I had bought 2 tickets to go and see the Reggae legend that is Jimmy Cliff at BaAD in Glasgow and although my son is not a particular fan of Reggae he was designated as my accompaniment for the evening, seeing as how I couldn’t find anyone else who wanted to purchase the other ticket.
A while ago I purchased tickets to see John Grant on Gumtree as the venue had sold out.
As I explained in a previous blog where I videoed The Filthy Tongues, I met the singer songwriter from that band, Martin Metcalfe, back in 2011 when he told me he used to be in Goodbye Mr Mackenzie.
My son is mainly into Heavy Metal but I thought I would try and educate him on Sixties music by taking him along to a Sixties Cover Band night in Falkirk Town Hall which is fairly close to where we live in Bo’ness.
I have taken my son to quite a few gigs since we have returned to Scotland and I asked if he was interested in going to see James at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh.
