May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Geez! I’ve had sssoooo much grief today getting a video up on YouTube! So I had to decrease the resolution of it and THEN break it up in to two parts. Not that ANYONE gives a rat’s arse anyways…but…well, you know. I just do this shit for my own entertainment anyways. Nearly SIX hours I…
OMG…TOPLESS ADONIS ALERT! Just when I’m trying to overcome this….obesession with this man – THIS SHOWS UP! Fucking look at him!! Oh, fuck! BE STILL MY BEATING OVARIES! Thank god it is cool in Glasgow today compared to most of everywhere else in Europe, cos I’m about to combust! JIM KERR YOU ARE FUCKING DELICIOUS!…
A lovely 30 minute chunk of Simple Minds recorded in Dublin in March, 2012. Really nicely done. Fine video work, Trevor. Thank you so much for filming it and taking the care to add better audio. Excellent work! For those of us who missed the tour, this is as near to a TARDIS as we’ll…
Recorded by SM’s sound tech (of then), Frank Gallagher, in San Francisco. The boys sound really on the mark here. I love this song.

Here is a selection of the things that were on the Oz TV SM DVD that arrived the other day. I put them up on YouTube to save space on my blog. Here goes… And the interview from yesterday – minus the bit of Prince Charles I snuck into it yesterday.
I absolutely LOVED Graham Kennedy. Known as “The King” in Australia, he wasn’t without his controversy. He particularly enjoyed performing impressions of Australian crows (which are actually ravens – just putting that ornithological fact out there for you) – which can sound like they are swearing rather painfully if you’ve ever heard them? Anyway….I have…
Is I am guessing is the answer (re: title of the post). Well, I guess Jim is now also focusing on his tome and … I dunno. I really feel like it’s that petty fucking “no one’s the boss of me” BS at play or some shit. I dunno what it is…but I had the…
Leeds, 2018. Don’t mean to be maudlin, but… To hear the “burning slow” lines return to the song during the Grandslam part of the tour – I was sssooo, so happy. They are the most beautiful, romantic lines. There was “soft rain” falling that night in Leeds too. And after all that had gone on…
