    Aye and how did she end up in a posh school if her folks were just normal working folk.

    One thing that's troubling me though. If I'm getting my bearings right would she nae of been UP the road from the slaughterhouse rather than doon it.

    No Sirens of Titan, Time Passages, On The Border, Night Train To Munich, Primo, Flying Sorcery, Almost Lucy, Year of the Cat, Broadway Hotel, Eight Arms To Hold you, Lord Grenville, Warren Harding.

    Great banter with the audience, as well as a fantastic performance.

    Small world I was also at that gig. I saw him about 3 years previously at the Queens Hall in Edinburgh. After the pavilion gig myself and a couple other fans went for a drink with him wee pub down the road. Al asked the barman what kind of wine he had "red and white says the barman.. I'll have a pernod says Al lovely guy.

    How was the concert? Did he play Roads To Moscow for you? I didn’t “get” the last few verses until I saw an interview with Al and this was one of many songs that he explained the meaning of. What a great story teller.

    The Its_a_goal reference is actually for Henning Boel.

    Annihilator, St Lukes, Glasgow, 13/10/19

    New venue for me. I like it. Right next to the Barrowlands(Where there was a huge queue of older clientel getting ready for Midve Ure) A converted church round the corner i found myself in

    I saw Annihilator a few years back and they were supported by a quality band called Archer. Same support tonight, but are now called Archer Nation. Decent. Like Megadeth but not like Megadeth if that makes sense. F@cking quality band anyway.

    Annihilator are f@cking quality live. Tight as f@ck and they look like they have really good fun doing it. Jeff Waters is a great frontman. 53 he said he was, he doesnt look it at all. He seem like a really down to earth dude. Classics like "Phantasmogoria", "King of the Kill" "Welcome to your Death" in there. No "Alison Hell" as they ran out of time. Couple of new tunes from their upcoming album which were f@cking rocking.

    Good venue, good bands, horrific weather

    Have you ever watched the Roadrunner United making of? Reckon it would be right up your street. Anyway, there’s a bit in it where Waters is shredding, about 17 mins in.
