SUPER ROCK IN the 21st CENTURY!
The Fleshtones made a triumphant return to Glesga last night, a little over 41 years since their last stramash at Night Moves on November 3rd 1983. Ken was but a twinkle in the firmament. They’re on first during The Damned tour. Serving up the Super Rock in venues the size they’d be headlining if there was any justice. However, that commodity is in short supply as we're all too aware and the cause for celebration is to see them in Panavision.
Remembering The Ramones on the very stage Joe and Co burned up on several occasions. The boys did good and the wheel of talent spins toward Manchester today. What a pleasure to spend time these fellas.

WHEN LOSER"S RULE THE WORLD
My weekend didn’t go the way it was meant to so that gave me the opportunity to get in about Ned Hayden’s Scene Loser. A slim 103 page journal that provides an honest account of his tenure outlining the peaks and troughs as they presented themselves. Grunge, such as it was, seemed leaden and lumpy. The trick was to transcend the dirge and this guy led the charge on having a beat on the calibration required to counter the template as a commodity.
The Action Swingers were there, for better or for worse. Maybe not for richer but success isn’t always measured in financial terms. I’m humbled at making the cut to appear here as the time the band came to Glasgow and the tour mangler’s dog Herbie went missing is relayed.
You’ll have to read the book to find out what happened. Click the picture for order details.
