Softfocus of a big space with a short story read in bed.
Continued consideration is given to various methods of passing time and I try them all, at least once, in the hope that some of the s**t sticks, some of it has, for better or worse...
There was a need, great, to make a space for my own musical and artistic rambling having worked with many through the years as well as hearing and being inspired by many in my little and late, great bar 'Dr Drake's' (RIP)
This Myspace, belonging to me, Jim Ewen, is also home of 'TwoJoe Projects'; the umbrella name given to my business activities in art, solo and collaborative, music promotion, part time music management and perpetually intended record label.
A large mention is also give to the current live performance and song writing activities that happen with Andy Stephen and Phil Johnston collectively known as Tupelo Town Assembly. Originally forming a bulky part of Staccato Set we three, upon the kidnapping of the Zigmeitser, wondered the wilderness for some years learning new skills of performance and writing through meditating on all of musical history. We have now discarded all drivel and regrouped to make a monstrous Garage-Beat-blues-Rock n roll- fuzztastic noise.
Was lovely to see you the other day Jim! The Dark Knight was very good indeed! My EP launch shall now be on the 15th September at The Tunnels - stick it in your diary! :) xx

On Sunday night my solo comedy show will include a death defying balancing act, a bit of escapology, ventriloquism, impersonations and tales of raunchy promiscuous sex, drugs and rock n roll with a groupie slut, and a few stories about working with celebrities, cheers Biz .
