The Bellahouston Breakdown – A Long Vlog Post (Sorry!)

The Bellahouston Breakdown – A Long Vlog Post (Sorry!)

Sorry for the vid – I felt like dissecting it all this way instead of taking hours to compile a written post. I know the vlog posts aren’t to everyone’s liking, so to save you the pain, the condensed summary is: Yes & Maybe – great! Hamish Hawk – you know I can wax lyrical…

The Quay Sessions with KT Tunstall and Loudon Wainwright III

The Quay Sessions with KT Tunstall and Loudon Wainwright III

It was a lovely crisp, clear evening in Glasgow last night. It’s amazing to think that less than a week prior, the city was feeling the full force of Storm Eowyn – the contrast couldn’t have been more stark! In recent times making my way to this part of the city (Clydeside – by Pacific…

This Year’s Gigs Are About To Begin!

This Year’s Gigs Are About To Begin!

So far this year, my gig attendances have not been what I would consider a “proper” gig. Just a couple of weeks ago, it was the instore appearance at Mono/rail of Franz Ferdinand and tomorrow night is a “freebie.” I’ll be heading to Pacific Quay to the BBC Scotland studios to attend Roddy Hart’s Quay…

Okay – NOW I’m Officially Excited (Within Reason)!

Okay – NOW I’m Officially Excited (Within Reason)!

Well, how’s THIS for some Minds Music Monday news? I know the conversations I’ve been having with Michelle lately that she had been wanting them to play here for some time. As for me, I’d have preferred Kelvingrove Bandstand – but they’d have had to have played several nights running. I know Michelle will be…

Simple Minds Tour Diary – Grandslam 2018 Compilation

A great retrospective of the summer’s Grandslam tour. I wish I could have gone to more in retrospect, having gone through most of July wondering if I should be going to any at all. But the three I went to were incredibly special for all varying reasons. And they will each of them retain wonderful…
