A fantastic open mic tonight with excellent singalongs and audience participation... I would expect nothing less at The Cricketers! My set was:

1. Jamie Gray - Someone to Love
2. Muse - Ruled By Secrecy
3. Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody

And then to round the night off...

4. Fountains of Wayne - Stacy's Mom (with Rob Winterbourne on cajon and Patrick Craig on vocals!)

I got a middle-to-late time slot for this week's open mic, and decided to push some of my original material instead of being predictable by recycling covers. The set was:

1. Jamie Gray - Fantasia
2. Edvard Grieg - Småtrold (Puck, from A Midsummer Night's Dream), Op. 71 No. 3
3. Jamie Gray - Moonlit Beach (world premiere!)

An abridged set, though I'm not sure why as there weren't excessive numbers of performers down tonight and some of the later performers got their 3 songs. Mysterious. Anyhow, the set was:

1. Katie Melua - Learnin' the Blues
2. The Beatles-  When I'm Sixty-Four

SoundCloud

I'm not exactly sure why it has taken me so long to pull my finger out, but at long last I can proudly say I have a SoundCloud presence. Feedback and constructive criticism of the pieces put up is always welcome as it will only help me improve.
