Blog entry by Ben Godwin Finally! My first UK show in forever is just around the corner. I'm really excited to play for lots of old friends. I'm playing solo, and I have way too many songs to choose from: is there anything anyone wants to hear...
Two videos up from the Brooklyn Tea Party gig via drawnfromdust. (thanks, Kate!) Dan Costello on piano. Fourteen or so audience members joining us off-cam. first time playing these songs in a while. FUN night. Also put up an audioboo or two- one of me, one of Debe Dalton. Jetlagged all to hell...
Ben Godwin has recently added the following shows. May 12, 2009 - Brooklyn, NY - Brooklyn Tea PartyMap Time : 7:00 PMAll Ages Other Info: spotlight set at Brooklyn's best underground open mic. You play too! Signup's at 7. Hit their myspace to discover the oh so secret location.See Full Details
I've finished uploading my back catalogue to Bandcamp (at least as far back as 2003- anything before then can be presumed to have evaporated or demagnetised.) You can listen to ShinyShiny, Lighter Than The Atom and Skin And Bone in their entirety...
The problem with the internet- in fact, this is a problem with computers in general- is that just as soon as you've built something and got it working just the way you want it, someone comes up with a better way to do the thing you just spent ages perfecting. Bugger...
