Metamorphosis

Hold onto your seat.

The Negotiators are dissolving (have dissolved, actually, by the time this post was actually posted). Outside interests, other commitments, musical evolution, all played their role in the eventual process. Maybe we'll talk about it one day...

But it's not all over. Nancy and Steve still play in the Negotiators Duo. Click here for details of their next gig at the Excelsior on Friday August 31st. Then they play up at Burra on 14th September. It's an ongoing thing.

I gather Barry is returning to the dreams of suburbia and the needs of those close to him.

Chis, well, watch this space. The music ride is certainly not over for him. Will try and keep you informed.

Steve follows his passion. Besides the Duo gigs with Nancy he's seriously jamming with a couple of other bands who play hard gaslight rock.

And me? I hope to play more on the classical again, get a few musical thoughts of my own out there. Might even become part of another 'originals outfit', perhaps working with Nancy and a couple other faces that many of you, dear readers, might recognise.

And a special thanks to Nancy, Mark, Ben, Dave, Terry, John, Sox, Rob, Steve, Barry and Chris (and all the others who jammed with us at practice, on stage or just plain old rocked up to play with us. You know who you are).

It's been a hell of a ride so far. Watch this space to see what happens next...
