Hadnt come across them. Just looked them up - interesting. How come there were just 20 folk? I would have thought McGovern would have been a draw on her own.
Glen, my thoughts entirely. My eldest got mairriet (as they say in these parts) in July. The entire 'do' was organised around the availability of Billy Anderson's ceilidh band (Kenny, of King Creosote fame's feth'r) and what a great night it wis.
that sounds like a social life. I'm sure I had one somewhere, just temporarily misplaced it.
This is what I was listening to today and trying not to sing along, arms aloft while walking home. Or maybe I did hence the lack of marks on the social calendar.
And I quite liked Anderson McGinty Ward thing whatever on Rapal last week. Cannae find a video of it. Was called the Highwayman.
Glad your on here Gaie. Just had a tip o' "Ellen and the Escapades" fae my bro in law fae Welsh Wales who saw the band at the Green Man concert. I have to agree wi his view that this crowd are really good and will be big in future. I'm on my fourth listen through in the past few hours.
I put this into Musidaedia and it suggested Hadyn's Cello Concerto or The Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen. I know what you mean, though. I feel I've heard it before.
did i tell you lately i've been busy but ive just had a look at tonight's playlist............i just do not believe that anyone asked for paolo nuttsinit.....the point i'm tryin to make is that the dancing at my wedding was non existent as there were only 4 guests and that was touch and go.....but i did sing at a wedding 42 years ago.....good morning starshine.............i cant remember how i came to know the words to that....there were people on the dance floor but i think they may have been staring at me with incredulity at the best.....
i know its a bit late and been a busy wan but just mibbe squeeze in towards the end........
'good morning starshine'................oliver (ok its half nine ..do you read this blog Ricky boy LOL)
cheers frae the dale (MK has made a particularly acidic comment about the last song..thats her scrubbed)
"It's great to see so many new friends here and we are delighted you want to be part of Get It On. One of our regulars, Mad Mac has suggested a week of themes about musicians and we'll do it in a couple of weeks time. But maybe you have ideas for a theme that could run across a week. If so feel free to post it here."
Does that include bits which would be hairy were they not waxed / shaved / plucked?
I ask because many patriotic female women might stand for the National Anthem on smooth legs. Or, indeed, hairy legs!
...or mibbe stubbly legs...
Careful now you'll get Norrie all excited...
ReplyDeleteForbidden Colours, unlikely I know :'(
ReplyDeleteKeep tryin'
DeleteWill do (:-)
DeleteIt was 'a busy show' tonight so it was a very remote possibility.
I saw Sadie & The Hotheads last night in an audience of around 20.
ReplyDeleteHadnt come across them. Just looked them up - interesting. How come there were just 20 folk? I would have thought McGovern would have been a draw on her own.
DeleteIt started at 11.45 - the rest of the shows have been re-scheduled for 10.00. So much for the 24 hour party city.
DeleteThe band were very good and included a stunt double girl singer.
You went all the way to Kirkcaldy!!
DeleteNot really sure what to make of this...
Brooce is woman!!
DeleteWhat is it with all these American men all of a sudden?
For f..k sake, is that Pinky or is it Perky?

Delete"Oops Upside Your Head" - The Gap Band
Adam, you forgot Tony Christie and Daniel Boone. Let's get sloshed!
DeleteOf course Billy, but hey, I was doing the above for fun, over on f***book they are putting them in as serious shouts.
DeleteOh dear!!
DeleteAny wedding worth going to has a ceilidh band for real dancing.
DeleteI think Ellie Goulding may tip Glen over the edge (:-)

DeleteApart fae Senga
DeleteBut then again, aw her tastes wis poor
But then another again, Senga disnae frequent this blog.
Phew
thanks, DC, eager for some new listening, I'll have a go at that later.
DeleteHad to head for Glasgow at 1.30 a.m. to uplift son from bus-station.
Crowds heading for clubs, I expect Glen was one of them.
Girls in party-frocks and bare feet, I expect Senga was one of them.
I think I saw her
DeleteReal rock climbers don't hang about centres, we're out in all weather with hands on the real stuff ;-)
DeleteThat's all very well for you - I get dizzy on a bar stool.
DeleteSo do I... Barman! I'll have another pony and a half.
DeleteNorrie, "Valentine's Day" reminds of at least 2 other songs but I cant put my finger on them. Any thoughts?
ReplyDeleteNot sure about the hair in this either:

DeletePoor Mac, must be strange to be known so universally but be so lonely.
DeleteHistory is riddled with men like MM. We shouldn't be surprised by this turn of events.
DeleteWhy even EZ has downgraded him to a Naughty Goblin.
Quite bizarre whistling…

ReplyDeleteI saw Jan Akkerman at The Ferry. He's the best guitarist I've seen.
DeleteGood one Billy!
DeleteAnother chance for Le Petomane tonight?
There's little demand for blowing out candles any more.
DeleteI just looked up Cristophe Naud on Facebook - I always thought he was Scotch Git - if so he's gone to a lot of trouble to create this identity.
ReplyDeleteCould this be Master of Disguise Scotch Git?
DeleteNon
DeleteThe Indian Coalition against the Death Penalty alongside GIO is the give away I'd say.
DeleteHis alternative is Bryan Burnett - a difficult choice - at least capital punishment is quick.
DeleteA rare outing for Paper Lace!
ReplyDeleteAnyone we know? I saw they were being confused with Black Lace on FB.
It wisnae me!
DeleteHave requested "Yuri" by Oi Va Voi for tonight. What are the chances?
