Checked in @ St. Mary's Church, Totnes. Rehearsing our Buzz set for next weeks gig
I wish I could write #music like the BBC news intro.

Back from a good meeting. Lets agree, Scandinavia is metal, regardless of genre.

@sweden is certainly the country most capable of taking traditional tunes and making them metal ;)

New rule for programmers: if you claim to be a rockstar, you must provide photo of yourself with big hair, leather jeans and a Stratocaster.

Tom Morris I have an electric Hurdy Gurdy, does that count?
The poster is for a gig I’m doing in December. But just because it’s a print poster is no reason not to use #microformats2 #µf2 h-card!
Iterating over a #gurdy with sharpies and a TV: 
Oho, #firstsignofwinter: My hurdy #gurdy’s keyboard is beginning to play up up.
#TIL how to chamfer leather. Approximately 2 sheep worth of leather goes into a traditional pipe organ.

Just uploaded a demo of my Vio Hurdy Gurdy’s pickups: https://soundcloud.com/barnabywalters/vio-hurdy-gurdy-bouree-aurore-sand
Great to hear https://soundcloud.com/showofhandsmusic/king-of-the-world-1 — it’s improved since the first performance!
Just realised where I’d seen the @geoloqi logo before. Hurdy Gurdies have loads of them inside: 
Busking on… some street in Brighton. You can probably hear me anyway.
I have found that, when travelling with a Hurdy Gurdy, perspectives change.
Items are no longer classified into “clothes, electronics, wash kit, etc”, they merely become “Gurdy padding” and “stuff which might damage the Gurdy”
My plan for today: drive round with scratched folk CDs blaring and pretend I’m down with the kids
