It's been a good and positive week. Support the podcast: bit,ly/SharkeyPatreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Ive just noticed the podcast has had over 10,000 listens in it's life. Thank you so much! I'm on track to get the book finished and then I can focus on something else - all in a bid to displace the energy I'd be putting into touring if there wasn't a pesky rona going about. FEELING GOOD and ready to birthday next week. :) Support the podcast: bit.ly/SharkeyPatreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It was lovely to be asked to talk to Anita and tony for the Micro Music podcast out of Southampton.

Good morning, Hobo Sapiens. I've had a break and now it's time to think out-loud again. This year has not been the most enjoyable for people with my sort of work - we're all trying to work out how relevant we are as to how relevant we feel - and the two very rarely meet up. This is a re-cap of what's been happening in the break and what's to come - including recording album 16/40: Calm Down! this weekend coming and doing a live stream show on FB on Thursday 01st October.
