A wee bunch of Gordon solo shows to tell you about.  All details in the “show” section of the website.

You can also now watch Part 1 of ballboy live at the Luminaire which was recorded in July 2008 and find out why Alexa swears so much (amongst other things):

See you there!

1st Nov – Leith Theatre Session (Charity gig in support of Leith Theatre Trust)

Doors are at 6.30, entry is £10 and I am playing first.

The following night I am playing at this:

2nd Nov – Secret CDs @ The Voodoo Rooms

So within 2 nights you get the chance to come support the future of the Leith Theatre and also the future of Edinburgh’s finest Open Mic night – Out Of The Bedroom (“ah Ambassador, with these consecutive acoustic gigs you are really spoiling us etc etc”).

Worth seeing Be Like Pablo too who were one of the standouts at the Edinburgh Popfest last year. Exuberant, catchy Scottish Pop.

2. All ballboy albums are now available for immediate download on Bandcamp. This includes the Money Can’t Buy Music album and the Midsummer soundtrack.

We will be adding EP songs and oddities and rarities as time goes on.

Cheers all – have a great week.
