Do You Come Here Often?
Hello
Most of you will now know that
the title of my new album is named after a corner in
Sheffield where lovers used to meet. Many people are
alive today because love bloomed there. I'd be grateful
if you could contribute too, with stories of how you
met your partner or if you know any great stories about
how other people you know met, the dafter or more romantic
the better. Maybe how your mother and father or grandparents
met?
You can email your stories to
us at richard.hawley1@virgin.net,
just include 'Do You Come Here Often?'
in the message header.
Alternatively, there will be
notebooks passed around the audience at the UK shows
and some will be left on the merchandise stand. Write
your story in one of the notebooks and pass it on to
someone else so that they can write theirs. If you're
left with one at the end of the night, please return
it to the merchandise stall.
We intend to publish some of the best stories next
year.
Many thanks
Love,
Hawley
