The Glasgow Magic
Well, this is just a little bit awesome! Crowded House are gonna have to do a bloody good job next week to get near SM for best gig I’ve experienced (so far!) at the Hydro. Buzzing to see When You Come live though.

Someone’s Washing In The Shower…
Jim revealing that he washes just like every other man in the entire world – oxters, sack, crack. That’s it. 60 seconds. Done! Lol
Roll ‘VT’?
And when I say ‘VT’, I don’t mean Virginia Turbett. I am referring to a new song that was performed in Freiburg on Friday night. A song off the new album? Strange, for when it came to Walk Between Worlds, they kept things very close to their chests. I don’t think they were like that…
Warning: Melting Fangirl Alert!!!
I know I shouldn’t…but HOLY SHIT…Jim Kerr in 1981 is the most beautiful, most extraordinary thing I have ever seen in my life. (I still love you, Jim! I would NEVER say ‘no’ – not in a bajillion years! … this is why he hates me – I’m ssooo fucking superficial!) THIS FOOTAGE IS JUST…
Five Years…
“My brain hurts a lot…that’s all we’ve got.” May 25th has such a special significance to me now – because it’s the anniversary of this… 2017 is when it happened – and I was hopeful but not expectant. Just hopeful. Never believing I would get greeted in the way I did. I know we shouldn’t…
Paris Review – Part Two: ‘Song Please!’
Picking up where I left off from yesterday… I didn’t really say too much about the actual soundcheck. And I can only remember two of the songs that were performed – Hypnotised (seemed pretty apt for me! Lol) and The Walls Came Down (which Jim said will be on the new album coming out). It…
Paris Review – Part One: The Long Story? Or The REALLY Long Story?
I guess it’s best to start with the really long story and edit it from there… so may I start? I slept soundly enough Wednesday night and into Thursday. Probably didn’t settle down quite as early as I should have, but at least sleep wasn’t elusive that night and I got a good few hours…

Cannoli Get Better?
Good news from His Nibs today in his latest post. A number of good news pieces, for him – Villa Angela has once again opened its doors (just in case that whole “being the frontman for the best live band in the world” suddenly starts to go all pear-shaped after 40+ years, like). Whilst it…
Countdown To Paris – Gig Day!
Arrived safely in Paris. It’s aeound 6am And Ii’m typing without my glasses on. Had hardly any sleep. Serenaded by the snorer from hell. Thought I packed earplugs but couldn’t find them in my bag. Much to my detriment. Sorry for any typos but…. YAY! GIG DAY IN PARIS!!!
The Simple Minds Blog That Increasingly Feels Less Like A Simple Minds Blog
I haven’t shared very much about the tour here in all honesty. Unlike with previous tours where I felt very much a part of things most of the time, with the Acoustic Tour and then – with a sticky moment in between – the Walk Between Worlds tour, I was in “the heart of the…
