St. Sid Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 (edited) I was watching Jools Holland the other night as James were on it. The Gutter Twins only played one track, "Idle Hands" but it was f'k'n magic. Its the first time in years I have bought an album based on hearing one song once. Not only that the album is as good as I hoped. 1. The Gutter Twins - Idle Hands (Saturnalia) 2. Arcade Fire - Power Out (Funeral) 3. J&M Chain - Never Understand (Psychocandy) 4. James - Sit Down (Gold Mother) 5. Barry Manilow - Could It Be Magic (Barry Manilow) Edited May 2, 2008 by Jerry Sidowitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard Hughes in BlueSuedeShoes Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 The Waterboys supporting Simple Minds at Ibrox. Went and got This Is The Sea, which swiftly became an all-time favourite. A few years later I went to see Simple Minds at the SECC with my brother and The Silencers were the support. Big brer was so impressed he want and got The Silencers' back catalogue. Strangely enough I still listen to Mike Scott & co and my brother digs out A Blues for Buddha now & again but rarely do we play Street Fighting Years....

southside saint Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Saw The Alarm on The Tube circa '84 doing "Absolute Reality". Blew my 12 year old mind. Me, MickeyRamone and Millport are still bouncing around at Alarm gigs 24 years later Saw Pete Wylie at King Tuts a few years back, and "Heart As Big As Liverpool" made me run out and by the album. Still one of the best songs I've ever heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lassie in school with my big brother (Jayne Copland*) had a few house parties in which she would invite people by singing "Come on down and meet my neighbours!". Edited to add:- *That's Jayne Copland, the name of the lassie my big brother was in school with, not Jayne Copland the name of my big brother.

Howard Hughes in BlueSuedeShoes Posted May 14, 2008 Report Share Posted May 14, 2008 (edited) Jayne Copland...now theres a name from the past...The Stand...a lovely warming invite for anyone Jayne was a good buddy as well as being a good Buddie. Not seen her in years, but I DO know she's married with a family and, funnily enough, her husband works beside my brother, who is not called Jayne Copland*. Edited to add:- *that's my brother who is not called Jayne Copland not Jayne Copland's husband who is not called Jayne Copland. Edited to further add:- actually neither of them are called Jayne Copland. Edited again to further add:- and, now that she's married, Jayne Copland isn't called Jayne Copland.

I was gutted when they split last year as I'd only got the chance to see them once. They were simply outstanding live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saintnextlifetime Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 Bought a Jackie Leven album on the strenghth of Mike Scott being involved in it. Went to see Jackie at the Edinburgh festival , concert cancelled , Jackie bought the wife and I a drink and his promoter gave us his latest album . Jackie told us he would be playing in EK. Went to EK, where Jackie was supported by the Pearlfishers. Only Davie Scott played as the rest of them were being detained at H.M. pleasure. Went and bought their album on the strenghth of Davies' performance. Went to see the Waterboys at Barrowlands , Sawdoctors were the support. They put on a good show and one of them came from Johnstone , bought the album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
