Crashing back down to earth

Crashing back down to earth

This is the first podcast in weeks, I took a short break while on tour, so I look back on that, how you end up living in this artificial bubble on tour, which almost feels like a pre-internet period! You have limited news and interaction online and end up forming real life social friendships and bonds, and then after a whirlwind few weeks you are back on the couch staring out the window at the rain. This is one thing but then the real news out there in this deep dark world not only bursts your bubble but stomps it into the ground, smashes it to dust and then sets fire to the dust. I wisely or unwisely step into the Middle Eastern situation to round things off with and try and place it in context with comments Irish people got back in the day....among loads of other dumb and random observations. I lost a lot of braincells on this last tour....and I barely had enough to go round
