we lack
Companions alone
I know it's a crime
Washed up in the Milky Way
Beached in these endless days
Tied in these subtle ways
Here we're becalmed
We wish we were charmed
We wish we weren't stranded here
Living in Hollywood
And angry at everything
I know it's a crime
We're marketed to
We're liberal idealists
We're three out of ten slash wrists
We've lost hope in every way
I know it's a crime


We're footprints in concrete
We're gaspers for air
We're fighters for good ideals
We're intrigue and jealousy
We're believers in causes
We're tangible pain
We're rooted  in stony ground
We're circles forced out of round
We're shaven and stripped
We're packaged and shipped
We're marketed to
We're  liberal idealists
We're three out of ten slash wrists
We've lost hope in every way
We  can't face even one more day
I know it's a crime

I also play solo shows sometimes, and am trying to bring the culture of Living Room Concerts to the U.K. and Europe. If you would like to host a Living Room Show, or if you just want to find out more, mail me here, and I will send you details of how the whole shebang works. Detailsof any upcoming shows will be on this page, and linked from the main gigs  page.
