Trust me I am no idiot and think about it, it's your future you are
dealing freezing cold. Inadequate living conditions and high rental
and buying prices of flats and houses etc. and also and mainly THE
PRICE OF NORMAL FOOD which we take for granted here in Australia.

I know, but i like Bretain, it's important for my musicians carrer!!

London is not a cheap city, but is not that bad.

Ciao




Just do it! Come on, bit of rock'n'roll, take a risk, follow your dream,
YOU NEVER KNOW.

Hopefully you have some savings to get you going. In the meantime, move
over here, go to a hostel (£10 a night in places like the Dover Castle),
maybe even start busking (you can busk legally on certain spots in the tube
now). Go to loads of free music events (every Wednesday there's a magazine
called TIME OUT and it lists loads of free events) and make connections.
Obviously it'll be easier when you start learning English, but you are
going to learn English quicker if you do it the hard way and go into the
deep end, so to speak.

If you find it hard to make new friends, and your money is running out,
there's a big Italian squat scene in North London (Islington area), loads
of houses that are squatted and not being used by the authorities, and
loads of Italians AND musicians there. Try and make some friends, find some
band-mates.

Buy mags like NME and Melody Maker, scour the classifieds and see who needs
musicians. Do it! It'll be an adventure. If you sit in Naples wondering
about it, you'll never know, will you!!

Welcome to London.

Good Lord! You're still posting here after all this time?
