WELL...WE WEREN'T EXPECTING THIS FOR 2020 WERE WE? :-\

April 08, 2020  /  Mike Von Beardingham

It would have been nice to be able to say hello to all you lovely people at this time of year filled with the joys of spring….but life is anything but predictable!

As the big C hit the news in china i had to make the decision about pulling out of a couple of shows due to showing what i thought were mild symptoms, Luckily this turned out to be nothing. Fortune did favour this precaution, as it meant having to cancel a few shows just while the virus was staring to take hold. So quarantining early meant as of the moment, myself and my family are safe.

Sadly its not the case for a lot of people. Many pub and entertainment venues and staff have come down with the virus to various degrees of severity. Also with the fact of people not taking this shit seriously until everything got substantially worse, we are now in lockdown for the forseeable future. All upcoming gigs as you would guess have been cancelled but as soon as its safe to do so, we will be out gigging again to the local masses xxx

But in the meantime i’m managing to kee[ a branch of music going for entertaining you all, regarding my live streams, We’ve adapted things now so i can do skype sessions, interviews and whatever else springs to mind with fairly good results, Live Streams will be wednesday evenings at 9pm and saturdays at 8:30pm. you can find these on my facebook, youtube, twitch and periscope. there will also hopefully be a live interview with a musical friend of mine once a week so keep an eye out for that too!

I will be doing some more vocal analysis videos as well. They seem to be gradually creeping up the ranks and people are enjoying them which is bloody marvellous!

So everybody out there in the big wide world who are going through a scary time:

  • be safe

  • do your research, listen to experts, not posts on social media

  • dont get involved in the people politics, its time to help each other not be shitty

  • ISOLATE! sooner people realise this is the way to end this the quicker it will be over

  • just remember there will be an end to this, so do your part to make it happen quicker

stay safe and much love to you all darlings xxx
