Great Lost Tracks - An Everyday Series

Freedom of 76

Triffic wee track that James

It made me think of this one for some reason

You havin this Crownybhoy?



I used to drink with a guy that worked on a farm.

I remember he got very upset in the pub one dinnertime cos his girlfriend had chucked him.

She sent him a John Deere letter

Not heard this in a while

Fuckin triffic stuff Jimmy

Scotland...

Ireland...

(Mibbes we could take part in that fixture and not get our arses felt )

Fuck me, was it folk night?

Folkin' right it was

If I could be any pianner-pounder...

...it would be Nicky H.

In the wings - never in the spotlight.

ACHTUNG!!!

INCOMING TURGID ANECDOTE!!!

I wunst landed a gig as pianner player for a Halloween musical stage production.

Did the whole thing from the wings out of sight of the audience.

First night went like a dream.

On the second night, one of the cast slumped down in the wings and died of a stroke half-way through the performance.

I had to fill-in while the medics tried (unsuccessfully) to revive him.

Poor sod.

Imagine havin to go to meet your maker with my inexpert noodlings ringing in yer ears

I'm currently considering stalking Nicky Hopkins to avoid a similar fate.

Immo, what a shameless old vamp. Might have known you'd have one of those "the show must go on" tales in the repertoire

It was in The Tollbooth theatre in Stirling.

The sound guy was the actor who played Andy in Gregory's Girl.

At one point he was supposed to cue up some 'chase' music but somehow managed to blast out a 'creaking door' sound effect followed by some birdsong.

While the actors stood dumbstruck and horrified, I had the presence of mind (remarkably considering my pre-show beer-intake ) to scare up a bit of silent-movie-style 'chase' comping on the ole johanna.

Pretty hard to do while the director is hugging you and calling you a genius

StartWithTheShoesLove CSC

Incorrigible! Was that the last time you got called a genius, or the first? Or both?

No idea.

That's definitely not the first time I've been called incorrigible tho

Ta for the laffs man

One of my studes is off tonight to see a triple bill of Girlschool, The Damned and Motorhead.

My cousin's 48-year-old husband...

(grey of temple, John Paul Gaultier of spectacle... accountant )

...is currently in The Usher Hall grooving to the prog-rock stylings of Yes.



Us old cunts always get the shitey end of the stick.







PS

Don't forget the

Ooh-woo-ooh-ooh...

I'm so ghetto.
