THE CENTER OF NOWHERE
The trailer for “The Center Of Nowhere” was a fairly emotional watch for me so I had some trepidation about the full length documentary. This excellent film about the “buckle on the Bible Belt” that is Springfield , Missouri is a triumph for all concerned being that it celebrates its subject without being an infomercial that looks like it should be on VH1. It’s a rich delving into this little known melting pot that enjoys a real deep and wide talent pool. I don’t want to ruin it for anybody and the real focus of all this is Lou Whitney and what his presence brought to the town.
It’s unlikely that anyone that visits this parish is not aware of his importance. If you are then it’s even more important that you watch this. Lou not only gets his justified due. This also gave me a chance to spend some (remote) time with some very dear friends. Dave Hoekstra has made what plays out as a love letter to this wonderful location. The story about Lou that Mike “Supe” Granda tells of the last show he played reduced me to rubble. That’s not to say that I didn’t get something in my eye at several other junctures. Bobby Lloyd Hicks is here too and if you were ever lucky enough to spend time in his company then you’ll know what I’m talking about.
We’re talking about guys that made a difference. There are plenty that are still around in there too to provide examples of why everybody should be aware of the pride of the “Show Me” state. And yes, I’ve been there, so I have first-hand experience. Joe Terry rightly suggests that he and his fellow Skeletons was a crew of Wrecking Crew/Muscle Shoals proportions in the film. The man is not wrong.
Andy Shernoff, Scott Kempner, Eric Ambel, Donnie (D. Clinton) Thompson and Jonathan Richman are just some of the folks that pitch in.

16 YEARS - A HISTORY LESSON IN PICTURES
As the nights are (fair) drawing in and staying in looks like becoming the new going out, you’ll be looking for something to keep you away from the telly.
Why not dig into this doorstep sized digest of photos, ticket stubs and flyers posters that cover 16 years of shows and venues in Scotland. It was printed up here too by MLG in Glasgow. At 560+ pages, the scrapbook-type tome is presented in town/city alphabetical order and I’d be surprised if at least one of your favourite acts wasn’t lurking in there as they 'developed'.
Click on the image for details of how to get it, I don’t think this one will be able via the evil empire. You might consider the price hefty but once you see it then you’ll get the picture(s).

ALL ABOARD THE BUBBLEGUM FACTORY EXPRESS!
It's time to hear those records play!
Hard to fathom that it’s been 7 years since the previous Yum Yums record but you know what they say about time flying. As an antidote to these times, this sonic vaccine will be available right around now and a quarter of a century later, Morten Henriksen has gone full ChinniChap and even manages to twin Moss Rock City with Bellshill here and there.
“She’s Got Everything” is the best Teenage Fanclub song that Norman (Blake) never wrote. An upbeat shindig that'll fasten a dirty big grin across the coupon of all that come into contact with it. "Coupon" is a Scots expression for face.
Available on vinyl from Screaming Apple (act now because those will vanish fast) CD version is coming via Rum Bar (USA), Waterslide (Japan) and House of Rock (Europe). If it's a download you're after then Rum Bar and Waterslide.
It's typical that their first UK show ever has had to be postponed however, the 2020 edition of Pump It Up! will be rescheduled as soon as direction to how that can happen becomes available. Ditto for a celebration in the wee Norwegian idyll where it all began. Meanwhile, you’ll have FTATP so you can work up your moves ahead of time. See you ‘doon the front’ when this distancing malarkey is abolished, ideally in the company of Ms Gry Hartvigsen.

ALL ABOARD FOR LOS RAMONES!
Apologies for the poor continuity at 9.49, 41.04 and a couple of other places, I did try to fix it but was just making things worse so I stopped. Sometimes it’s the only way to go. The music is all that matters.
