Etc go POW - 2nd May - possibly already done the time you read this

Fresh off the press: Etc was enjoying prolonging their winter hibernation until a few minutes ago. Then a call came in that woke them up to the heat and dust of the day: a request that Etc plays tonight – Friday 2nd May 2008 – at Prince of Wales.

In keeping with Etc tradition, Etc automatically offered another act instead - in this case, Deserters. But when contacted, Zack –fresh into Singapore for this weekend’s giggery– was at the bar and claimed to be already too sozzled to play. So, in keeping with the Etc tradition of being rough and ready, Etc said: yes.

Hats off to new recruit Harvey (drums), who continues to pass Etc’s bootcamp tests with flying colours. He didn’t hesitate when asked about the gig – and had already begun to pack his drum-kit to bring to the venue as we spoke.

We’re due on at 9.30pm. That's less than three hours. Better get my stuff. Prince of Wales is in Singapore. It’s located at 101 Dunlop Street, Little India. Click round here for directions to P.O.W.

This could be a recipe for disaster.

How was it? It was preceded by my being treated like royalty because I'd suggested *you* for the Jeff Buckley show and they were thanking me muchly.

The show itself was fun. And then it was J.B. and then it was Substation. Which translates to hours and hours and hours of waiting around at venues or in Causeway traffic - and relatively short period spent actually playing.

No, I wasn't on the Malaysian train that derailed - so small mercies. I am afraid I will probably recognise the driver who got killed if i see a photo of him.
