Any plans, and I know 2025 is a busy one, but any plans to do a full band tour of the brilliant in-store shows recently. Of your solo stuff, it sounded incredible at the Coventry evening I got to, was so good 🙌🏼

It was another great gig by @smellybdrmm.bsky.social in Brum last night. The set list works really well, blending the songs from the new album with a lot of old favourites. Go see them on their remaining dates if you’re able to.
Good to see Nancy, Mark, John, Ben & Barbie.
