That's it, days are shortening, degrees and leaves are dropping, winter is setting in and I'm feeling it. Happens every year and I dont know why I'm surprised when it does, I've written songs about it, poems about it, and moaned about it for many a cycle.
Bring on the Winter blues!
Had to take my self for a stroll last night to reflect on the past season and pull out the good bits and turns out there's very little negative to filter out, a bit of rough but generally been a sick summer.
Loads of vw shows and music festivals, video release, EP launch, bang tidy weather leading to some great days playing to the streets and meeting folks up and down the country.
I cant complain.
Since the last post I rocked up and played my last vw show of the year at Grillnchill and have to say definitely one of my favourites. Hosted by the PaintScrapers vw club and located at Hop Farm, an awesome vibe created by a really cool bunch of people.
Already booked in for next year so get involved.
Shortly after Josh (Sass) and I supported Janet Devlin at Camdens Jazz Cafe, A real honour and a giggle.
Probably the nicest sound guy I've ever come across and a great crowd.

Pickle is still having transmission issues which is really getting on my tits now as I've been attempting to rectify this issue since the beginning of august.
If any one wants to help or can recommend some vw t25 genius then give me a holler.
So what's coming up?
Got another video due for release at the end of this week with a little luck.
It' for a track called "My Inspiration" from the "Repeat What I See" EP, A kind of fight club meets raging bull style video that I'm really stoked for and hope you guys will be too. Head to https://www.facebook.com/TomDibbMusic for a look at some still shots to get the vibe and there is a free download of the track available from www.tomdibb.com

Pickles Northern adventure tour has gone down the crapper a bit I'm afraid as there was a bit of a change in management and with the state of the van I'm not sure she'd make the 5000 mile round trip we were originally intending. How ever the dates booked are still going ahead and are listed on the website so fear not.
Here's a little something the Sass and I threw together for ya the other day, enjoy!
