Make Me A Mural
Wouldn’t it be awesome if he – and Charlie too…perhaps on a different building…had a mural in honour. If it’s good enough for Alex Harvey, Charles Rennie Mackintosh and Billy Connolly…

Race For Life Fundraising Target Met!
Today my £250 target was met, so…this means the Somebody Up There Likes You/Waterfront print will be given away. On Jim’s birthday, I will Facebook Live the drawing of the winner from the list of names of the £10+ donors. To all the donors so far, thank you! I am so happy to have met…
A Walkman?
I never had one. Not a genuine Sony Walkman anyway. And when I finally got a generic “portable cassette player” I just used it at home, for listening to music on the quiet. I never really went anywhere much. There was no need for me to want to listen to music “on the go”. Where…
Why I Love…Changeling
The dancefloor. Frigging hell! Did Simple Minds know how to fill it back in the day. I guess they still do to be fair. But let us rewind back to 1979. Rockfield Studios in the Welsh countryside. Five young men from Glasgow are in the studio making the followup to their debut album. An album…

Signing Over To UMPG
Not sure what this one will mean for the fans? More YouTube clip removals? More cracking down on some of the things that I do? Hey…who knows? Maybe someone from there would actually listen to me and I could get permission for use of lyrical content in my art? Pfffft! Yeah, sure. If I agree…

Drum Lesson And Practice – June 29th, 2019
Yesterday was the first tuition I’ve had in two months. Gareth was great. Started me back right from scratch, really. We went right back to basics. We worked on stick grip, rudiments, grooves and fills. I can’t really talk a lot about it…not really going into much detail. And it felt a lot to take…

Ruts DC – Pelton Arms, Greenwich – June 28th, 2019
Jumped on the tickets when it was first announced. At £10 a throw, they were not to be sneezed at. I thought Greenwich might be a bit of a pain to get to…but hey, the gig would be great so we’d cross that bridge on the day. Well, as it happened, we could get a…
