Hunter And The Hunted and The American have been posted on the main review thread. Following is Promised You A Miracle and a Alive And Kicking/Sanctify Yourself/End of gig “Dad Dance” mega clip. There’ll be snippets of Let There Be Love and All The Things She Said added shortly… Enjoy!
I have to prefix this by saying…rather sadly now, this is my last Simple Minds gig for the foreseeable future. There are some Grandslams left, of course…Swindon, Ardingly and Taunton next weekend, and Inverness and Dundee the following weekend…then off they go to Mexico, the USA and Canada.

I posted this as a comment on SMO…then took it away minutes later. I dunno… Hell, what’s the point any more? I feel… scared. And FUCK I AM SO SICK OF FEELING SCARED! *cries* He used to make me feel braver than I ever thought I could feel…
