But The Tune Ends Too Soon For

Touring Is What You Make It. I Like To Organise As Much As Possible Myself.

All The Time I Was Playing The Flute, The Lines, The Solos, The Riffs, The Construction, Were Based On My Guitar Skills. I Did Not Play The Flute To Exploit Its Natural Faculties, But I Used It As A Surrogate Guitar.

I Suppose When I Started Playing Guitar, It Was The Means To An End. I Never Thought Of Myself As A Fully Fledged Guitar Instrumentalist. And My Early Excursions On The Electric Guitar Were Curtailed When Eric Clapton Came On The Scene, And I Decided I Was Never Going To Be In The Same Arena As A Clapton Or A Peter Green.

As A Musician, Life Is Not Over Just Because You Are Getting Older, And So I Find Retirement A Very Frightening And Dark Thought.

There Seems To Be An Inclination Among Rock Musicians To Be Very Carefree With Money, But I Negotiate The Best Flight And Hotel Deals On Our Tours To Maximise The Band's Income - I Don't Want Too See Too Much Taken Off The Top Line.
