Aim: To survive financially until the coronavirus pandemic is over, and I can get back to working in music venues again.

I'm not interested in making a pile of cash from doing this - and I don't imagine I will!  If I can make just enough to tide me over, pay a few bills and keep the roof over my head until the pandemic is over, I would be eternally grateful.

Right now, I have NO source of income, and whilst the government has put plans in place to help most people, the Self-Employed, and those working in the "gig" economy, have largely been left to our own devices.  

These are desperate times, and I have to try something in order to survive. Music is my ONLY source of income, and has been for many years. Under the current circumstances, I have no means of support, and have just about enough money to keep me going for another week, or two, at the most.

I'm intending to post live acoustic sets (and maybe a full on electric set - if my neighbours allow me to make a racket for an hour or so!) on my Facebook page on a weekly basis throughout this crisis.  I can take requests from friends on my page, and hopefully include a wee bit of banter too.  With a bit of luck, I'll be able to raise a few smiles during the difficult days ahead, while at the same time, make enough money to keep myself going until this crisis is over, and I can go back out and entertain folks in the traditional manner.

Stay safe and well folks - and hope to see you all in person in the near future.

Thanks!
