John Grant – He’s Amazing!
Thirteen months ago, today… I was in Adelaide, staying with my friend Janis and her family. I couldn’t sleep. I had tattoos done that day and sleeping on my back and left side was causing a little discomfort. Jim had shared John Grant’s Pale Green Ghosts for his post about St Patrick’s Day. And so,…
The Ronnie Gurr “Simple Minds in Berlin 1980” Book
One last mention of it. Little did I know when I invested in two copies there was a chance of being a lucky “one in ten” of getting a signed copy of the book. Did I perhaps make my chance one in five, having bought two copies? (I used to be fairly good at maths…it’s…

This Boy, Though (Part 775)
I love how much of him now you can see in this photo… Timeless beauty ? (Yes! I’m having a fawning, sycophantic fangirl moment. It’s Easter. I’m allowed! He’s more addictive than chocolate.

Conte Fly Reply…
Again, he later tempered his reply (having edited it several times again) to Conte about his grievance (that we kind of share, by the way). One part of it though…”Minds shows are about precision”. Really? Minds grew out of punk…post punk…PUB ROCK…the very thing that you say you are not (in terms of comparing it…
Who’s The Boss? Meow!
Anyone care to guess here why I might not have expressed my grievance to the set list being a little short and stage time lacking, just a little, to Sir personally? That was EXACTLY the reply I feared. I love you, Sir…but you are a bitch! Lol And he started off so nicely, and bit…

I like the merch you can get from the Simple Minds shop…but I want Jim on my shirts…so I make them up myself. I *had* to have one of “The Swivel Chair”! He’s too beautiful! And i just realised, his head will be right between my chesticles…oh, dear *grins devilishly* EAR MUFFS! Lol
Film Star
It’s a matter-of-fact title. I gave it a film effect and added a load of stars – hence: Film Star. I also hadn’t titled anything LDF for a while – and this picture is right in the period for which I give him that title. Laird Dash Fandango could very well have been a film…
