Chapter 94. Twelve thousand to go in Blackburn, Lancashire.

Bit of a hotch-potch of a chapter this one. A Lancashire Hotch-Potch* if you will.

As you may know by now, I had to rush off to sign a lot of pre-order copies of An Hour Before It's Dark so they can be prepped & ready in time for the despatch date in early March.

In honour of that (and after the initial 10 minutes of ramble) we chatted a bit about the new album, namely in the context of playing it live, the early reviews and the release of Murder Machines and the story behind the accompanying video.

And, in an effort to be better informed, we are going to discuss this weeks diary reading in Chapter 95. So I will have no excuse because, as you will hear, I have in fact read it.

Love'n'throwing shapes in a cupboard.

About the Podcast

The Corona Diaries
Steve Hogarth
Lead singer of Marillion, father, hippy, punk, soul singer, progressive rockstar (wtf!), defender of the faith, voice of reason in a world gone crazy...

...and now podcaster.

Join me as I talk about my life and what is rambling around in my head.

Along the way I will focus on some of the stories that have shaped my career and my life, as well as reading from my diaries and offering my take on the wider world.

Stay safe,

h

P.S I began this journey just as CoVid-19 took hold and changed our lives, possibly forever, so it seems apt to reference that in the naming of the podcast.

I have been tinkering with audio since my mid-teens, recording songs & producing content for friends.

Post university I embraced the world of retail, firstly in supermarkets and later in & around the music instrument industry.

After 20 years or so, I took a sideways step into podcasting and began a venture called ashortstories, which helps in the development & production of podcasts for anyone that has a story to tell.
