From Justin: My Favourite Places
Posted on 09/01/2006I hesitate to say that Paris, Rome, London and New York are my favourite places, because places where you feel at home, or that you belong, are as much in the heart as in an exact location on a map. But, they are my favourite cities and I love spending time in each of them….
From Justin: Ireland
Posted on 06/01/2006As I was walking into the Point arena in Dublin a couple of weeks ago for the ‘War of The Worlds’ tour, a voice called out to me ”Justin, ’tis yourself, great to see you”. It was nobody I knew, but he knew the music all right, and the phrase is so charming and friendly…
From Justin: Great Yarmouth
Posted on 05/01/2006In 1965, when I was working with Marty Wilde, we did a summer season at the Aquarium Theatre in Great Yarmouth, which was at the time a very popular holiday resort on the East Coast of England. There were lots of theatres in Great Yarmouth in the 50’s and 60’s, and all through the summer…
From Justin: Martin D 28
Posted on 01/01/2006As Neil Young says in his Prairie Wind album “This old guitar aint mine to keep/It’s mine to play for a while”. The guitar he uses on the song looks to me like a Martin D 28. The same model, but even older, than the one I have used on every album since 1969. There…

From Justin: Back from ‘Down Under’
Posted on 05/01/2005May, 2005 I’m just back from our trip “down under” and wishing all the beautiful places and warm and interesting people of the Southern Hemisphere weren’t quite so far away. I did manage to go via South Africa on the way out to see a friend in Cape Town. What a beautiful place. It’s not…
From Justin: My Version of the Moody Blues Story
Posted on 03/01/2005March, 2005 Just when I’m beginning to believe Spring might be on its way, I find myself talking with friends in Australia who are getting ready for Winter which will begin to arrive around the same time we do. The last time we were “down under” was in February/March of 1987, and in the last…
From Justin: “So much has happened in my life”
Posted on 12/01/2004December, 2004 So much has happened in my life and professionally in the last few months since the show in Monaco. Because of the buzz around the Monaco gig, France 3, the Television Channel, wanted to do a piece on me and my life here, which I eventually did a week or so ago. Some…

From Justin: France
Posted on 08/01/2004August, 2004 I do hope everyone who travelled to Monaco made it back home OK, and that all of you who came enjoyed the South of France and The Principality. I can’t begin to tell you what your presence meant to me. The Salle des Etoiles was truly lifted by your enthusiasm and feeling for…
