Jim Kerr Interview With Kerry McLean on BBC Radio Ulster
It seemed a repeat from some time back. One I seemed to miss at the time – or at least missed catching a copy of the interview for posting here. Anyway, here it is. Enjoy.

Gay Paris! – Part Two
Today would have been the day I was flying back to Paris for another Simple Minds gig. And then onto Bordeaux for another one two days later. A meet and greet, no less. Probably would have been shitting myself again. Worried about Mr Kerr and what he thinks of me. Always do. Always will. Ridiculous,…
Major Edinburgh Festivals For August 2020 Cancelled
Wondering if that also means the Summer Sessions gigs in Princes Street Gardens are off too? That’ll be yet ANOTHER Simple Minds gig nae happening then? Fuck you 2020! Fuck you Coronavirus!
What’s Left?
I’m not really sure what *is* left? This site has become stagnant. Gigs are on hold. There is NOTHING coming from the official channels from Simple Minds – now suddenly after 9 years on Facebook is now being referred to as just “Simple Minds” rather than “Simple Minds Official”. Another nail in the coffin? Another…

Pissing In The Wind…
I love this band. I love them sssooo much and I really, really HATE criticising them or their management. And I know they’ll be working hard and doing what they can to reschedule dates – BUT – enough is enough now. If you can’t confirm new dates, please at least reassure fans. Reassure them you…

Two other albums followed. The conceptual Interchange,…

Missing Inaction?
A deliberate ‘typo’ on my part, that title… Most fans are talking about dates and wanting news…or if they’re not, they’re going on about how they miss how the band “really were”… “back then” when they (the fans, that is) were teens. Some are reminiscing about Street Fighting Years, which is all well and good…
Arty Facts…
Just been trying to keep myself entertained while being bailed up at home. Been doing bits every day. Jim. Charlie. Now Ged. I’d like to think I have good enough photos to make a piece for every member of the band, but think I’ll struggle for Berenice and Cherisse. They’re just too far back from…
Minds Music Monday – All Tomorrow’s Parties
Some felt the need to diss the man and wonder what his purpose is in the band when someone shared a pictured of Gordy Goudie on SMOG. If you don’t see his purpose, more fool you! He was partly responsible for THIS, for one. And Jim’s voice on this is just beautiful. I love the…
