May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I’m not sure what point Sir was trying to make in his reply to me – but what I meant in reply to his initial post was – he made it sound like the gig was as special as a Glasgow gig. And I know those gigs (as far as HE is concerned) are REALLY…
I had a little three way convo today (if you could call it that) between Bruce Butler (whose involvement in the music industry I was BLINDLY IGNORANT OF at this point) and Harry Williams (who will probably, no doubt, turn out to be some award-winning music journalist/historian! KMN!) about Harry’s AMAZING review (of the A…
Stunning photos now with full photography credit! Awesome! See? Now that wasn’t so hard, was it? (Aimed squarely at those who flout it and removed the credited watermark the photographer had on his photo. Tsk tsk!)
Today has not been good (perhaps the odd ranty post gave a clue to that!). I need cheering up, so I am going to share this lovely photo by Ullstein Bild – for several reasons: 1) The 5×5 tour was frigging awesome (but I wasn’t a mega fan then – ETERNAL regret). 2) Stadtpark looked…
God, I am SSSOOO full of it! There’s no beating about the bush though, us Bruce’s and Sheila’s are pretty ridgy didge…even the daggy ones. And the drongos. Lol Translation: No word of a lie, Australian men and women are very honest, genuine people, even the not so fashionable and nerdy ones, and the silly/stupid…
OMG! Lol. I love the way this is worded. I do hope there was an orderly queue formed? Lol Damn! How much do I wish I was there now?!!! Lol Jim Kerr making love to the crowd #simpleminds #adayonthegreen #adotg https://t.co/sMMeD0YPGw — a day on the green (@ADayOnTheGreen) February 4, 2017
Super INSANELY ambitious – but I would LOVE to try and paint this. I love this picture. I don’t know exactly why. There’s just…an intimacy and I like the composition of it. I might regret it…but I will give it a go. Take my time. And if(!) it turns shit…I’ll paint over it. I mean…
So Sir titled the post-gig post on SMO. And it did sound perfect from his description. And on to Melbourne they go. I was looking on social media for pics and vids and came across this on Twitter. Not the best pics, but it was that great Aussie sentiment that made me giggle. I miss…
Perhaps Jim worked for Scarfolk Council back in the day? (When he was 13…) Lol. This one just instantly made me think of Sir’s catchphrase. For more information (and deadpan, dark humour) visit the Scarfolk Council web site
No more things to hang after this :-(( (though if Sir was to ever send back a signed copy of my Jean Genie print – I would most DEFINITELY make an exception! I live in eternal hope.) The one on the right is just a personal one. Some things I do are very definitely not…
