May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
These photos are AMAZING! Taken of the band during their inaugural tour of Australia in 1981. I just wanted to share these seeing as it’s Kerrsday and the colour photos feature mainly Jim on his own.

I’ve recorded a vlog post airing how I’m currently feeling – mostly the dilemma I am feeling about what the bloody hell to do with this blog. I just don’t know any more…. (P.S. Despite the look of the video ident, you WILL be subjected to my awful face. Apologies in advance.)
