one at a time

yes all these sixties bands were great in their time, but by the time we came along there had been about ten years of kalida ho music, the first time we played live we were asked to play "kelly" for feck sake, drunken fisherman, never did have any taste!!!!

yes i give tom petty a wee birl no and again but i don't listen to much music since my radio days, lost the taste somewhat, that and my kids trashed my collection, so i settle for the better guitar bands that are around just now and annoy my kids by telling them where they've ripped off the tunes from.

as for you sweltered not being mentioned? it was a very long weekend which started with me and a not so well known video producer (E B McKenna) thumbing it to glasgow for "supplies" we had to thumb home on the saturday night from balloch which included a walk from arrochar over the top of the rest, half way from inverary to lochgilphead and another from the skipness turn off to tayinloan, i only got home at 5am and we started filming in the picture house at 9am, hence the reason i never moved, my feet were full of blisters and my jaicket had a bit of a list to port in the lining, via beirut, to match my shoes, about the weight of a bag of sugar, and no i don't know a della, a dog named jake? or a cat called kalamazoo? C?W not a strong point so references probably wrong.

wish i had the jaicket now!!!!

edited to include dunoon's latest post on youtube, that makes five, he'll have enough for a greatest hits dvd soon

i 'll naw argue that point, gettin a bit droond oot by the flash git on the left oh me, just have a wee look at him on the return of the space invader wizards thread, the medley clip, you'll understaun why

apart from that theres a long story about that morning, or rather the day before, and a total walk of about 40 odd miles while hitchin back fae the city, i got home at 4am and that was filmed at 9am on a sundaymornin, with the very first colour video camera in town which had what we might call a "built in" mic, yir lucky theres any sound at all, in thoses days a 200watt PA was considered big, nowadays anything less than 1000 watts and your not gonna hear it, apparently

cost me the equivelent of the average working mans wages for four months and i sold it "cheap" for £800 i noticed a wee sweerie slip in at the beginning of one clip but that was "willie D" of vic lighting fame who was cameraman, lightening engineer and in general allround charge, as it was his faither that let us have use of thepicture house, i found the invoice recently £6 it cost me for the hire
