May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Or should that be “memorabilia MOUNTING”? I have made an acquisition for the first time in MONTHS! I’ve had Minds memorabilia collecting on hold for some time. And I’ve so desperately wanted to add things to my collection and share them here. This is just one thing, for now, and once it arrives in the…
Sometimes it comes really easy and after just a short play…something develops, takes shape and is there before I know it. Other times (like tonight)…I build layer upon layer upon layer…add things, remove things, change things. Get a sense of what I want, but lose perspective trying to find it. That…nothing ever is quite right….
I know I shouldn’t laugh..but just, holy fuck…this cracked me up and I need the laughs…and the reminder that – nobody’s perfect (esp. me) and that IT’S OKAY to be a fuck up…and as a good friend said to me…that, maybe I’m being too hard on myself. Hard NOT to be hard on yourself when…

Anyway…this one tonight really was just a basic…
Sorry, Cherisse! Forgive me for stealing this bit…but come on! If I don’t record them…unless you share them on your main IG timeline, these things disappear, so I had to grab it. It’s Bowie talk, after all (though I still say Stage is a better live album…I’m not gonna argue with him and Charlie, and…
Yeah, there he is…that geeky boy. Such a turn off… *rolls eyes* Playing with toys and just…swivelling about on a chair like he’s Christine bloody Keeler (only with clothes on *makes ‘bad luck’ clicking fingers motion*). (Pics: not sure on the first, but the other two are Janette Beckman ??)
Such a fab and fun interview. Jim was having second thoughts about the “you turn me on” line in Alive And Kicking?! After all the subsequent sniggering about the “you’ll follow through” line and your (now obvious) reluctance to sing it…perhaps that should have been the concern?! Lol And…erm…I can safely say that MANY a…
