As we count down to Damian’s return to the stage, guitar in hand,  in Ireland, I’m excited to share my thoughts on another track from his debut album Mission Creep. And this time, it’s one where Damian plugs in the electric guitar. Let’s talk about Makin’ Plans.

But before we dive into Makin’ Plans, if you missed earlier posts in our Song of the Week series, you can catch up on the stories behind Zaragoza, She Comes, Never Judge A Man By His Umbrella, Harvest Moon., Wanna Grow Old In Paris, Such a Night, Soho Tango, and Pentonville Prison.

Throwback Thursday to Damian Lewis at Hoxton Hall

As we can’t wait for Damian to drop a single and make an announcement about his second album,  today’s Throwback Thursday is a fantastic evening at Hoxton Hall in March 2023 with Damian and his brilliant band.

I had a 48-hour lightning trip to London for fun with fan friends and a fantastic evening of music at Hoxton Hall in East End with the one and only Damian Lewis and his fabulous band. And when I asked my blog mate Gingersnap before my trip that whether she thought I was crazy because I am flying to London for 48 hours, I got this response.

“You’re not crazy. But you have a new name. Groupie!”

Seriously, how many times do you need to travel to see a musician in action to qualify as a groupie? 🙂

It was such a magical night and I am ready to tell you all about how our Ginger Elvis has ruled on stage and off – he has made time for everyone, his guests and his fans, after the gig. He had pictures taken, gave autographs as well as bear hugs.

-Damian Lewis

Well, ladies and gentlemen, exactly two years ago, I had a 72-hour lightning trip to London for a special weekend with fan friends and a fantastic evening of music at The Tabernacle London in Notting Hill with the one and only Damian Lewis. It was such a night with our Ginger Elvis rocking on the stage and off – he made time for everyone, VIPs and fans alike, after the gig.So please come join me in the beautiful and inspiring  music hall that is The Tabernacle London, and live or re-live (if you were lucky  enough to be there) every single detail from that glorious evening… And don’t get surprised that I am talking about A Spy Among Friends and The Radleys as Damian’s upcoming projects.
