**JUSTIN THORNE LIVE AT THE SPLASH THIS SUNDAY (31st OCTOBER)**

The Acoustic Music Club was cancelled last night, so in a quest to find some live music, I popped in to the Blue Note Bar and was delighted to find that Bob Vincent and Kevin Pallot were playing.

They make a great team, very funny (especially Bob) and it was great to hear some original music and see a couple of very confident and capable performers live. Bob is very folky/tribal and Kev has a boy-band voice but with a rocker's heart, together I think they are very good.

They fancied a break (to drink more red wine) so asked me to get up and play a few, so I played Volcano, Diamonds on the Inside and Sold.

Written a new tune, which is funky but with a chilling chorus:

I'm so cold, son

I've been cold and I've been hard
I may have been a less than open soul, no apologies
I've been broke and I've been made
I've lied and stole to get you where you are, I'd do it all again

I'm not about to break down, without the rain we'd never see the sun
but I'm cold son
I'm so cold son
I'm cold son
I'm so cold son... cold son

All my life I've never shed a tear
I've never dropped down to my knees
through you I know that I'll live on

I pulled you down I picked you up
I made you strong and now you're on your own, you know where I am
I find it hard I find it strange, to tell you what I feel, too late for regrets

I'm not about to break down, without the rain we'd never see the sun
but I'm cold son
I'm so cold son
I'm cold sonI'm so cold son... cold son

All my life I've never shed a tear
I've never dropped down to my knees
through you I know that I'll live on
