Edwyn Collins - Live @ Oran Mor, Glasgow 22nd April 2008
A really great set list for the night.
Edwyn was on fine form. He sat through the whole performance but he was really incredible. His disability has not prevented him from still kicking up a storm on stage. The Oran Mor was sold out for the show.
The Biggest surprise of the night was the presence of Roddy Frame on Guitar for Edwyn's band. He was excellent and added to the sense of specialness about the show.
On drums was an old friend of mine, Dave Ruffy. He's played with the Ruts, Aztec Camera, The Waterboys, Kirsty MacColl and Marc Almond to name but a few.

Dashboard Confessional - ABC 7th April 2008
Dashboard Confessional (well actually it was just Chris) performed to a packed ABC in Glasgow. Support for the night was John Ralston. It was a great solo show by Chris that basically turned into a great Dashboard Community singing evening. Here's a few photos of the night. I'd forgotten to put the up before (so more than a month later here they are!).

Get Cape Wear Cape Fly @ The ABC, Glasgow 2nd April.
And We're Back!
Okay, it's been a month since I last got here (too busy in other places, sorry).
Last week was at a show by Get Cape Wear Cape Fly. Only discovered them a few weeks back so it was nice to get to see the live so soon after the discovery!
Tonight I'm off to see Dashboard Confessional. Not really much else to report but will try and get back soon.
