May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I could ogle photos ALL DAY…I really could (most days I do just that…at least for a bit of time anyway). And, just to compound the fact this is a SIMPLE MINDS *cough* Jim Kerr *cough* blog…here are two photos of Jim from another wonderful set from Thursday’s Miami gig by 4Rio Photography, shared on…
A brilliant review of the SM gig last night at St. Petersburg in Florida by Gabe Echazabal. Click the image of Jim to read…
Instagram really is becoming the place to be for visual splendour. Between Cherisse and Sarah’s video clips and fans sharing some truly amazing photos, as well as pro photographers too….there is a growing treasure trove of Simple Minds visuals to enjoy there. Here is but one example. Some truly cracking photos shared by account “imageberne”…
Give me strength! Australian Prime Minister, Scott Morrison, has got it in the neck because his “Eighties Plus” Spotify playlist has only one Aussie song in it!

It does comtain some swearing, this short clip (YASSSS! *fist pump*), but it’s fab. Man…to be ssssoooo cock sure! Just…I don’t think I have EVER been THAT sure of ANYTHING EVER in my life! It can’t all just be down to bravado?! You’ve got to have the belief and the cojones to know you can…
And no! I am not referring to dancing and my desire for a “dad dance” with Jim. Lol. I am, of course, referring to the 1972 Genesis album. In the interview for the “Records In My Life” video, Jim mentions his second gig being that of Genesis during the Foxtrot tour. In discussing Jim’s interview…
