Tiddleminster; the first shows

"Line"

The first two 'Welcome to Tiddleminster' shows are in the bag and I am writing this looking from a deep post-gig depression.

As with last year's 'Halloween Horror Compendium' it was hugely beneficial to do it twice. On the second night you get to dump a ton of anxiety and have a better idea of what you're working with. I've already got a ton of tweaks and ideas to look into on the long road to Edinburgh.  

As I've said, the ultimate aim for this show is for me to have an hour's worth of performance which, once seen, forever changes the chemical make-up of the brain leading to erratic, unpredictable and violent behaviour.

I'll keep this blog updated with gigs and all the things we're working on to make it like a Foxtons top salesman, i.e. slick. It was great to do the show to a sea of familiar, friendly faces. The downside of this is that I didn't need to print flyers and boosting Facebook posts to reach 5,000 people is a mug's game. You might as well be throwing your money in a canal which would probably attract more people.

Tiddleminster; The Final Countdown

Folks, we're in the final few days running up to Tiddleminster and to celebrate I've inked this picture of a topless cowboy riding a big blue bird. It's called 'Dreamscape' and my pager has been vibrating its way off my desk with offers to buy it from some really big brand names. You've probably got some of their merchandise in your flat right now, taking care of all your pest related issues.

Just a reminder that you can still pick up your tickets via this trendy hyperlink.

Now leave me be, I've got a tiny little Tesco Metro to illustrate.

They say that the key to writing a great show is to first start with the poster. Stare at it long enough everything else will follow. On a related note - does anybody have an old doll's head I can cadge?
