Scotland and London

For the past two weeks I've been looking forward to coming to Britain. Not that I was ready to leave Spain neccessarily, but it was so freaking hot down there it could be unbearable at times. I thought the UK would be a nice cool-down at the very least.

Geuss what? Record-setting heatwave up here. And in a way its worse since not many places have AC.

Regardless, Scotland was fantastic. As some sort of promotion for the festival we flew in a helicopter from the airport to our hotel after we had landed. It was a lot of fun and I got some good pictures. Nairn, Scotland was beautiful. We saw an old castle, walked along the beach, played a great gig for hundreds of people, and sampled some fantastic Scotch. All of this lead to me not getting to sleep until around 7 AM, but that has been par for the course for this trip.

We arrived in London yesterday. There was a big debacle with the hotels and after shuffling us around for a few hours I finally got to my room where I proceeded to crash out.

The soundcheck is today. I'm looking forward to this final week of the tour. Not only do I love London, but I have some friends here and the club we are playing at is a world-renowned jazz club. It should be a nice way to end the trip.

    I'm glad you're having such a great time. I'm glad you'll get to see your friends while there. I know as the days pass that Carrie, Murphy and home will be all you can think about. It's fun to go but much better to go home to your sweeties. Have you bought any souveniers? Have fun at your final shows.

    Do you know where I get to go on business travel? L.A., NYC, Atlanta, Boston, Seattle (when there's no hurricane scuttling plans). Rob's business travel: Scotland, Ireland, Portugal, Brazil, Italy. I think you two suck.

    I'm not complaining but I am envious. I don't think I'd have had as much fun as you have without my favorite travel partner but then again, I'm getting old. I like my short trips to big cities in the US. Have fun you lucky duck.

    Dear Lymans Mom,
    Just to let you know we have been taking good care of your little boy while he was here in London. First I made sure he got some good education - so we went to the British Museum and learned all about the ancient Assyrians and why Greece can't have the Elgin Marbles back!!!
    After making sure he got to bed at a reasonable time after playing music with his friends I made sure Lyman got a proper Sunday Lunch, roast beef and yorkshire pudding.

    You should be very proud of bringing up such a good man as Lyman. We love him just as much!

    D & S,

    Thanks for taking care of my Sonny Boy, I really appreciate it. It's nice to have friends all over that will come to see you, entertain you and take good care of you. I'm sure he was delighted to get to be with you both. Have a great day.
