| I'm brave enough to admit wearing a pair of khaki army shorts with
sewn-on tartan trimmings on stage once.

Looking at Q Magazine's summary of the 80s I realized that I had
virtually lost total interest in current pop/rock music by the time the
80s had arrived. This was evident by the fact that I really had not
heard of half the groups or the majority of big hits.
Analyzing this a bit further, I came to the conclusion that, for me,
the day the music started to die was when the Bay City Rollers appeared
on the scene, sometime in '75 I think! Adam Ant probably put the nail
in the coffin. U2 and Suzanne Vega convinced me that it had all been
done before.
Of course, I then realized that much of what happened in the 60s had
also been done before (withthe exception of a few notables). Hence my
interest in recent years in Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly etc.

| I've seen that Keith's first live band (seen that is) `Smokie' are
doing a tour at the moment. They're in the Hexagon sonetime this month
I think. So is the Great Daniel O'Donnell by the way.
