May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
This was the kind of anecdote I had wished for in 2022 in Paris when I asked the question of Jim and Charlie for their early days tour memories of Australia. Of course, what I ended up getting from Jim was some address about why they hadn’t announced any tour dates for Oz yet. By…
Today is the anniversary of my first ever visit to Glasgow – six years ago. I had come up to take part in 15 to 1. A bucket list tick for something I had long wished to do – to be a contestant on a television quiz show. There was somebody who was HUGELY responsible…

Such a wonderfully written piece by Sir today. I still have that envious feeling! Like I did when I read the Bowie biography I read years back. Through the hectic MainMan years…and, oh, to have been Coco Schwab! What an amazing life she’s had, being by his side. Of course, the bit that tugs at…
