take a deep breath; we're going over the top
Hello ... how's life for you? Inspired I hope. Welcome to those who are new to the occasionally interesting newsletter that is poyzer homeworld ... thanks to all of you for taking the time to read and take interest ... this time, we have 6 things:
1) Bryan Glancy - A couple of links for those who know Bryan ... I may be the messenger of bad news to some here ... come together, celebrate a very special life:
Online Tributes and Meeting Place
There's an acoustic shindig at which we'll be remembering a very dear friend at The Bierkeller in Manchester this Friday February 3rd. Bryan was booked to play there ... if you'd like more info, please feel free to e-mail me.
That was one f***ing stunning shooting star. Love across galaxies, wherever you are, dp x
2) What's Going On with Darren Poyzer then ... - Hey don't ask me; I'm just a boy in a blue hat. I'm putting so much into the teaching and workshop stuff right now, and it's all mega special stuff, that I've stopped breathing for a while. As Tom, one of my mega talented students said: "It'll come back double" ... yeah, I get the gist. Never been this busy in January before ... it's dizzying and strange. Anyone heard Kate Bush's Washine Machine song? ... kinda like that.
The joy for now comes from this review of the first Poyzer gig of 2006:
DARREN
WOW'S WU'S (Dr Wu's, Leeds, Jan 2006)
"... it is easy to see why he is acknowledged as one of the
best in the business by fellow musicians and fans alike. With a stage
presence that puts you at ease, to the point where you feel Darren has
been your best mate for years, this was a gig you didn’t want
to finish ... With songs that explore and analyse all aspects of human
life and behaviour, Darren is in a class of his own and Leeds can only
hope for a very quick return." - Paul Abraham, Yorkshire

Ok, there are other pleasures in life, but matched with the lack of confidence I brought into the New Year, this is ice cream. Cheers Paul ... and to think I didn't even buy the guy a drink.
