A nice bit of news to start the New Year. Pre-orders are now being taken for Big Big Train’s Blu Ray documentary about how they prepared for their return to live performance. It contains a mix of studio “live” performances and four songs from the momentous London shows back in August.

The hotel is booked and the train tickets are purchased. Everything is set for the journey to London in August to see Big Big Train. I’m quite nervous about attending the gig. There’s going to be a load of people in attendance that I’ve only ever “met” on Facebook and Twitter and the anxiety levels will be pretty high. I’m not really good in that kind of situation.
They’re all very nice people though so it’s bound to be a fantastic weekend.
