Tayside Bar - Dundee

I'm a drinker in the TSB ( thistle street bar) in Edinburgh nowadays but back in the 80's and in particular 1982 to 1983 much of Deadbeat was written here.

 I was the "luckiest citizen of all" as the Happy Family once sang. I even wrote a review of Tony Benn's Caird Hall speech here - a song for Europe - I called it - to be fair Brian sold the perfect Guinness and the Irish influence was all over the review. I digress the tayside bar has a new web admirer - Gordon "retro Dundee" Gurvan has built a fantastic website dedicated solely to the TSB - a proper social historian - thanks Gordon and enjoy everyone 

 here's the link that will take you to the Tayside Bar gig archive...

Spanish stroll in April

An April camino sees me start in Barcelona and finish in Burgos on April 24th - if you fancy a walk there'll be hundreds as usual on the trail.

A big regret is missing the monochrome set over 14/4-15/4
