Tommy’s brother cooks us all lunch, and thus bolstered we do the 2+ hour drive into London. The last mile takes about 30 mins of that. Bless the metropolis.

It’s a sell-out show, and FranKo re-introduce ‘I Am Right’ into the set, which proves to be a popular decision with a crowd that are definitely ‘up for it.’ They cheer the announcement of each song title and jump around for ‘Speak Up’ and ‘I Am Right’. It’s the show of the tour so far, no question…

Ivyrise do a barnstormer again tonight, too - sounding the best they have yet. ‘Hurts’ is one hell of a set closer!

We drive back to Ricky’s, and crash out… He has to rehearse on a 5 octave marimba for Young Musician in the morn, and we have 2 shows to do tomorrow.
