A Voice For Radio? (If Not A Face For It!)
UPDATE: Direct links now as the “listen again” option has expired on the Pulse 98.4 website. I thought I’d just stick this post to the top of the blog for the next few days, as this will definitely be a highlight of 2021 for me – having Ronnie ask me to do this and be…

Happy Anniversary – New Gold Dream!
In the Simple Minds world, album release anniversaries are like buses – they all seem to come along at once! Lol Take yesterday, for example.

Ronnie talking about me appearing on his show next week. It’s really real now! Gah!!!
Waxing Lyrical On The Airwaves
This is probably going to be the biggest aspect of the whole Sons And Fascination/Sister Feelings Call celebration, from my own personal viewpoint, than anything else I could have imagined. (Bar the band announcing some last minute gig going on in Glasgow for it. Settle down! I’ve heard NOTHING – I’m just dreaming!) What are…
