Friday Night in the City – Megan Black 29/08/2025

Friday Night in the City – Megan Black 29/08/2025

I had a more laidback night out than perhaps some of the more recent nights out I’ve had during the summer. The gig in question was not on the agenda for me until a few weeks back. My friend Ronnie McGhie invited me along as his ‘plus one’ for the show. The show in question…

A Change in Attitude?

A Change in Attitude?

I’ve been staying off Facebook more and more these days. Even more so at the moment, for as much as I appreciate the “Taormina Team” all being excited and ridiculously enthusiastic about being over there for those final shows, it will be all I’ll see if I open up Facebook and dare step in. I…

The Bellahouston Breakdown – A Long Vlog Post (Sorry!)

The Bellahouston Breakdown – A Long Vlog Post (Sorry!)

Sorry for the vid – I felt like dissecting it all this way instead of taking hours to compile a written post. I know the vlog posts aren’t to everyone’s liking, so to save you the pain, the condensed summary is: Yes & Maybe – great! Hamish Hawk – you know I can wax lyrical…

Release Date for Kerr/Burchill Memoir Our Secrets Are The Same

Release Date for Kerr/Burchill Memoir Our Secrets Are The Same

News of the release date of the Jim Kerr/Charlie Burchill memoir (which can fall under the genre of “creative non-fiction”) is Thursday 2 October 2025. At least that is the date given on Amazon for its release. More details can be seen HERE on the tax-evading Bezos-founded book shop. It is an interesting title; named…

Bucket List Gig – 50 Years In The Waiting

Bucket List Gig – 50 Years In The Waiting

Last week I had seen that Suzi Quatro would be out on the road touring in 2026. For the past few years I have really wanted to go and see her. She was my very first musical hero, back when I was a wee wean. She hasn’t been to Scotland for her past couple of…

Kerr-Plug

Kerr-Plug

On Friday, STV will be airing an interviewed recorded with Jim Kerr on their What’s on Scotland program at 7pm BST. A big old plug for the show at Bellahouston Park it seems. Very kind of STV to oblige in such a way. More news on the interview after airing. Stay tuned…

A Spin Of Nostalgia

A Spin Of Nostalgia

I have vinyl listening sessions when the mood takes me. I usually listen to two or three albums in a session. For yesterday’s session I had the firm idea of listening to Hamish Hawk’s Heavy Elevator and from there I was going to see where the mood took me. Most likely a David Bowie album…

The Anchoress Rocks, Stuns and Shines in Glasgow

The Anchoress Rocks, Stuns and Shines in Glasgow

I really don’t think it is hyperbole to state that this show had been one of the most highly anticipated – especially for Scottish fans of The Anchoress – for some time. The last time Catherine had played solo in Glasgow was at the Royal Concert Hall in 2017 as support for Simple Minds on…
