Please Stop Trying To Invalidate My Feelings! ‘Oh Jungleland’ Live And What It Means To Be A Fan

Please Stop Trying To Invalidate My Feelings! ‘Oh Jungleland’ Live And What It Means To Be A Fan

I can’t help how I feel. For the most part now I am staying quiet because as soon as a speak my mind and express how I feel I get all the crap retorts of akin to “I don’t hear what you hear,” “Just be lucky to get what you’re getting – they’re not getting…

New Hamish Hawk Release – Plus EP Coming Out In September

New Hamish Hawk Release – Plus EP Coming Out In September

On Friday morning there was a teaser on Hamish’s socials about news coming along on Monday. We were then informed that a new cover would be getting its first airing on Steve Lamacq’s show on BBC 6 Music and just before 6pm the tune dropped. And sooo like Hamish, it was a curveball to be…

The Anchoress Rocks, Stuns and Shines in Glasgow

The Anchoress Rocks, Stuns and Shines in Glasgow

I really don’t think it is hyperbole to state that this show had been one of the most highly anticipated – especially for Scottish fans of The Anchoress – for some time. The last time Catherine had played solo in Glasgow was at the Royal Concert Hall in 2017 as support for Simple Minds on…

The American at 44 – A Song That Never Loses Its Appeal (or relevance)

The American at 44 – A Song That Never Loses Its Appeal (or relevance)

Next Thursday sees the 44th anniversary of the release of ‘The American’ as the first single produced by Simple Minds under then new record label, Virgin Records. Coincidentally, it’s the eve of the start of the U.S. leg of the band’s continuing Global Tour – which for this part of the tour appears to be…

Ist Ist On Fire In Edinburgh and the Stag And Dagger Mixed Bag

Ist Ist On Fire In Edinburgh and the Stag And Dagger Mixed Bag

This post is going to be an amalgam of two gigs that I attended over the weekend(ish). The first gig I went to was to see Ist Ist at The Caves in Edinburgh last Thursday. It’s a venue I hadn’t been to before. Easy to get to from Waverley station. The Caves is located towards…

Night One – Santiago, Chile

Night One – Santiago, Chile

It seems as though things went well for the first gig in Santiago last night. Here are a few videos from YouTube that attendees recorded and uploaded. It’s good to see from the videos I saw that Kerr is at least trying to concentrate more on delivering a vocal performance rather than trying to dart…

Two Gigs Last Week – I’m Knackered

Two Gigs Last Week – I’m Knackered

I don’t have the energy I used to have even two years ago, so doing two gigs in one week – travelling nearly 800 miles over this past week on top of the gigs themselves has taken its toll on me. But it was more than worth it to see two of my most favourite…

Vinyl Revival – In My Room

Vinyl Revival – In My Room

Even though I have still been purchasing vinyl when finances have allowed, I haven’t listened to vinyl much at all over the past few years. We have one turntable in the house, a Rega Planar 3 that my Other Half bought in 1983, back in the days where there was no such thing as “designed…

Hamish Headlines at the Harbour

Hamish Headlines at the Harbour

Another new show for the calendar. Until recently, my gig calendar was looking quite sparse from July onwards but that’s starting to change now. Firstly, due to the recent announcement of Zoe Graham’s two headline shows in Edinburgh and Glasgow (I have Glasgow booked and will book Edinburgh when finances allow). Secondly, the news via…
