In the summer of 1978 I was on tour in Germany playing small concert halls and youth centers. I had a great time, especially because my Dad was travelling with me.
Just coming to the end of the tour I received a telegram (remember those days before mobile phones and internet?) The telegram read:

Fotosession Christmas Party album – Monday – 15.00 hrs – Hilton Hotel Schiphol – Dress in white.

As my last show was on Sunday it was going to be really close, plus…, I didn’t own anything remotely white…
We left Hannover very early on Mondaymorning, stopped off at a friend, borrowed his suit and arrived uncharacteristically on time only to discover they hadn’t finished the Christmas decorations and I had to wait for two more hours before the shoot began.

Merry Christmas!
Love Michael
