Lipgloss Weekend / August 24 2007
All the decks have been cleared in the studio ready for Nelson’s arrival later today. He will be here until Tuesday. We are due to begin work on his first full-length album. I shall be producing it, whilst drummer Graham Boffey, trumpeter Ash Morgan and sax-god Paul Varga, my Enormous cohorts, will also be lending a hand. I shall document here our progress over the weekend and in the coming months.
It is destined to be a real stonker, and if all goes well, we have it pencilled in for a Christmas release on Big Arena Records.
Tomorrow, I have Nelson booked into a photographic studio to do some initial publicity shots for the campaign. I would have done them myself, but as I told him yesterday, ‘I wouldn’t really know what to go for, Nel. I’ve never photographed a transvestite before.’ (Are you sure about that? – Ed.)
He has forsworn to escort me every evening to the comfy public houses of the village. I did warn him though, that this being an ex-mining area, it would probably be a good idea to dress down and keep the glamour to a minimum whilst we are out and about.
Moreover, I sincerely hope that he does not lead me astray again and ply me with too much booze, thus rendering me incapable in the control-room. We shall have to see what happens . . .
