Pete's Indiscreet 25Live Blog - London 10th March 2012

Tired. Got to bed about 5.45am, woke up around 9am and just couldn't get back to sleep. Grrr! We met in reception at midday and found a rather splendid diner where we had brunch, Bellies full we headed off to Shepherd's Bush and the Empire.

Now the Empire has always been one of those venues I've wanted to play but never had done. After we called it a day in '95 I thought I would never achieve that ambition but here I am on 10th March 2012 finally realising it with the band I love. I am indeed a very lucky individual.

Pete's Indiscreet 25Live Blog - Manchester 9th March 2012

Woke up about 8am, tried to get back to sleep, couldn't, balls. Sharing with Richard, our sound man. Rich is also driving us, he'd had a long day and I didn't want to disturb him by getting up so I lay there and probably dozed a bit but not so I noticed. Rich woke about 10.30am, we got ready and went in search of caffeine-filled beverages. We got on the road to Manchester about 12.30pm. An easy drive into the City of Manchester. 

The crew are here, the gear is going in. Wow, what a fine venue. It's a sell-out, I'm thinking tonight could be rather special. Soundcheck goes without a hitch, all sounding good. The Deborah Bonham Band is going to join us and Romeo's Daughter this evening and we also have a very special guest joining us tonight...  Read more...

25 years (and a bit) ago our début INDISCREET was unleashed onto the unsuspecting public and here we are today heading for Glasgow to celebrate that fact with the first of our "25 Live" shows. We're playing the album in its entirety, some songs we haven't played live for probably 20 years or more, and with Love Lies Dying - tonight it will receive its live début.

Today started as any normal weekday with the school run but that was to be the end of any normality for the next 3 days. Straight afterwards I headed...  Read more...
