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…
Last night (Oz time) the guys were playing on my home turf. I’ve never seen a gig at the Hordern Pavilion – and if there was one gig I would have wanted to see there, then… Great reviews again from fans on SMO. Will post pics and pro reviews as they come in. One fan…
I am starting to theorise as to what we may get in the next several months. We can safely assume that the release of album number…17? 18? I always like to think of Sons and Sister as separate entities, so that would make it 18, in my eyes (and if you count Neon Lights –…
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…
Wow! It really sounded like a wonderful night. Oz fans are RAVING! Here are two fabulous photos posted by kind permission from photographer (and mega fan!) Sue Mezzalira. Thank you, Sue 🙂 More on the gig to come! News, reviews, pics…

Can’t hear it (can’t play it where I currently am) but I HAD to share it! UPDATE: Erm…I’m sorry about the amount of swearing you heard playing that! Lol. Oh, the irrepressible Ian “Molly” Meldrum – you FUCKING LEGEND! (Ahem…as you were, everyone!) Molly having a chat to Jimmy Kerr #simpleminds #mollymeldrum ? pic.twitter.com/2ciDhMe5E8 —…
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…
An extract from a rather catty review by Hannah Francis of The Age (Melbourne’s daily newspaper). I am sorry, Ms Francis, but I think you will find that Catherine Anne Davies and Sarah Brown are two of the most incredible vocalists going round. Perhaps you are merely jealous you are a two-bit reviewer for a…
