I’m afraid I also saw him Stevie – 3 times in fact. 2002 at the Victoria Hall, Annan, 2009 Strathclyde Suite GRCH and 2011 at the City Halls recital rooms. Excellent each time and we even managed a wee chat with […]

I also own two but I have attended gigs by three. So, I reckon the prize is mine.

In the mid-seventies I bought Phaedra by Tangerine Dream. I think I bought it either because I liked the word ‘Phaedra’ or because I was trying to impress some bonnie lass. Anyway, I have no memory of ever having […]

Having attended a few Ry Cooder gigs over the years, I was at the Glasgow Concert Hall on Tuesday too and I would rate it as one of the best performances. A great mixture of songs played by fine musicians. The […]

No, we haven’t discussed the Armadillo gig before. I don’t do much discussing here.

The last Steely Dan gig I attended was on 06/09/00 at the Armadillo in Glasgow. The ticket cost £27.50. I imagine the Glasgow tickets this time will be 3 or 4 times that amount. However, I will be putting in […]
