h2. Favourite non-Jones gig
Jon Langford and Skull Orchard with the Burlington Welsh Male Voice Choir @ Hardly,Strictly Bluegrass Festival, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco 2008
h2. Favourite Jones song (and why)
Wishing It Away. Haunting, epic and seamless whilst referencing the greatest movie ever made.
h2. Favourite non-Jones song (and why)
Drowned In Wine ( Family ). Prog. rock, folk and heavy metal fused into 5 minutes of desperate genius.

Sounds cliched, but is really rather relevant given the current corporate epidemic.

h2. Any other non musical projects?
Fixing the gutters.
h2. What music is changing the world right now?
