Jamiroquai guitarist Rob Harris posted a message on his MySpace blog a few days ago saying that the band had recently done a soundcheck for the Gig In The Sky - which will be taking place at the end of February.  Well, here's a little more information courtesy of drummer Derrick McKenzie...

"We are all excited about doing this gig on the plane especially Rick [Pope] as he has new mini desk to try out and it does look fab I must say so myself, and I will be playing the smallest kit on earth I think, lucky me going back to my roots of playing the way I learnt years ago, with just bass drum, snare drum, hi hat, one crash cymbal and a ride ha ha ha!!!!!"

"I had the pleasure of going down with some of the guys on Monday [22 January] to the airport to have a run through to see that all was working well, and that all the technical stuff would work.  It went well and we managed to have a good play and sound check.  Of course our equipment will be truly scaled down so it will be a lot of fun to do.  I love these types of gigs as you can experiment with the stuff you are doing.  I am truly looking forward to this and playing music with the lads!!!!"
