I prefer Jesus And Mary Chain.
Bobby should have stuck to drumming.

Harry Lauder. The highest earning singer in the world in his day, and the best and definitive Scottish singer, or indeed, the best and most definitive singer in the world ever. You fucking plebs.

The correct answer is Sir Harry Lauder.
I have almost definitely heard Keep Right On To The End Of The Road more often than any other song.
I see Shenguin snook in while I was looking at Blues videos online.
He is right though.

I've got a potential joke I'm trying to form. Any comics/wordsmiths out there that can help? We can split the royalties 60/40.
Involves Donald Trump, Jimmy Nail, some hooky Oxford brogues and a cow dressed up as a wildebeest.

I like Primal Scream a lot.
Once they had ditched the C86 nonsense that is.
Teenage Fanclub, JAMC, LCD Soundsystem.
Course they're Scottish; James and Nancy just fake those accents. Their gig at Optimo has all these folks who weren't actually there claiming they were there.
Yes, the irony.

I've eaten far too much pizza/fries/chicken. I'm quite sleepy. I'm about to go make a Cappuccino using rod hull instead of milk. I believe that's what the cool kids on this forum call it.

Oh. And I'm glad no-one mentioned Belle and Sebastian.
Fucking twee west end bollocks.
Their combined influences should have spawned a better band.

Scottish Band Chat:
I once met Biffy Clyro at a house party in East Kilbride. They were 18 or so and had just signed their first record deal. As such they were insufferable wankers.
My flatmate at Uni was mates with the bassist from Franz Ferdinand. He was an insufferable wanker.
The lead singer from the Beta Band tried to gate crash another friends house party in Edinburgh, using the old "dont you know who i am?" line.
For his troubles he got punched square in the face. Insufferable wanker.
Belle and Sebastian were at another house party my sister was at. (Look, we have a lot of house parties in Scotland. We like a drink, this isn't news).
I think you know how she described them.
She also got perved on by Preston from the Ordinary Boys during an interview she was doing with him for Glasgow Unis music section of the Unis newspaper. She published the entire conversation verbatim, where he makes some pervy remark and she ends the interview telling him to "go fuck himself"
We don't always see eye to eye but she has her moments.

Had a phone call from the ringleader of the builders to confirm that they'll give us some peace over the weekend.
This after Pref.Mam. had to talk real fast today to the anti-fraud division of his bank to convince them that he had paid said builders more money than would get you space in a windowless container to the UK to fix the roof and outside walls of his house.
There's nothing the anti-fraud squad isn't suspicious of; when doing online banking they warn you of buying hot tubs and puppies (hot tub and puppy scam only available separately). Pre.Mam. has a hard time remembering passwords and PINs and has been locked out of his account before after he had an eye operation and couldn't read his card number without my help, which was the most unhelpful thing they could have done supposedly in the interest of the customer.

The Beta Band were amazing.
Thatsna pity Steve Mason went down that route. It's why I never want to meet my musical heroes.

I met 3 of Teenage Fanclub in a boozer. They did not seem to be insufferable wankers.
