Ronnie Gets Billy “On the Pulse”
Last Wednesday, our Minds fan and local radio legend, Ronnie McGhie, had non other than Billy Sloan on his show for Pulse 98.4. It was two hours of pure live music-loving blethering as only two chatty Glaswegian men could. I dare say both men are “professional gasbags”. Lol. What was so evident is how much…
The Anchoress Gig Review (06/10/2023) and The London Half-Weekend
This is a LONG review – not just of Catherine’s gig but of the following 24 hours we had in London. Music, art and food! Strap yourselves in!
Collectable Clatter
I can’t remember sharing this at the time, I think I was keeping it all hush hush until it appeared in the Classic Pop magazine, and by then I probably was more excited about featuring in the magazine to think of showing the collection off with more clarity. These photos were taken two years ago…
Beauty By Kelvinbridge
Had a lovely afternoon out in the West End yesterday, by Kelvinbridge. Looked in this posh home decor place called Galletly Tubbs. Lovely stuff, but OH MY WORD – the prices! A place for window shopping ONLY, for us riff raff! Lol Then went and had some food at Sips And Baker further along the…

Some Fun By The Fringe
A review of the weekend will come. Probably not the biggest thing….we’ll see. In the meantime, upon leaving the venue where Bruce Findlay’s talk with Graeme Thomson took place…this happened (see photo). I was about to cross the road and literally almost bumped into him. I then pointed at him and said “you’re Tim Vine.”…

The Return of Kerrsday Thursday?
Considering the content on this blog is somewhat lacking, with a few circumstances accounting for that … I would like to try and keep SOME kind of activity going here! So I have decided to rekindle the old Kerrsday Thursday by sharing some of the phots I have enjoyed seeing from this year’s tour so…
The ‘Family’ and the Black Sheep
I wish I could believe this. I wish it felt this way for me, but it rarely has. There is a distinct and marked bias towards fans that have been around for a long time. To espouse the notion that there isn’t…? I myself don’t see it. I entered the Simple Minds fanbase with a…
