What Choons Yi Listening To?

Tsk. You get acrylic undercoat, gloss and eggshell.

Thats all bathroom and kitchen paint are. Is acrylic eggshell.

I don't like water based paints for woodwork. But I'm auld 😮‍💨
Easier for cleaning brushes.;))
 
Just read this about David Johansen.....


David Johansen, the former lead singer of the punk band New York Dolls, is said to be 'very, very sick' as he battles stage four cancer.

And this that if never heard of before. The photie looks like us against the mhankys....


The most original Scottish label since Postcard, Fence began in 1995 as a repository for a welter of leftfield musicians with have-a-go spirit. Having already released beautifully scuffed LPs, James Yorkston, Tom (U.N.P.O.C.) Bauchop and early Beta Band man Lone Pigeon feature here, as do HMS Ginafore, Pip Dylan, Gummo Bako and King Creosote, who offers up the gorgeous “A Friday Night In New York”. Like watching slow bruises spread over soft fruit.

Impossible to feel down in the dumps while listening to this. Puts a big, stupid smile on your face. Certainly raised my mood yesterday.

Absolutely brilliant! I've seen the James Taylor Quartet (not to be confused with the splendid other brilliant songsmith of the same name) on several ocassions over decades. Jazz and Hammond Organ. What is not to like Martin?

BIG G

I am convinced I saw this live sometime late 80s / early 90s. I’m not sure how cos at the time I was all illegal ‘raves’ and all that pish and didn’t really go and see bands. Nevertheless I’m pretty sure. It’s marvellous nonetheless,

Had the record player on while working from home today. Not spun this one in a while. Great album.

Jim Bob and Fruitbat have never really got the long term respect their output deserved if you ask me, especially when you consider the everlasting adulation and influence a lot of their pre-Britpop contemporaries still enjoy.

Great band! Saw them at Glasgow Tech in 1991 just as the wonderful 30 Something album came out. A great £2.20's worth of bedlam!
 
Looking forward to Snapped Ankles at Room 2 in Glasgow on Friday night. Supported by The Sick Man of Europe - who I had never heard..... jury still out.

I've been on a bit of a McLusky binge recently in anticipation of their upcoming album. This new stuff by them is cracking.

They were probably my favourite band of the early to mid 00s and a great noisy antidote to the Topshop landfill indie that was proliferating the UK charts at the time, so it's great to see them back.

Still annoyed their upcoming tour isn't extending to Scotland mind you...

An enjoyable night at Room 2 for Snapped Ankles last night - just not as good as St Lukes last time round.
