31 Days til Mottober!

I can't believe that Mottober is only one month away!

Welcome to my blog. I will be leaving for London on the 29th of September on the first leg of "The Journey".
I will fly to Toronto and spend the night at my parents house in Stoney Creek. My friend Mark and I will meet up the next morning and head to the airport where we will leave for London together.

Mark and I have been Mott the Hoople fans from the day I first brought home the Live album in 1975. I put the record on and played it for several of our friends but Mark and I were the only ones to "get it" and the two of us have been hooked ever since.

I don't know what internet access I will have in London, but I hope to update the blog at least daily and I will report on the four reunion shows we will be attending. Unfortunately we booked our plane tickets before the 4th and 5th shows were announced and are leaving for home the Tuesday of the final show.

I hope you will check in to my bog daily in Mottober. I will report back on events as they happen and try to re live the excitement in the blog as best I can.
