Minds Music Monday – New Gold Dream Tour – Sydney
The two Edinburgh shows are less than two weeks away now and thoughts are turning to the New Gold Dream anniversary. I’m going through a lull right now with listening to them. I know! It’s all a very sad state of affairs, isn’t it? For nearly 8 years I listened to them every single day….

Considering the content on this blog is somewhat lacking, with a few circumstances accounting for that … I would like to try and keep SOME kind of activity going here!

First You Jump – First Airing….

Classic Pop News
Okay, as one of the “still managing to hold on in there“ printed publications (due to folks like me keeping up with their subscriptions, I’m guessing) – it’s a bit of old news now, but at least Classic Pop has printed the info. Feel a little let down that they never put in a live…
