She said, this is our time,  She said, this is our place-- This is the space my heart wants to be.

“Little darling, close your eyes, There'll be no compromising.” All the things she said, she said--

(With Simple Minds at Roseland Ballroom. Photographs by Riffchorusriff. October 24, 2013.... 

I’ve been thinking about how special this night was. It was my first time hearing the band live and the last show I attended at Roseland Ballroom before it was demolished in 2014. Although Kerr and company have been touring since 1977, this gig was only their 15th time playing somewhere in the city. 

According to simpleminds.org, they formerly hit both Trax and Hurrah’s in 1979, the Ritz in ‘81 and ‘83, Madison Square Garden and the Beacon Theatre in ‘84, Radio City Music Hall four times in ‘85, the Beacon in ‘91 and ‘94, the Brooklyn Academy of Music in ‘95, and the Beacon again in 2002. 

After their Roseland performance, lead singer/songwriter Jim Kerr dashed off this on the band’s website:

Last show of the North American tour, it was important to go out on a high. Thanks to the audience in New York for giving us more than we had hoped for. I put out a message/rallying cry here on Facebook last week asking for support at this gig. We got it! No doubt about that. Noticed familiar faces in the crowd, people came from far and wide. Across the ocean even. How amazing indeed. Also great to see so many of our old friends in the cities. We have missed you. Thank You!

Sadly, the band hasn’t ventured back to North America--let alone New York--since. Here’s hoping they won’t forget about us for too much longer.

Representing Gaelic: Ged Grimes, composer, musician, performer, and producer speaks to Duncan Robertson about remastering the Gaelic Bard's Tale IV soundtrack.

Back in 2018, InExile Entertainment released The Bard’s Tale IV: Barrows Deep. After a 30 year hibernation, the dungeon crawling franchise had finally been given a revival. The game saw its player lead a band of heroes through a mysterious celtic land. True to the series’ form, these heroes were guided through their journey by songs and melodies of elder days. When stumbling upon a town called…
