Infinitely Distracting

by Peter Loveday

Season 19

Pedalling madly towards the day

There is still some story to tell, so I guess there is no avoiding it, I will go on telling it. This won’t last forever, so best to make the most of it. (Song: "No Longer", from the album Through the Mirror)

Feasting on the night’s riches

Coming down after a performance... it's never easy. (Song excerpt: "Big Fish" — Tiny Town flexi-disc, 1983.)

Season 18

Soar in circles above the square

We have certainly travelled of late, back and forth across land and sea. (Song excerpt: "Big Fish" — Tiny Town flexi-disc, 1983.)

The ships that we set sail

Sound check, and soon those songs set sail. We've built them as strong as we can, now we must let them go, set them on their way.

A beast of burden

This improbable adventure advances.

The place to be

This is the place to be. What we make of it, is yet to see,

Our spirits lift

The bungalow falls silent, but soon the silence is interrupted by the soft sound of snoring, of grinding teeth, and of huffing and sighing. The intention was to confirm that the bunks were adequate, … apparently, they are.

When all is said and done

Eventually, with persistence, with perseverance, you get to your destination, in theory.

The way we make

There is nobody here but us on this particular stage, on this particular part of the stage, on this particular island, at this particular time of day. We walk at the side of the road, in search of our accommodation.

Loverboy, lost weekend, my ex-wife

We sight land at first light, an island resting on the sea, drawing near. (Song excerpt "Cloud song", from the album "The Faraway Near" - Peter Loveday)
