Finally went to see the British Fund for Ageing Rockers.
I told them: “You give me some money, I’ll make some songs.”
They said they had leftover funds at the end of the fiscal year.
So now I’m back in the studio — or whatever they call it these days. 🎸💷

Had a great idea for a celebrity booze.
Called it RumQuila - you can probably work out the blend.
The companies loved the drink, but not the celebrity.
Still, I got a slogan out of it: “It’s banging your head for ya.” 🥃💀

Couldn’t afford a dog, so I fed a picture of one instead.
Every morning, the bowl was empty.
Love finds a way. 🐾

People ask why I left the band.
Let’s just say, getting paid in one-pound coins and being told dinner with the crew was a privilege didn’t help.
It took me a while to wake up. But I did. And I am. And I will.

Welcome to Life at the Bottom - my ongoing reflections from the lower frequencies.
I’m filming these on the Saniphone™, invented by my dad, who sanitized phones for a living.
It cleans itself. Sometimes too well.
Stick with me - we’ll see what survives the software. 🎸📱

The good news: recording’s going swimmingly.
The bad news: apparently no one buys albums anymore. Not even me.
So we’re releasing digital singles - whatever those are. 💿🤷
