  • David’s Daily Digital Dollop – Dollop 218 – Crash, Bang, Very Nearly No Dollop

    Download the audio version of today’s Dollop here http://media.blubrry.com/dollop/davideagle.co.uk/wp-admin/dollops/dollop218.mp3 Apologies if there is anyone who religiously waits for these Dollops to be released everyday, only to be disappointed when a Dollop comes in a couple of hours late. The reason for today’s late arrival is due to Katherine, who has read every single Dollop and…

    Download the audio version of today’s Dollop here http://media.blubrry.com/dollop/davideagle.co.uk/wp-admin/dollops/dollop216.mp3 The lady from Canmore would be disappointed in me today, as due to having gone 24 hours without sleep and my brain being rather addled as a result, I made loads of typos just typing the title of today’s Dollop. We arrived back in England earlier…

    Download the audio version of today’s Dollop here http://media.blubrry.com/dollop/davideagle.co.uk/wp-admin/dollops/dollop215.mp3 I got another surprise comment in my inbox yesterday. It was from someone based in Canmore, where we were playing over the weekend, responding to yesterday’s Dollop about the woman who was intrigued by me being able to type without looking at the keyboard or screen.…

  • David’s Daily Digital Dollop: Dollop 214 – I’ve Got The Key

    Download the audio version of today’s Dollop here http://media.blubrry.com/dollop/davideagle.co.uk/wp-admin/dollops/dollop214.mp3 I was writing yesterday’s Dollop backstage at Canmore Festival. While I was writing, a woman came up to me and enthusiastically enquired about how I am managing to use my laptop, given that I am blind. I explained to her that there is a voice that…

  • David’s Daily Digital Dollop: Dollop 213 – The Canadian Confusion Continues

    Download the audio version of today’s Dollop here http://media.blubrry.com/dollop/davideagle.co.uk/wp-admin/dollops/dollop213.mp3 There’s been yet another ill-researched and confusing write-up about our group. In the Canmore Festival programme, which we are playing this weekend, they get all the details about us right, and describe our sound as “largely unaccompanied with occasional minimal accompaniment.” But then, somehow, despite having…

  • David’s Daily Digital Dollop: Dollop 212 – Dolloping From A Horse

    Our Canadian adventure continues with a horse ride through the woods of Banff. On our journey, we hear local tales, including a story about a cursed mountain, there’s some interesting mule facts, and there’s some lovely authentic horse-based ambience, including horses pissing and farting. Oh yes, that’s right, pissing and farting horses; these Dollops just…

    Download the audio version of today’s Dollop here http://media.blubrry.com/dollop/davideagle.co.uk/wp-admin/dollops/dollop211.mp3 We’ve just been to the bank. This is the first Canadian bank I’ve ever been in, so I don’t know if this is common in Canada, but upon entering the place we were handed a free cup cake. Then we were brought to a desk with…

  • David’s Daily Digital Dollop: Dollop 210 – In Which We Talk To A Thin Fat Man, A Fictitious Attractive Girl And A Confused Songwriter

    Download the audio version of today’s Dollop here http://media.blubrry.com/dollop/davideagle.co.uk/wp-admin/dollops/dollop210.mp3 Last night’s gig was really good. It turns out that the reason it was called a Celtic Country night was because there was a band on before us who played Country. It seems as if in Canada and America, the word Celtic is used as a…

  • David’s Daily Digital Dollop: Dollop 209 – A Dollop About A Lollop

    Download the audio version of today’s Dollop here http://media.blubrry.com/dollop/davideagle.co.uk/wp-admin/dollops/dollop209.mp3 We’ve had quite a few days off on this tour. This is because most of our bookings are at festivals which take place on the weekends, with the occasional gig in between. Obviously it doesn’t really make sense to keep popping home, given that home is…
