| my "unplugged" performance on BBC radio |
 |
|
I spent 2 hours making this blog post. I'm not about to repost it all in a forum thread so please check the recording and additional info at www.SageFrancis.net
I perform "The Baby Stays" and "A Hell of a Year" and "The Best of Times" with two acoustic guitarists.
give it a listen. Over a million people already have when we did it live. They said nice things. I became a trending topic on twitter in the UK because of it. The world changed. Serious.
www.SageFrancis.net has the goods. |

I also liked the last time I was there. A whole lot.
I did the spoken word performance at the Inkymole exhibit around Halloween in 2006. That was fantastic. |

Anyhow BBC set was very nice. |

That kicked some ass. Any chance we could get these as separate MP3s? |

Perhaps at some point. Not sure if I'll be able to come up with more stuff that's in a similar vein, at which point I'd like to have a full EP or LP size thang. For now I just wanted to let people hear it and see what they thought. |

I decided to perform my songs with 2 acoustic guitarists, Ally & Warren. We’ve never performed together so when we arrived at the studio we spent an hour rehearsing some ideas before taking them live to the air
