This weekend I have been mostly procrastinating within the city limits of Glasgow (not Austin Texas – their City Limits are something else!).
Got some new, well old, CDs from the excellent and reasonable Fopp. The elderly Spoon and Rafter by Mojave 3 – which I had as MP3s – but there’s something about holding a CD case? Is there really? A similar story applies to Jocktastic Camera Obscura.
I also saw my matetastic Calamateur at The Goat – a nice wee pub with a big website.
Irishmusos David Kitt and The Frames have released albums across the water, will have to try and get some sent over. Kittser is playing a number of Scottish gigs. Unfortunately the majority are supporting The Magic Clones, sorry The Magic Numbers, who I don’t think I could listen to. Luckily he is playing in Edinburgh, at the interesting Cabaret Voltaire.
Gig watch: Howling Bells and The Dears coming soon to Glaswegian venues near you.
10 links, not bad.
See you at Howling Bells then?
