Self Inflicted…
I hate it when it starts to feel like this again…

New Home – New Shrine
Been putting up some of my Simple Minds shrine this evening. It’s slowly taking shape. Much more to go but I am happy with how it is looking so far… The halcyon days…
Minds Music Monday – Silent Kiss
Yesterday saw the second anniversary of the release of Walk Between Worlds. Of course it was the day that Jim and Charlie appeared at the HMV in Argyle Street for an album signing. I was so, sooo nervous! Lol. Silly, really, as I had met them both before already, but the more it goes on…
Pleasantly Disturbed – New Hanging Around Books Release!
A new release by Hanging Around Books sees images taken in 1978 by Laurie Evans feature in the book. I feel ssooo bad as I made the horrendous assumption that Laurie is a man! My apologies, Laurie. I’ve been waiting a while on this one as I had contacted Laurie some time back from seeing…

I’m Done…
The last thing I’ll ever post to the wall. Might as well have kept my arse blocked if I can’t even put the odd jovial thing on the wall without it being deleted. Anyone would think I am dissing the band and telling them they’re shit and they should retire and their songs are shit…
Nae Summer Nights – For Summer Sessions

At Least It’s ‘On Topic’….
So…two of my recent posts to the SMO visitor wall get deleted for…whatever reason. Okay. Fair enough. But this gets to stay? No comeback from Jim? Nae nuthin’? Well, it’s “on topic”, I suppose. At least they’ve been allowed to express an opinion… To each their own.
And Just When You Think He’s Coming Back…
He’s not. And it all falls quiet again. WHY do I miss this man so much? Why am I so goddamn fucking clingy?! And why am I going to 11 gigs? And flying to the other end of the world for three of them? And why is March so far away? (It isn’t really…it’s just…
