He needs to get his arse to Glasgow. End of. Go Wee Jimmy x

Listen Fams, Wee Jimmy is the biggest Prince fan I know regardless of the mediocre recorded output in the past few years - the man knows his funk, sure, he may alienate most english speaking folk with his Glaswegian coloquialisms but wee Seamo is a true funk soldier of the purest kind.

The crowd were poor - fact.

Prince loved the show - fact

By the sounds of cancellations etc we got a great show and we should all feel privileged that a true living legend still comes across the pond to slap that one eyed bass ... it may not have been a classic but I can think of far worse ways to spend a Friday night.

I bet our friends across the pond would have killed for this show - I rest my case.

Peace Love & New Power.

i met wee jimmy for the first time 15 years ago at the front of the line to see prince at the SECC in glasgow at about 8am or something, with all his mates, and since then i've met him at prince gigs and parties through the uk such as the ONA tour and 21 nights in london, so he knows his stuff

one day i'll need to tell the story of how muirdo ended up with us all booked into a gay hotel in manchster after a prince gig

billy sloan is a right cunt. i've been to a few gigs he was at

once i was in glasgow seeing simple minds. my best mate used to live next door to jim kerr and his mum has been a good friend of his for decades. we used to go to his shows and get specially allocated seats, and i mainly went for the after parties (btw jim is a prince fan, he covered sign o the times in 88)

one time in glasgow we were sitting next to jims parents and family at a gig, and afterwards we went looking for the afterparty, we knew it was at x bar in the same venue, but we didn't know where that bar was located. on the way to find the bar i saw billy sloan so asked him where x bar was, and he just laughed and said it's over there, but you lot aren't getting in, or words to that effect, but in a really fucking rude way. so anyways we went there and got stuck into the free drinks

i really couldn't give a toss if i met jim kerr or not, as i'm not a fan of his, some of the simple minds stuff is pretty good, that song pretty in pink he did for that john hughes movie was really good and new gold dream is a masterpeice if you are into that post bowie kraftwerk electronic stuff, but having met a few of my real heros, meeting scottish stars is pretty unexciting to me. to everyone else, speaking to jim was far more exciting than my motivation of drinking the bar dry, and folk were almost falling over themselves to speak to him, but i discovered he's a pretty down to earth guy and not interested in all that wanky shit, so when he spotted my mate he came right over and started chatting about celtic football team. all he was interested in was talking about the hoops. i can't stand sport, nevermind football, so it was a load of old boring wank to me, so i wasn't really interested and pretty much showing my disinterest, and then i spot billy sloan looking at me, so i just turned up nose up at him so he knew i saw him and turned away. he was trying to be cool and get talking to jim, but without looking like he was trying to do it

anyways, after jim left us he just left the party, so we left too as we had to get back to auld smokie, so walked past sloan and blanked the cunt. i remember seeing him at some other gig and he looked over like he recognised me and i just fucking walked over to him and then walked right past him without acknowledging the fat cunt

i think he was also at the club i managed, he's just a fat alkie that goes looking for free bars annd free entry, and no-one likes him. folk just put up with him as he's probably the most well known music writer in scotland, but also the biggest cunt in scotland

i'm pretty certain muirdo planned it. how the fuck can you find a gay hotel by accident? i was walking up the stairs, which were lined by hundreds of framed black and white photos and i realised they were all people like dorothy from wizard of oz and liz taylor, and i'd ended up in the manchester equivilent of neverland
