A “Then And Now” To Lament On
A post on SMOG from G Man about 5×5 Live and setlists and favourites and what not has me maudlin today. Forever lamenting I missed that tour. The photo he used for it – a montage of screenshots from an interview of the period looked like a piece of Kristen Whitehead’s montage work. Aye, it…

The Quiet Side Of Midnight – Priptona Art
The “art” very much comes and goes in waves these days. I must be needing some visual therapy as I have found myself working on the visual side of things again these past few days. I don’t feel anywhere near as depressed and “affected” as I did this time last year leading up to my…

In one he is poised to sign (or has just signed) the contract. He has those pursed lips there – the excited sign…
Jim Kerr: The Laird – Magazine Interview – 1987 (Publication and exact date unknown)
I’m guessing by the description Adam Sweeting gives of the weather “a summery day” and the talk of Live In The City Of Light having just been released (LitCoL released in May), it must be around June of 1987. I thought seeing as I’ve been to South Queensferry a few times over the past 12…
Jim Kerr Interview – Q Magazine – March 1998
The caption on the first photo – There was so much talk about Jim’s “penny whistle” at the time. Bloody hell! Also…the end of the article…him going on about Mariella Frostrup. Tie a knot in it, Kerr! Surely you were already with somebody else by this point? You’re never alone for long, it seems. I…

Killing Time By Ogling
