Short stories, music thoughts, medical trauma, and the rest. Wednesday, January 15, 2014. Dear K* * *,. I know it’s been forever and ever. Not sure if this email address even works anymore, so I’m sure I’ll find out soon enough if this gets returned after hitting send. Right now I’m listening to a recent album from the wonderful singer/songwriter Tracy Shedd. I’ve always kind of taken her talent for granted since first learning of her through one of those cheap Teen Beat Records. It was filled with my us...

http://bigplansforeverybody.blogspot.com/p/10cc-33-13-proposal.html
10CC -33 1/3 Proposal. 247 metres on the Medium Wave. Yeah, in the playground, I was king and I thought I knew it all. I knew Alvin Stardust’s real name. I knew the Glitter band had two drummers. I knew I felt a bit funny when I saw Suzi Quatro, but I didn’t know why. Only one band were a mystery…. We’ll start, song-by-song, with side one…. Halt its progress into the UK Top 10). 3 The pros and cons of tourism. And racism. And xenophobia. 8217; (Mick Jagger was 30 at the time). And the tunes…brimmin...

Big Plans For Everybody: Part Five “The First Record”
http://bigplansforeverybody.blogspot.com/p/part-five-first-record.html
Part Five “The First Record”. There is nothing I can say about this picture that will make it. Certain things in life are difficult. Explaining the rules of Cricket to a Frenchman, for example, or trying to look suave and impressive whilst eating Spaghetti. But these things pale into insignificance against The Most Difficult Thing in The World — trying to explain to your parents the function of the Bass Guitar. I love Throbbing Gristle! It was quite good! It sold about nine copies! See you later, Hepcats.

Big Plans For Everybody: November 2012
http://bigplansforeverybody.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, 25 November 2012. Yeah, it took 10CC to coax me out of retirement. It’s a good time to be a 10CC fan right now. In the space of about three weeks, I’ve seen loads of positive reviews for the loverlee ‘Tenology’ boxed set,. As well as major articles in The Guardian and Uncut. I knew sooner or later, the world would wake up and smell the java. (Leans back in chair, smugly…). So yeah, finally the 10CC boxed set that a handful of no life pop obsessives have been praying for. The tunes…well, it&...

Big Plans For Everybody: Part Seven: 'The Worst Gig Ever' #2: The Breedon Bar
http://bigplansforeverybody.blogspot.com/p/rushbos-guide-part-7-worst-gig-ever-2.html
Part Seven: 'The Worst Gig Ever' #2: The Breedon Bar. The late, lamented Breedon Bar.ah, the memories. Ah rehearsals…we shared a local rehearsal space with a local (and very successful) Prog Rock band called Ark. Very big in Italy they were, apparently. The facility was run by an affable chap called Fin, notable for being the Bassist in a Metal band called The Handsome Beasts. Never has a band been LESS aptly named. Now this is where the story starts…. It just needs cleaning, that's all.'. 8217; he point...
