Britain's answer to the MC5, and one of my absolute faves from the 70s feature in the latest #vivelerock mag - take a bow The Pink Fairies.. what a bunch of sweeties ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ

Despite showers I absolutely loved @KGBandstand.. fairly intimate for a 2k capacity venue which allowed some ridiculous banter between band and audience.. spontaneous is the way to go for live. Imagine the place is spectacular for gigs on a sunny afternoon ๐๐ธ๐

โAnother great concert from The Damnedโ.
Last night at Kelvingrove Bandstand was tremendous; thank you.
I was suitable attired in full waterproofing gear ๐ฌ
What did you think of the venue (leaks in the roof aside)?

..and NOW the sun decides to show it's face ๐ Well, a spot of rain isn't dampen the spirits of a typically fun #Glasgow @KGBandstand audience last night.. plenty of banter and daft moments. Fair to say @thedamned and #Glasgow booted considerable amounts of butt last night ๐ฅพ

As a youngster I would wave at passing steam trains from Tooting Triangle playground starting a enduring railway obsession. Later on in life met Lemmy wherapon the word tooting took on an entirely different meaning ๐

Gawd.. what am I like? After a fun @thedamned show blurting out my thanks to #Stockholm for having us.. in bloody #Copenhagen ๐
I can only apologise to the wonderful audience.. in my defense we'd just flown in and I had literally no idea where on earth I was.
Silly old fool ๐ซฃ

Yes, I called out #AndrewMountbattenWindsor in that song back in 1982 but I don't have any particularly perceptive powers.. it was just fairly obvious at the time that the bloke was a wrongun. ๐คฎ

Here's one for Brian.. we've covered a bunch of tunes - the ones that made him pick up a geetah in the first place. There's a few unusual choices in there too ๐
