May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I know I shouldn’t…but HOLY SHIT…Jim Kerr in 1981 is the most beautiful, most extraordinary thing I have ever seen in my life. (I still love you, Jim! I would NEVER say ‘no’ – not in a bajillion years! … this is why he hates me – I’m ssooo fucking superficial!) THIS FOOTAGE IS JUST…
Inspiration – right here (see pic of book dedication below). I will think of this for the next few days as I complete my latest assignment for university. It will remind me that I am at the place I have longed to be at right now. “When the other side of midnight calls / remind…
A quick reminder, esp. to those living locally…this will be taking place at the Mitchell Library tonight at 8pm. Looking forward to the talk and meeting up with Graeme in person and having my copy of the book signed. ??? Perhaps I’ll see you there? Tickets are still available as far as I know…(image is…

Really lovely to see an article with an interview with Sarah Brown inside the latest issue of Mojo magazine. Our Sarah really is “on her way”! Enjoy!
I didn’t bother to mention this on the blog earlier in the week. I don’t know why? A general air of disappointment, I guess. Kismet. It can be great, but it can suck too. A absolutely love this city and I am sssooo, so happy to be living here, but….hand on heart, I guess I…
