Another cracking night at the Peel with two of the most entertaining bands at the moment; Tinyfish and Jump. In addition to my usual pictures there is a very amusing Tinyverse covering the gig as well. Enjoy.

Those wacky progrockers Tinyfish has released their latest video-blog, in which we learn more about what members of Tinyfish did before they became the world's smallest progrock band. We also get a sample of Ride from their forthcoming album.

Day 1 of Summer's End ended with yours truly seeing more of Glouchester than I had intended to. My sat nav was refusing to locate my hotel and I ended up having to find the M5 and then following my printed directions from there. Something which added an extra hour to my already late night. It did not help that the people in the next room having just retired from the bar decided to continue the partying for an additional hour.

I have to confess that I did not know what to expect from Summer's End. I am fairly new to the whole prog scene, you see. As a child of the 70s I missed out on the first wave of progressive bands like King Crimson, Yes and Genesis. It was only a couple of years ago when a colleague, who happened to play in a prog band, peeked my interest in exploring this genre of music. His band, Tinyfish, was due to play at Summer's End 2007, and he played me a couple of tracks of their Summer's End promotional cd. Since then I have been hooked. Thanks Rob.

During Summer's End I was introduced to AmazingWilf, an all around great guy and the man behind the European Perspective. His latest issue is now available here and I will let him describe the contents in his own words.

A new video-blog from my favorite prog rockers, Tinyfish. We get to experience them at the Cambridge Rock Festival and in the studio.

Last Saturday evening I was at The Peel in Kingston for one of best gigs I been to. See separate post here. Thanks to Catherine from the Tinyfish forum you can experience some of the magic yourself.

F#@king Awesome.

It is perhaps not politically correct to be glad that someone broke their arm, but if it had not been for Jem Godfrey breaking his arm in a freak (read alcohol was involved) soft-ball accident, I would not have experienced the best gig I have been to in a long long time.
