Today, much like every other day, I should be studying. But today I feel a particular sense of melancholy and foreboding. I *should* feel on a high, because last night Simple Minds actually, FINALLY, debuted on ‘Later…with Jools Holland.’ They were incredible. Vision Thing sounded AMAZING.

Earlier in the year, Christophe, from the wonderful, City Of Light, a French Simple Minds tribute band, got in contact with me about the badges I had been sent of my ‘art’ by a lady named Samantha. I told him I was happy to send some to him. It’s taken a while due to there…
His Master’s Voice informed me that I had one itty bitty bit of the lyrics to Vision Thing incorrect…so, I have altered it. Thought I was in a Covid fug when I saw the correction there for me. Lol. I received no notification of it. Anyway…tis fixed.
