We’ve always had an Art School tag…I don’t even think there is an art school in Glasgow.
Jim Kerr, 1984 on Simple Minds
I do NOT believe for a single second he’d have said that! I mean, geez, the Glasgow School of Art is one of the city’s most famous buildings! They even played there in the early days as far as I am aware. If he said it, he was trying to be contrary and funny, which was obviously lost on the magazine! Lol
Also can I just say – the thing about him saying Chrissie being a friend – and more? Oh…I dream! Well, I dream JUST to be a friend. Geez! Just friendship would do. Anything else is beyond pie in the sky. “Friendship” is pie in the sky enough!
I took close up scans of the pics as well. Pretty sure the one of him holding the mic is one of Virginia’s.
I’m post some more as and when.
