Dubai, Golf, Jace Everett and the MPs…!?@!!:)

Hey People,

We got back from Abu Dhabi and Dubai last Monday - had an awesome time performing out there for Caffe Nero and ‘Dubai Sound City’. Had an amazing experience playing on a floating stage outside Festival City (..getting a boat to a gig definitely beats the Tube) whilst the sun was setting with the audience chilling on big cushions. Met some great people including the Events Team at ‘Dubai Mall’ who all came down to watch us play at Caffe Nero - now that we’ve got a distribution deal in Dubai let’s hope we’ll get the chance to visit again soon.

Last Wednesday (Nov 11th) we held the first official ‘Honey Ryder Cup’ at the wonderful Buckinghamshire Golf Club. Thanks to all who attended and despite the rain, I think you’ll agree we had a great day out. Martyn ‘hacked’ his way round the course in true Neanderthal Man style whilst my cousin Dan, picked up the prize for the longest drive. Go Danny Boyle…!
We performed a gig for everyone that evening and were joined up on stage by Eric Nicoli & Alistair Butt for a memorable rendition of ‘Choices’.

Last night we supported Jace Everett at The Water Rats (Jace wrote the theme tune to Hit TV Show ‘True Blood’). The place was packed with a very ‘up for it’ crowd which made our set all the more enjoyable and afterwards we hung around to catch Jace who was excellent. Thanks to all our old fans who flew the HR Flag and welcome to all the newly converted HR fans we won over. It was great to meet you all after the show.

We’re going into the studio soon to start the pre-production of our second album - can’t bloody wait - and we’re also looking forward to performing a set on the Terrace at the House of Commons on December 2nd for all the MP’s. Will keep u posted

L&M x
