May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I really don’t know what’s going on with Jim, I don’t. How could I ever? I don’t know him the slightest bit, personally. But he certainly knows enough about me…and I felt he used it as ammunition TWICE, in recent replies to me. Today he brought up poor Annick’s post to the visitor wall –…
He’ll KILL ME for the post title! Lol Caption: Jim says “Where’s ma hair gahn?” Charlie says “Aye, Jim. It’s flown away up there!”
Of course I have dreamed of meeting Jim even before he shared the link to John Grant’s Marz to me on St Patrick’s Day last year, but that heightened the notion. Because…he was giving me so much attention last year, I saw it as a personal thing…and read a message in the lyrics that are…
I missed mentioning it….and then I was too busy WATCHING it to post about it! Just a short while ago, Cherisse Osei via her Instagram account streamed live and we were treated to roughly the first 45 mins of the Simple Minds set from Nantes. The stream cut off midway through Andy Warhol (which I…
Sir does like to give me a kick up the bum with things sometimes…by accident, of course. He’s not specifically targeting me (it’s not as if we’re friends or anything…as much as I’d love to fantasise, dream, pretend and delude myself)…but I really have been wanting to catch up with this documentary for some time….
A fan shared these lyric sheets from the Union Chapel gig on the GMF fan page on Facebook after the show last week. Jim linked to this song when I said back last year (after he shared the Pale Green Ghosts vid for St Patrick’s Day) that I “need to get me some John Grant”….
This morning Sir is in praise of Vince Barker’s stellar work with Simple Minds. I must admit to being a little bewildered to see his pictures of them come through after the first few Acoustic shows, as I assumed with him being (what I thought was primarily) Andy’s keyboard tech, we wouldn’t see him…and consequently…
My dear friend Steve is sending me a VIP ticket to the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall gig on May 22nd. I’m in Row D, seat 21…THIS is where I’ll be! If Jim does his coming out to the crowd thing at the start of New Gold Dream…he’s gonna walk straight past me! And I hope he…
Operation “Cheer Up Lozzy” is in full commencement. Thank you Mr Stanshall and Mr Innes for your humourous ditty (and expertly timed burp). Now WHERE is the Simple Minds equivalent to this? (Nah…I want to keep the “black light”)
“I’m in tears again” – and I am. There are some really, really beautiful people who have come into my life from this Simple Minds thing. “And if same day, it should fall through” – they’ll remain with me.
