May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
And FINALLY! Billy Sloan actually acknowledges Hamish Hawk’s existence by mentioning him in the list of support acts for Bellahouston Park – hell has finally frozen over folks! Lol. There’s also talk of the documentary too …. As well as a discussion about the ‘5 Year plan.’ Audio file below…(click to listen from homepage)
Here is the condensed recording of Jim’s interview with Nicola Meighan on Friday 22 November 2024. (Click post for audio.)
Yesterday I was looking at my Instagram feed when I was shown a post from Nicola Meighan. I don’t follow her, but sometimes the algorithm puts things in your feed that it thinks will interest you. This one was a post in which Nicola was photographed with His Nibs and her saying that he was…
