31. Funeral
In the past few years I’ve been to too many funerals of people my age. Andy was a college mate, briefly our drummer and an all round top fella. He and I were the only people we both knew that loved this track. I listen to it now and smile thinking about him. RIP Andy

Like many of us, I was in a band in my late teens/early twenties. After it ran its course I didn’t play for years. I’m now in a band again, with some mates. We played a gig at the half moon in Putney earlier this year. Here’s a clip
