My pal and I went up to Aberdare, proper up the Valleys, on a cold Friday night in torrential rain (luckily she was driving, not me) to see a Japanese Jam cover band, The Jexit, perform at the small but perfectly formed local pub The White Lion. Of course, I had to have a scribble. I started a new sketchbook too, a very tasty black clothbound A5 number with some embossing in gold on the front.


On the left, my first warm-up, sketch and my second scribble on the right.
I’m not a huge fan of The Jam, to be honest, but this band ROCKED the place – absolutely outstanding. These sketches are of the lead singer Yoshi Tokio, who was fantastic. They were all fantastic.
