He has played clubs and festivals all over Europe and countless studio sessions.............. Away from the third person, here's Chris:...........Here goes; it's a hot day here so I take off a sock and put it in the cereal box. I pick up the guitar and notice that the top 'E' is flat. I work on my song. It has a lovely melody so I put it on the 16 track. I get on the Roland kit and bash along. My other sock falls off so I pick it up and hold it in the air for ages. I think that my arm hurts and I'm just glad that that exercise is not in the contract, if I had one. I put down some Fender bass and some keys and maybe Kim walks in and throws a can of beans at my temple. I make her play some sax and then she makes me talk Spanish at her. A success.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4Save It For Later
