Potterrow is a small venue but it was packed! The energy from the band was off the scale!! Only time I saw them.

Guess what? We're back in Record Collector thanks to singles reviewer JR Moores – for some reason I can't find their Bluesky handles but it's @jetstreampony.bsky.social and @thelovelybasement.bsky.social -- both still available at Bandcamp ..

Very good! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
We were often side by side in the pub, The Grill on South Street!
It was friendly rivalry (we were definately better than them, though! πŸ˜‚)

It’s the first open decks of the year tomorrow, and - after a delve into the Eighties Indiepop Archive - I reckon I’ve settled on a selection very much like this.

Strong Perth contingent on show with our arch-nemisis, The Relations, in there, too! To be fair, Big Mans Shoes is a great tune! πŸ˜€
