Hi Figsters,

So, where the Fig are we? when are we coming out? Will we look and feel the same? It’s been over a year since the last post. Terrible. But we were busy! Busy with getting the final mixes for the Fig Album completed. We want it to be right. We want it to bright. We want it to be tasty.

Then bad shit happened.

Cancer really does screw up plans like not much else. It screws up minds, families, friendships, income; assumptions… most things in fact, especially your health. So Fig… Fell silent.

But there is a new dawn. Health and hope are returning. A lightness of the soul, not felt for far too long, is cleansing.

Cut the pretentious twoddle man, where’s the figgin’ album? When’s yer next gig?
Well, Tim Fig is performing spoken word stuff at Underword on Monday 10th August, part of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival (Piano Bar, Frederick Street, Edinburgh). So come along! This will be T-Fig’s first time on stage since his illness, so your support would be greatly appreciated.

The album? Well, with a return to feeling good, will be a return to getting that done and dusted. So please watch this space for news.

And Fig gigs? Well we’ve got a lot of practicing to do, and chemotherapy has left T-Fig with numb fingers, which ain’t so good for twangin’ a geetar. But gig we will, when the time is right.

So the Figging continues!
Tim Fig’s fight continues too but HE WILL OVERCOME!

Keep happy, keep healthly.

Lots of love

Hoochie Fig.
