I won my heat last night in the singing competition, so through to the national finals. Thankfully, it's also being held at the same place, so the winners from all the other pubs will be heading down (or up) to Swindon as well.
So if anyone would like to come along to support in March, I'll be singing for a £500 prize to go towards our honeymoon (a bit of shameless, X-Factor style sob story there ;D ).
The pub owner also asked me if I would do some paid gigs there and at other pubs in the chain as well which was a bonus.

So... Anyone coming down then to watch?
This thread is useless without a video of you singing. ;)
There's a vid on here somewhere of him singing Robbie Williams that I recorded at sue's party ages ago. Was damn good

I've been having a play with the multitrack recorder as I'm putting an album together of acoustic covers.
I wanted to experiment a bit at home first though before I go into the studio. I've done about 6 or 7 tracks at home.
If anyone wants a listen, here's my cover of everybody hurts

The money is going half towards the wedding, and half towards getting some kit set up to start doing acoustic pub gigs :)
