Gig @ Brighton Frocks





I was asked recently by my friend Liz Bishop to play at a fashion show she was organising, and it turned out to be one hell of an event (with one hell of an afterparty - didn't fully recover for 2 days..).

You can check out the event @ www.myspace.com/brightonfrocks




I played Accordian outside on the lawn, as the queue walked in - performing the majority of the accordion tracks from the Amelie soundtrack - La Valse d'Amelie, L'autre valse d'Amelie, La Noyee, A Quai, La Valse des Monstres, Soir de Fete - I had some great compliments, a few people dancing, and at least 5 or 6 people asking me if I was playing Amelie..!

If you were playing Yann Tiersen on the street, I wouldn't ask you what you are playing, I would just jump and kiss you hahaha!!
No, now seriously, I've watch all your videos and I love every single one. I think what you do is great.
Don't ever stop.
Kisses

Strings in the earth and air
Make music sweet;
Strings by the river where
The willows meet.

There's music along the river
For Love wanders there,
Pale flowers on his mantle,
Dark leaves on his hair.

All softly playing,
With head to the music bent,
And fingers straying
Upon an instrument.

(J. Joyce)

...you already read this words, but i think this poem is special...
for a so special guy,

just, sensitive...

um beijo grande,
wonderful musician**

Je t'ai découvert sur youtube, par hasard en cherchant la vidéo de ghinzu "the dragster-wave"...
Etant donné que j'aime beaucoup Yann Tiersen notemment grâce au film "le fabuleux destin d'amélie Poulain", et aussi que tu joues très bien (On croirait vraiment que C toi qui a composé la chanson, il n'y a aucune fausse note tout est parfait!) j'ai été voir toutes tes vidéos et j'ai trouvé ton blog.
J'adore ta dégaine, tu es un vrai artiste.
Continue comme ça, et continue à nous faire vibrer avec ton talent.
Bonne chance même si tu ne doit pas comprendre un seul mot de français.

Thought I might leave a comment, since I can't seem to remember my youtube ID...
Wonderful music playing, and as a musician I'm really appreciating, especially the accordion.. (not seen to many people that weren't really old playing that..)
-Thanks

Oh..I think..what?? It doesn´t mater.. I´m on dead point.. You are brilliant, amazing, wonderful..you know..:/ This words are very often here.. But I think..it isn´t serious..no serious.. Who are you Dave? Are you abrupt as your record room..sad as your eyes..?? Or..is it only your pose?? So sorry.. - my dead point..:/ Have you got somebody..I mean..your waitres..or waiter from Montmarter?? I´m not asking for your partner..only for SOME person.. This kind of pathos destroy me.. So..my pigmy with red hood will send you some postcard for contentment..:)
