Wednesday 1 February 2006
I've had an unusually productive day today. I began it by coming up with a possible programme for us to play at a contemporary music festival, then after talking radio and other things with Janice Forsyth for a while, I met Greg for lunch to catch up with his and others' latest creative ideas, and then headed for Edinburgh and an SCO rehearsal with Nic McGegan, always a pleasure. I fitted in a visit to the Edinburgh bike shop, and some time reading and playing from the score of Einstein on the Beach, making some useful strategic decisions. And I found that Classic FM have been playing tracks from The Red Red Rose regularly for the last week or two. That would explain all the CD sales then.
