May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Here’s Jim in brief conversation with Ken Bruce on BBC Radio 2 this morning, discussing tomorrow’s Biggest Weekend gig in which they’ll be performing at Scone Palace in Perth. Get them “taps aff”! (A girl can dream…)
My favouritest photo ever taken. The best day. Dreams can come true. Never really believed it until then…
It’s just THREE DAYS away now. Oh…and he would HAVE to bring up Iggy, then drop in a mention of cockfighting and I was just SSSOOO itching to say something! Lol. But…well, I resisted. At least I’d never say it on SMO! Here on the blog is a different matter! I mean, seriously…Jim Kerr mentions…
