May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
From the personal front…I endured the hell on earth that is the red-eye overnight coach from London to Glasgow. It had been a VERY warm day in London, and I was dreading boarding a coach with no working air con. Thankfully, THERE WAS WORKING AIR CON! Praise be! At least that aspect of the journey…

Arrived in Glasgow a couple of hours ago after taking the old “red-eye” from London. I. Am. Fucked! Lol But, I am here AND I can have a rest before tonight’s gig, so I’m happy. And…I’ve had doughnuts! That ALWAYS helps…
The next Caezar gig is imminent – happening tomorrow night, in fact. Tonight I start my travels up to Glasgow for the gig. Two coach journeys…some 10 hours of travel. Coach travel being the most cost-effective way of getting to Glasgow and back (unless you book a flight MONTHS in advance, or manage to get…
One final piece of brilliance from last night’s gig. Jinky giving one heartbreaking and breathtaking rendition of David Bowie’s I Can’t Give Everything Away. This man’s voice is phenomenal! Tissues at the ready…

You can hear his interview with Debbie around the 1 hour 38 minute mark. She does initially refer to Caezar as The Silencers…but she gets it in the end. It was a lovely interview. You can listen by playing the clip just below… I’m really looking forward to Saturday night in merry Windsor. Really…

While the next gig on the agenda is mere days away in Aix, and the sense of trepidation for the impending trip builds manifold, the gigs following will see me at two Caezar gigs. Today on their Facebook page, Caezar talked about the playlist they’d like to compile to play pre-gig and threw it open…
Some time back, I’d read a reference to a “Joe Kerr” and I was like “Pffft! As if! His parents wouldn’t be so cruel to have a son and name him Joe!” And Jim would make references about a house of FOUR boys…and I would think “you…Paul…Mark…unless you’re counting your dad in…who’s the fourth boy?”…
