May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Almost every day I feel the need to write. But I need to have a purpose. A reason. An objective. I’ve never been good with a blank page. Sitting at a piece of blank paper, pen in hand. Or sitting at a computer with a blank word processing page staring back at me. It’s taken…
I wish I was everything he is reflected right back, but I am the antithesis of all that he is. He is light, and he is beauty. All those Halloween pieces of work I made? They were just bits of fun. Meaningless guff! He’s not the devil, or DraKERRla, a fallen angel, or any of…
Today is the debut of this fine bit of merch! Wasn’t expecting this on Sunday night. Very lovely of Steve to offer me one of these fab shirts. Had their gig been going ahead, I’d be seeing them tonight in Glasgow. I’d have loved nothing better! Alas, it was not to be. Roll on December…
From the makers of Uncut magazine – a WHOLE 124 page special edition on the Velvet Underground, and their individual members.

Thanks to everyone who entered. There will be more giveaways to come, including one that I am VERY, VERY excited to announce which I think will have…
“Hello, hello – is anybody home?” I’m not sure anyone is today. I feel absolutely shattered. You see, I went to Edinburgh yesterday to see my second favourite band in the entire universe. It was a long way to go for what was barely a 30 minute set, but it had been so long since…
YES THEY DID! The badges I very gratefully received from a fellow SM fan in Vancouver were in multiples. I asked if they were okay with me giving some of the badges away and they were happy to allow me to do that. I didn’t want to come across as ungrateful for the wonderful, kind…
