From Auckland To The Norfolk Broads

Well, not quite. Norwich anyway. The University of East Anglia, in fact. I found myself on the hunt for something for someone last night and…going down the usual “rabbit hole” one invariably ends up at. I was on Twitter looking for relevant info to what I was searching for (no luck!) but I happened upon…

Flirty Kerr With Collett

I’ve been meaning to share this here. Someone posted it on the SMOG FB page and…well, look at the photo. Jesus, he’s such a flirt! God, I’d give anything! You beautiful man, Mr Kerr. I wish I didn’t adore you so much. I love the story behind the crane. I never even thought about it…

Birdsong, Fascination and Friendships

The post I did about “The Walking Experiment”. The one that FINALLY led me to finding the quote about the line from In Trance As Mission? The Alice In Wonderland “rabbit hole” of a post that took me what felt like FOREVER to sort out? Well it led me down yet another rabbit hole today….

Simple Minds – The First Three

Interesting retrospective review from these guys. Very brief and quite broad. Not even any praise for Pleasantly Disturbed on Life In A Day – which is a HUUUUGE oversight in my eyes. They don’t really get much into the nitty gritty of the albums…but if you have a spare 15 mins…

Kerr-oke Is The Real Thing

A backstage “post gig” sequence of photos that I first worked on years ago and decided to update. Jim’s holding a can of Coca Cola. Obviously it was at a point in time when he wasn’t too concerned with looking after his voice. I guess he was young and maybe didn’t foresee the band still…

Fangirl Treasure – Portobello Post-Punks Poster

The poster arrived today. It looks REAL good! I want it on the wall already but the current frames I have, it won’t fit in properly. I’ll lose detail, I think. It seems wider than the frame so I’d lose detail on Jim and/or Brian if I framed it in one of my current frames….
