It’s All Down To Jim

It is all the whole reason I ever did them. Oh, yes…I would love more than anything in the world for it to be something I can do professionally and make a living from…but that came later, that thinking and wish – once having realised I may actually be half decent at SOMETHING in my…

Welcome To Aylesbowie

Today was the unveiling of the David Bowie statue/sculpture within Aylesbury town centre. In honour of it taking place, at least for one day, the town altered its name…albeit unofficially, to Aylesbowie. If I was to take a stab at crowd numbers, I’d say a couple thousand people were there. I did my bit to…

Another “icontethefly” Special!

This time, as about as cleaner/clearer copy of the 1983 Bologna gig as you’re ever gonna get. No Celebrate, sadly…but pretty much all of New Gold Dream bar Somebody Up There Likes You and King Is White And In The crowd (geez, Jim loved a long song title back then! Lol). I was hoping to…

Simple Minds – Q Magazine Feature – May, 2018

This is now TWO journos who got to hang out with them around Glasgow, that I know of. Oh, dream, dream, dream. My three minutes at the WBW album signing was…a “blink and miss it” haze…even WITH the sherbet straws footage. Lol. (Cringe-tastic!) Anyway…the new A3 scanner means I can scan double pages! Hell yes!…

How does one go about reviewing something they have very little knowledge of? Well, research, for one helps. But it would feel a cheat to do that…so I will review it with a novice approach. We queued for an hour. Quite WHY we queued, I’m unsure. Just, well, because the sign was there, a guy…
