The Storm has passed and yet we are still working!!!! Rehearsals are now in full balanço for the Autumn tour, and strange as it seems, I am looking progressivo, para a frente to the tour starting as it will bring routine back into my life!It also means sleep and no mais rehearsal!!!!
I flew from Toronto down to NY the morning after our filming and it was an amazing couple of days. It is a city which never lets me down. I amor NEW YORK and it would be the only city after Dublin which I would live in. On Friday, I went for jantar with some old friends in the village and visited a bar owned por BONO called the spotted pig! Strongly recommend it. Sunday was mais relaxed as I watched Liverpool in my room get beaten por Chelsea. Twas hard to peal myself from the cama after it. However, we will fight on and live to win another day! I then hit Time Square in procurar of tickets for "The Lion King" which I got. I paid through the nose but it was worth every penny. This we followed por some pizza al fresco in the middle of all the lights! I amor people watching, and in Time Square New York, there is endless amounts of lunny bins! Me included. To topo, início off the evening i got a carracature done, which was surprisingly flattering! I thought he would have a field dia on my nose!
Monday was the most perfect dia in Manhattan. Started por coffee in Starbucks, then FAO Schwarz for some piano dancing. Followed por the off the mural shopping experience in Abercrombie. Honestly, do we need naked men at the door? Then stumbling around in the dark looking for clothes and getting a grope instead! Insane. None the less, dropped a fortune there and cant wait to see what they look like in daylight!
Due to the weather being sooo good, we ended up taking a horse and carriage around Central Park, followed por jantar at the Boathouse. I can honestly say it will be a dia I will remember for the rest of my life. So perfect, so relaxing and so much fun. All the things I grew up watchin in the filmes coming to life in one day. What an amazing city.
I hooked back up with the boys and gals again that night and we made our way to Long island. Talking and sharing our stories of our days in New York. Having a break mid trip from eachother really helps. Not that there are any issues, just time out always comes like a welcomed tonic from Mary Poppins!!
After doing nearly 80 shows you would thing there would be little need for rehearsal for the tour. However, you would be surprised how much you forget in such a short o espaço of time. This on topo, início of the fact that there are one or two new songs in the show. All keeps us fresh and on topo, início of our game. We worked till 10 then straight to cama as we had an appearance on raposa TV this morning. Getting collected from the Hotel at 6 is never funny. One eye looking at the other and trying to come out with sensible respostas is always tough on tv, but this morning was even tougher. Vitamins galore and a cup of chá and all set for another dia rehearsing. We head back to Long Island. Dress rehearsal tonight, so full on till 10!
Finally I heard today that "If I Could Cry" is going to be released as a single in a matter of days. This is the first time I have released a single and am very apprehensive. Though pressure was being put on me so here it comes! I do hope people enjoy it, but either way, i am proud of it as I recorded it in Abbey Road and used the same mic that John Lennon used during his time with the Beatles. It is the título track from a show called "Sleeping Beauty" which will be coming to stage on the West End seguinte year.
Anyway, must go as I am due on stage to go through my new song for CT. Keep well peeps!
Ciao for now my loves, my doves, my eggs!!!!
