Nae idea why but I fancy us to sneak this 1-0 the Dandies (Nisbet)

Finished 0-1 to Racing meaning Boca finish season trophy less. Second half was bit better.

Sounds good that, going to gigs with your daughters. No chance my sons would go to a gig with me. Too big a clash of tastes. I agree with you comments about six music. We might be old, but our coin will be more than welcome, as nigh on impossible for bands to make a living from music now. A lot of youngsters don't want to pay for music and record companies would rather sell the records of their legacy acts than support new bands or singers. If I'm at a gig of a new band or a new band is supporting an established act, I always try and buy some of their merchandise to help them out.

Was at the game, some atmosphere in our end. Fair play to all the young lads that have got the ultras going - great variety of chants now. Even Jesper Karlsson has now taken the Peter Pawlett one. I don't think - from his time in opposition and playing for Scotland - I really appreciated just how good a player Stuart Armstrong was. Not always flashy, but when you're under the cosh give it to him and he'll go on a run with it and holds onto it so well. So unlucky not to score from that free-kick too.

Pretty flat game so far. Neither side creating much in the way of chances. Not sure I am going to stay up for 2nd half.

Just back from the Squeeze and Madness gig. Squeeze were so, so good. You'd have to be a very confident band to let a group like Squeeze open for you then have to follow them. No problem for Madness, they have the playing live lark down to an artform. Got a lot of the more unknown hits from their extensive catalogue, which was music to my ears. Tonight was my penultimate gig of the year. I have an ABBA tribute gig at the music hall in two weeks, to finish of the year. I love ABBA. Next year I finally getting to see my all time favourites Kraftwerk down in Manchester. They played the Capitol, Aberdeen , back in 1991 and Karl Bartos was still with them. None of my pals fancied it, as they were quite as reverred as they are now, so didn't bother going. We'll see them next time they are up I said! Better late than never, even though they have become their own tribute band. I'd also like to catch Sparks live too and with Ron in his 80s and Russell not far off, I'd better try and get something sorted.

Touch and go for a supporters club ticket - I'm on 13 points. I usually go to at least one away game per campaign which helps, but I've not been to one for 18 months - so my points have dropped.

I go to a lot of gigs with my daughters and we seek out new bands in small venues, usually in Glasgow. They always joke that they are often the only ones aged under 50. It’s the 6music dad effect. Guys like me hearing new music that’s based on old music and in small venues that remind me of the gigs I used to go to. Young team seem to prefer festivals and big venues. Must be soul destroying being 18, in a band and starting out your gig circuit and when you look out over the audience it’s full of bald guys in their 50s nodding their heads knowingly.

Boca Juniors v Racing Club on premier sports 2 just now if anyone hasn’t sat watching enough football today. Some atmosphere at the game.

It seems pumping the Jambos isn’t for everyone.

That's the sort of thing that could appear in a "stuff" thread.

The Tourists -So Good to be Back Home Again

Or they wont accept those with erectile disfunction?

Fergal Sharkey - A Good Heart

Maybe it means don't move the club west to Kingsford?

Ripple - Good neighbours

Is no left turns something to do with our inverted wingers?

Barry Crocker - Neighbours

Was it The Red Avenger?

He’s putting in a red counter when there is already patently 4 yellows in a row. The game is over. Sloppy

Woh, hud on a second there missus I am never sloppy

^^ Ha, I was just thinking the AI slop will be going crazy with Nancy. He’s very memeable (that really should be a word). The AI stuff scares me though, a seemingly intelligent friend was recently fooled by something mindbogglingly ridiculous because of how genuine it appeared. I couldn’t even take the piss as I was so horrified. its like a new toy now, will hopefully die a death soon enough

Wasn’t it always the same? I got into music playing my mum’s 45s and 78s from the 50s and 60s. I remember at secondary school we were all swapping Hendrix, Clapton, The Clash, whatever, while also listening to our own era. My kids have mined my vinyl. I think every generation does that. Music is timeless (or the good stuff anyway) and any young kid with a love for it will look beyond the current hits.
