May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
Well, the question itself definitely isn’t, but the language I used is. My spirits were lifted from him being around today, what can I say? My mood should not be swayed by others…but of course it is. It’s human nature…and…an empath’s curse? Anyway, enjoy my silly waffling post…or if you are perhaps someone who has…
Oh, he must be bored today…so much posting! So much feedback! Maybe it’s because I’ve been quiet on there lately? Lol. He feels free to interact with others? That smacks of so much self-importance. Lol. I’m sure the reality is he couldn’t give a flying fig…as much as I want him to. Oh, but I…
Well, no gig would be complete without some kind of travel drama. Yesterday it was the APPALLING service given by Thameslink due to their absolute shambolic implementation of their new timetable. We waited an hour for a train to London! We arrived at Luton station at around 2.41pm. The next train due was at 3.28pm….
Oh, it’s not my place to leave a comment. But I want to. Perhaps he didn’t get the message from whomever you asked? They forgot to ask him…or it slipped his mind once he was out on that stage? I’m sure if he was aware of the circumstances, he would have done it. Having been…

Well, it may sound weird still to call yourself an artist…but you can do it with affirmation and pride. A body of work that shows its worth, that you’ve received accreditation and validation for. So, it may sound odd to your “Weird Ears”…but it is wholly justified. A case in point…just how the rest of…
I’m going to assume the that magazine is Belgian, seeing as I bought these magazine clippings from a seller in Belgium. The language is French, so…. Anyway, I shall keep the pages as they are.
