The plan for this week had been to continue the story of Ice Cream Genius, but then I got an email asking about the back story to the lyric for Estonia and it seemed somehow apt. That took us on a journey that also covered the remix undertaken by the Positive Light boys and the their slightly unusual working methods.
The diary section this week focuses on the later stages of the HiE tour. I find myself reminiscing about support act The Violet Hour (or Violent Hour, as it turned out) and agonising over the fate of a porcelain owl - possibly possessed by satan!
Stay safe, inmates...
