Daughter

After breakfast a group of us headed back down to Braemar and climbed Morrone in dreadful clag, sheltered by the mobile phone gubbins, had a sandwich and headed back dow. Predictably it cleared up a wee bit as we went down. Back to the car and it was a dash back home, dump the gear, quick shower and a curry and through to Glasgow to see Daughter at the Old Fruitmarket.

It was slow going at the bar, I eventually worked out that half the audience was getting their ID checked…. no such problems for me…. It would appear that the fashion for wee lassies about 6th year age is too much red lipstick... just a wee observation. The boys need to calm back on the cosmetics as well...

I've seen them before but this time they've added a keyboard player/guitarist which the need to fill out the sound. A wonderful concert all round. Elena and Igor the guitarist are still painfully shy and Remi doesn't appear from the drum kit. Funny how they seem genuinely taken aback by the crowds reaction. You've only done two sellout UK tours and supported Beirut and The National, I guess you deserve it….
