May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Jim’s words within his post today (upon seeing Radiohead last night in Glasgow). Ah, well…that’s me out the window, then! To surround yourself with people and things that inspire? How would I ever fit that bill? I won’t. I am so full of self-doubt, I’m amazed he even gives me the time of day in…

More extras from Dublin – penultimate set of photos… I saw and felt quite a few similarities between Dublin and Sydney…it was the last thing I expected, actually. The day of gig No. 2.
