Spinal Tap at Wembley Arena - 30 June 2009
“One Night Only World Tour”

Things are starting to look up. I won £10 on the lottery today and with a mixture of excitement and trepidation accepted an invitation from CJ Vanston to join Spinal Tap at Wembley Arena this Tuesday 30th June after their successful Glastonbury show. I guess they liked my contribution to their latest album "Back From The Dead".

Tom, of "Noddy's Puncture", recently recovering from a motorcycle crash is supplying a Hammond L100 for me to ride. I hope he gets it back in one or two pieces as I try and fill the shoes of "Taps" first keyboard player Viv Savage. Viv was very much admired by me and Rick W. Nobody seems to know where Viv is now although there have been various reported sightings of him in Guayaquil, Shodoshima and even Littlehampton.

"Tap into Wembley!!!" Thanks guys and CJ Vanston.
