English Teacher warming up a cold Glasgow at Barrowlands last night. The songs from the LP really came alive on stage where Lily Fontaine was a powerful presence. Terrific stuff.

A lost gem of a 7inch solo single from 1981. It really is terrific. All humming now!

First ever gig at the wonderful Royal Albert Hall last night. And it had to be the inestimable Wilco. What a venue and what a set. Sound was incredible even up in the Rausing Circle where I was sat. Brilliant night.
