Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – Bronto Skylift
And Now for Something Completely Different….. There has been an overly large percentage of indie-folk bands in the past few months.

Indelible Ink : The Wasp Factory
Sometimes a writer comes along who is difficult to categorise, who doesn’t fit easily into any genre. Iain Banks is one such writer. Of course as Iain M. Banks, his other writing title, he is an out and out sci-fi novelist, but even that isn’t as clear cut as it at first appears.

Indelible Ink: Special Edition ‘The Year of Open Doors’
‘Novels are full of padding, they’re clearly objectionable’ Paul Reekie ‘Submission’ The above quote is one of my favourites and comes from the 1996 short story collection ‘Children of Albion Rovers’. It is the way I feel about many novels, and neatly sums up why I have such a love for the short story.

Peenko’s Scots Way-Hay! – The Seventeenth Century
It was roughly about a month ago that I was up at the goNorth festival, and I came back raving about a couple of bands that are based in Glasgow. Don’t you just love the irony of me travelling hundreds of miles to catch artists that I could quite easily see in my own backyard? […]
