He's still doing the same stuff around the pub circuit. he did a set at
the Redan in Bayswater (w london) last week. Mostly the same poems
interspersed with stand up stuff. A little sad - although poems and
delivery are good as ever there's no decent material less than 15 yrs old.
He's been a junkie for years, at least since living with Nico.
