I plead - Not guilty...

Yesterday I got stopped by the police. They asked Steve (my pianist) to pull over and step out the car. Have you ever had that feeling where you know you haven't done anything wrong (well at least nothing comes to mind) but you're feeling guilty anyway. I won't go through all the details (they thought Steve wasn't insured to drive it, but he was) but after about 20 mins of chatting to two quite charming policeman we were finally able to begin the 5 hour trek to Leeds for the YES WE CAN showcase. Stuck in traffic, 15 mins before arrival (according to the sat-nav) I received a phone call saying that I was on in 20 mins!!! After running around Leeds University campus, keyboard in hand desperately trying to find the venue, we arrived and fortunately, the showcase was yet to begin. I was first act on. I really enjoyed it and the crowd did too! A girl came to speak to me after saying that she has been following my youtube videos for a year - I was so delighted. Back at the hotel, I watched the first two episodes of  'THE EVENT'. Awesome drama. I'm definitely hooked...

This is how I roll...

I ate the most delicious giant chocolate chip cookie just before heading on stage at  'Chloe's auction of promises' event. Mmm... I can still taste it....Great set, I love performing, which is helpful given I'll be doing tons of it this month! One could say that the real entertainment was the ''I can't believe what I'm seeing'' bidding war! They raised £2600 for Chloe's mission trip to Inda. I tell you the truth when I say there were hands permanently raised in the air, lol. I had to make an early exit. In need of a good nights sleep for our presenter auditions tomorrow - so excited!!!

p.s. Me, my guitarist (Raoul) and keys player (Steve) nipped to a kebab place after soundcheck (pls note: I did not order any food) and I was looking very out-of place-in my cocktail dress and heels. The strange looks I was receiving inspired this HIT song called, ''this is how I roll.'' We made it up there and then! I really liked it - my band aren't seeing it's full potential :(
