Ginny Gems – Part Three
The whole Tavistock Square photoshoot. Well, all of them that I see on a certain editorial pics site anyway. I love them. I just love them.

Prip’s Minds Tour 2017
This kind of thing was starting to feel like a pipe dream. That I would get to pop around the UK, seeing my favourite band in the whole UNIVERSE play several gigs. I feel very, very lucky and very, very happy. FIVE GIGS! I could pinch myself! The first being the pilgrimage to Glasgow. It’s…
Recording Time!
Jim posted on FB this morning about he and Charlie returning to London, while there is a few days break in the NOTP schedule to do some recording for the new album! Very exciting news. One point though – I think despite Jim saying something akin to “it’ll be ready when it’s ready”…the ideal and…
You And Only You
After this BBC Radio 3 broadcast of the Florian Hecker work we’re going to on Saturday, the next gig will be this amazing lady at Kings Place on December 17th. It is going to be wonderful and I’ll be taking a copy of this with me to be signed by Catherine. Thank you, lovely, lovely…
Fourth Acoustic Spring Gig
Another London show booked! Back of the stalls this time. Charlie’s side of the stage. That’s a first! Stalls – Row YY, seat 26. Thank you! Now just the long, long wait for the spring…
It’s A Magic Number…
I feel very, very lucky! I have three gigs booked for next year. Three SIMPLE MINDS gigs, that is! I’ll also be seeing The Stranglers in March, and Holy Holy in April. I don’t think I’ve been to so many gigs in my life! My Minds gigs are in lovely stages. First, I go back…
I’m Going To HACKNEY EMPIRE!
Simple Minds are playing a very special concert for Radio 2 (also will be on the Red Button on the TV) on November 10th at Hackney Empire – AND I’m GOING!!! Row C, seats 11&12!! I cannot express how bloody happy I am. I’ve never been to Hackney Empire before and I cannot wait. It…
Throwback (Kerrsday) Thursday – Gig Review
A gig review of the boys performing at the Marquee in London on December 18th, 1980. I’m not really sure this guy gets them. Or maybe he thinks the AUDIENCE doesn’t get them? From his description of the crowd, perhaps they don’t? OK, the guys sounded kind of dark then…but they are GLORIOUS! This guy…

Baby Bhoys On The Radio For The BBC…The BBC, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!
Lol. I couldn’t help but hear that parody song at the end of the Austin Powers film then. Man alive I want a TARDIS…if to go nowhere else but to see a 5×5 gig from 2012. That would be just as awesome as travelling all the way back to 1980 for this! Enjoy…
Oh, To Be One…
Or even considered one… An “old friend” that is. Less than two years into my fandom, I can hardly pass as an old friend! But could have been considered a new one, had I not gone into self-destruct mode and poured a whole heap of scorn on the idea. Because, at the end of it…
