May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
You know what? Well, I was worried about why I had been blocked from the Decade 77-87 Facebook page. And I was genuinely scratching my head wondering why the hell it would be that I was. Then this evening, with a new share of a Simple Minds video compilation they had put together, I realised…
It’s taken me a few days to get around to listen to this. I like it. It’s very expertly done. But…I kept waiting for my fix of the chorus to arrive. At least just one time! And…the best part of Mick’s synths are taken away as a consequence, because they lay behind Jim’s vocal in…
I have been sleeping-in lately. Demanding dreams from my subconscious. Every night before I fall asleep, I pray that I’ll dream. Good dreams.

I tell you what – I wish THAT was the bloody prize! To be allowed to design the next shirt! OMG…that would be AMAZING! And…in my dreams! Seriously. Nothing would make me happier! Anyway, it’s not what this is…but you can win a new SM shirt, so…go for it! Be quick!
Every time I see a post to the SMO visitor wall (or comments left on a post) expressing wishes for gigs, my heart breaks. I can’t like these posts or comments. I understand people are missing the band…and Jim…I do too. But…Jim’s post last week. Perhaps it just hasn’t sunken in with some people? I…
I was looking through the latest edition of Classic Rock magazine, saw this little interview with Steve Hillage and my eyes were drawn to the last paragraph. Wasn’t expecting him to be name-checking Jim. Very nice.
