Loving Your Work, Jack!
Sir posted about the awards ceremonies they’ve been to in Edinburgh yesterday. With the post, he shared a painting by Jack Vettriano. Of course, I knew of Vettriano, but had never really looked at much of his work. He really does have his own very obvious style. You could see a painting of his and quite…
Shrine Building Continues
Wanted to have the picture discs accompanied with something to fill the space. I thought of CD covers and was initially going to keep a theme and have Promised You A Miracle and Glittering Prize or SSIS in the frame…but they were a bit big (they were old style single sleeve CD cover inserts in…
The Best Screengrab!
I love this picture of Jim holding up a picture of David! Melting heart…melting heart! ?? I had a go at taking away the writing with my editing app. Not 100% done…but good enough. I can’t take the credit for the screengrab. That’s from fanpage.it – as is the interview video it came from. Watch…
Simple Minds Acoustic – My Personal Album Review
Having involved myself with a great simultaneous live “listen to” on the Simple Minds International Facebook group…I thought I’d share my thoughts on the album, track by track. Now, if you are a reader of my blog and/or know me from the Simple Mimds fanbase, you probably know that if I don’t like something, I…

TOTP 1982 BBC Four Repeats – Glittering Prize
Our bhoys will be back on Top Of The Pops from 1982 on the BBC Four repeat that’ll be aired next Friday November 25th (Acoustic vinyl release date – coincidentally!). This time they’ll be “performing” (it’s a mime/lip synch) Glittering Prize. They actually went in and recordered it TWICE! So…it begs the question…will it be…

Say Again?
So, in this new Guardian piece about “Don’t You” Jim says Chrissie suggests they record the song…but when I asked him on SMO in February last year about whether Chrissie persuaded him to do it, this was the reply I got… I’m confused now. I mean, it matters little in the grand scheme of things…but…
Hackney Empire Review – November 10th, 2016
Oh, I’m sure I can be objective enough for this! Lol On a personal level, this had been my first Minds gig in over a year, and only my third in total…so to say it was highly anticipated is an understatement! On my mind constantly was the health of my pet cat, Chrissy, who had…

It’s A Magic Number…
I feel very, very lucky! I have three gigs booked for next year. Three SIMPLE MINDS gigs, that is! I’ll also be seeing The Stranglers in March, and Holy Holy in April. I don’t think I’ve been to so many gigs in my life! My Minds gigs are in lovely stages. First, I go back…
