I love Aberdeen FC, the Scotland national football team, and music.

Dreadful performance from start to finish. We dominated the first half but apart from the goal created nothing. Second half was poor and subs made it worse. Unlikely we’ll qualify. Why wasn’t pitch watered before or at half-time?

Shelf Lives were the support and were decent. Lambrini Girls were great fun and very political, from criticising Israel to Reform, though like their album most songs are about LGBT themes. Good to see old Lemon Tree bouncing.

Good win, although I didn’t think we were at our best. Still, we defended very well, especially Knoester and Milne. I think it’s a massive result that takes a bit of pressure off the manager. Hearts, Hearts are falling apart again... 😀

What a gig this was - absolutely brilliant in an amazing venue. They were playing Penguin Cafe Orchestra music, which Arthur Jeffes has carried on from what his dad, Simon, created in the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s.

The Orielles were the support and were alright. I didn’t enjoy English Teacher’s set - maybe the sound, or I was hungover after the Scotland game. Seen them twice before in smaller venues and they were good.

That was a mad game. Scotland were dreadful for 40 minutes, had a good five minutes in each half, then went 3–0 down but could-and should-have at least managed a draw. Big game tomorrow.

Support came from Westerman, but I only caught the last two songs, which sounded decent. I love Nation of Language, especially their 80s-style synth pop. They were excellent, was a shame the singer’s guitar broke. Still, a top gig!

Expected a tough match after the team’s late return on Friday, and it proved to be so. Motherwell had plenty of possession but didn’t do enough to win. Surprised there were no subs, as the team’s performance wasn’t particularly strong
