The Edinburgh Weekender Of New Gold Dreams (And Burning Gold Memories)
Where do I start? I don’t even know! Strap in – it’s gonna be a long one! FRIDAY: Friday, I guess, is the best place to start. In an exercise in preserving energy (and money), we (‘we’ once again being myself and Birdy) decided to set out fairly late on Friday afternoon. The plan had…

Some Fun By The Fringe
A review of the weekend will come. Probably not the biggest thing….we’ll see. In the meantime, upon leaving the venue where Bruce Findlay’s talk with Graeme Thomson took place…this happened (see photo). I was about to cross the road and literally almost bumped into him. I then pointed at him and said “you’re Tim Vine.”…

Yet ANOTHER Video For Vision Thing…

The important bit is the song and the lyrics. I love the song and the lyrics. Jim’s glare to camera at the beginning…that’s a “Vision Thing“. (“Larrrrellllllllle…
Happy Anniversary – Love Song
Released 41 years ago today. My favourite bit of this video? – (apart from Jim just dripping ultra cool sex god vibes) – the moment Jim and Derek almost crash into one another and have a cheeky wee exchange of grins and giggles – around the 1 min 45 second mark. Enjoy! Click to view…
Roxy Music At 50 – BBC Radio 2 Specials
I caught up with both parts of ‘The Band’s Story’ episodes last night. It has really ramped up my excitement for seeing them at the Hydro in October. Their world tour starts in one month’s time (exactly one month away today!) in Toronto. When listening to the various members of the band talking about the…
ONE WEEK TO GO! NGD CELEBRATIONS BEGIN!
Oh! Next weekend! The weather promises to be grand! I have VIP tickets for both shows. My t-shirt arrived this morning as well. I’m all set. Still have to study in the meantime though! Buddhism in practice. Seems rather apt somehow… Anyway, here’s a vid. Haven’t even watched it all myself yet. Just eager to…
