Tonight at The Troxy

Well, tonight at Gina Birch's invitation, I'll be joining her, Marie and Jenny on stage for a couple of songs at the end of their support set for Jack White. 

You could have knocked me down with a feather. 

I've learned the backing vocals for the original song I'm singing on, but Lola is proving to be more of a challenge. Jenny says I can take the lyrics on stage with me, which will be a big help. It's actually the structure as much as anything else, but we'll have time for a run-through at sound check time.

I'm the green one (each person has a different colour) and I bought some cheap green trousers off eBay and have dug out some old green jewellery that I'm wearing already in case I forget to take it at the last minute.

This is the first gig singing I've done since mid-November, so it's a Big Thing. I haven't been keen on being at gigs, so will mooch about backstage and just soak up the atmosphere, for verily the Troxy is a dude of a gig!
