Covering a pariah can be fun...

Music Played Today


Meanwhile, here's what happened...

Nice sky first thing...


Usual early rise - new music Friday - trawling for new things...


Cosmic Cathedral, Goose, Billow Observatory and Scott Fields were good to have in particular...

Bryan Ferry released the instrumental version of his new LP - negating the painstaking work I did to produce the self same thing a couple of weeks back...

At breakfast, this wee moth entertained...


With Anne off to Zumba and the revamped version of Sparky's "Sin" in the inbox, I set about a remix, which, by the time Anne arrived back, had somehow morphed into a new CBQ EP, with covers of "It's a Sin" and Gary Glitter's "Rock'n'Roll"...


...which was quietly released after lunch...


Listening and surfing and, then, out around 3:30 and into town...

Drinks at the old Caley Cinema on Lothian Road...




...were followed by a walk up to our dinner venue, past a poster for tonight's concert...


No starter but a side of perfectly cooked chips accompanied two very juicy and succulent pizzas at L'artgiano...


And back down to the Usher Hall...


The view from the office this evening...


...for this...

A very enjoyable evening indeed...

Followed by a walk down to Shandwick Place...




...for two buses home...


...some listening...


..."Have I Got News For You" and, then, a Clint Eastwood film from 2018, "The Mule", which I enjoyed to then end but which, half way through, Anne fell asleep to and retired early...


Bed at 12:30 or so...

Good day...

Highlight of the Day : A Concert and an unexpected creation...
