Conversation, Kimmel and a game of “Who’s that?”

Posted on January 30, 2025January 30, 2025 By Priptona No Comments on Conversation, Kimmel and a game of “Who’s that?”

Some SM news for you. Firstly, Mr Kerr was on a morning radio show on the SoCal Sound (southern California college radio – can’t believe college radio is STILL a thing!) with Nic Harcourt + Jet. Most of the usual twaddle with lots of selective memory band “history” thrown in for good measure. Fifteen minutes of fluff.

Then, if you wish to subject yourself to it, here is the “performance” on the Jimmy Kimmel live show. Once was enough for me, thank you! They somehow seemed to manage to ship Cherisse over for the occasion, but the rest of the “band?” Well, who knows what was going on there. So there are yet another two “who”s that?” stand-ins taking the place of Ged Grimes and …. I assume Erik Ljunggren will still be playing keyboards on this tour? Or…Gordy Goudie. I dunno – take your pick as to who was slotting in for whom??? I must admit I did a double take with the fill-in bass player thinking “why have they got Cherisse on bass?” Lol. She’s her sister from another mister, seemingly.

Anyway, brace yourselves – this is of Strictly Come Dancing proportions….

If I find any footage of the inane chat that took place with Mr Kimmel, I’ll upload that too.

Adios, amigos!
