Do you know something I think it is about six years since we’ve played a gig in public so I’m looking forward to remembering all my words. Vagabond Shoes was the title of a song we wrote a few years ago. It was all about what it was like being a disciple of  Jesus. You had to put up with a lot. You were always out on the road. I guess you felt like a band of brothers. Playing in the Bogle Band was a of a similar experience. Sometimes you feel this bond, I think its all about voices harmonising and feeling and share the same space.Here is a fascinating and spooky fact I have never noticed before. My father was called James so I am James’ son. For over 21 years I’ve written songs with a “Jamieson” who happens to have the same birthday as my father,  and whose mother thinks we have the same  personality streaks.  Now tomorrow night my son will join the Bogle Jamieson partnership to perform at the Carberry Festival and guess what he has James in his name as well. I’m really looking forward to getting the chance to sing  again some of the songs we’ve written the  new ones as well as  the  old ones.  I think its going to be a really good night. We thought we’d base the set around swapping songs, one generation of song writers talking to another and telling the stories about the songs. So if your reading this get down to Carberry tonight for 8.30pm and enjoy what I can only describe, what will be a unique experience. I ‘ll try and get some pics to post on the blog tomorrow. Oh one thing more i think it will be a really good gig because I’m looking out some old footage of the band and also some video clips to compliment the songs. I’m glad that Rae Manger who I collaborate with when making these video clips, will also be around to give the techie support. And a big thanks to Craig Hannah an ex Bogle Band member who was down at carberry with Stephen tonight rigging up the PA. The picture above was poster from a Bogle Band Concert way back since I don’t have a current pic of the band this will do.
