May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
With my THIRD copy of the Someone Somewhere In Summertime 7 inch vinyl with fold out poster sleeve, I thought I would just cut Jim out (I know! I’m evil! All the rest of the boys are in the other framed copy – and it was Jamie Morgan who blurred out Charlie in that one,…
A better price than even the Simple Minds’ “artist store” front online. And the way HMV pre-orders work is you just pay a £1.00 deposit and are only charged the rest of the price until the item is despatched. GET IN!!! So, no qualms for me pre-ordering the vinyl today. Follow the link here to…

Jim has created somewhat of a “shitstorm” in the Simple Minds fandom today. What he said was…referring to an album of NEW MATERIAL to come (those shitting all over the acoustic album releaese…no one is forcing you to like it or buy it…and stop feelng so fucking disheartened! IT’S ONE ALBUM! Now you lot can…
Wonderful news from the Simple Minds camp today! The release of an acoustic album of classic Minds songs (plus one cover, of Richard Hawley’s Long Black Train). The CD will be released on November 11 (the first 1000 copies pre-ordered will get a limited signed copy by Jim and Charlie – GET IN QUICK! I’ve…

But now it is framed and on the living room wall, taking pride of place in the main room of the house…well…I’m just full to bursting with pride and gratitude. I will never, ever be able to thank him enough. My love of them reflected back in him agreeing to sign it for me. Thank…
I really wanted to do something with the screen shots of Jim from the PYAM video and the last time I tried, it looked great digitally, but didn’t render well once printed. I’m not sure this will be any better…I won’t know until I get it printed, but we’ll see! It’s been roughly 4 hours…
I really was visualising all sorts when I saw the headline for this article. Lol. I could have very well imagined, back in 1980 in that Rockfields recording studio, Iggy and Jim having a “cock off”. As big as Iggy’s is (frankly, we’ve all seen it…the man wore clear PVC trousers FFS! Lol), my money…
Well, today SMO shared a playlist of what they at HQ consider to be the best remixes. (I do wish when they did these playlists, they would generate a new one, instrad of overriding the existing one. That’s really odd. You can have more than one playlist SM HQ! Lol) Anyway, some I agreed with,…
