Evening walk at Drumpelier Loch

 On saturday evening we headed to Drumpellier for a bit of fresh air and a walk round the loch.

WASP still rocking out after all these years

Recently went to see WASP at the O2 Academy in Glasgow.

This was the celebration of the debut album, so the played the first album in it's entirely before doing the usual "best of" for the rest of the set.

As usual, the band put on a great show, with Blackie in fine form.

The one thing that was a bit weird, was for the Glasgow show, there was no support band, doors opened at 7pm, band took to the stage at 8pm, and with a 10pm curfew (no idea why as the usual for this venue is 11pm) they were done and dusted by 9.30pm.

The band were on fine form, and I for one have no complaints about an earlier start and earlier finish, as some gigs can go on to the point where getting home means forking out for a taxi, or missing the end of the gig to get the last train/bus home.  So that was a plus in my book.

Been ages, and Chantel McGregor at G2 in Glasgow

 So, I haven't posted anything here in what seems like forever, and checking the links on my sidebar, it looks like most of the folk I followed have given up blogging.

C'est la vie.

Recently I went to see Chantelle McGegor playing at G2 in Glasgow.  What a gig.  Shame there wasn't more people there to see her.  I can't understand why someone this talented isn't bigger.  Folk are missing out.

Anyway, here's a couple of pics from the night.

This is not a love song

 Last night I FINALLY saw Public Image Ltd.  For some bizzare reason I'd never been to see them before, but that's been finally put to right.

The last time I saw John Lydon was a Pistols gig, so I was looking forward to this.

He certainly didn't disappoint.  He's definitely not a fan of the Pistol tv show, dedicating Shoom to Danny Boyle and the Disney minions :-)

Anyway, great night, and I'll be back next time.  After all, as the man himself said last night "I'm only 66 you fuckers"

 Early Valentine's pressie from my wife.
