About Me |
|
| N.B. PLAY THE SONGS LOUDLY - slight case of studio under-recording!
I'm from Scotland (presently living in Glasgow) and have been involved with music all my life - mother was a professional singer, father sang too and played piano, accordion, and fiddle so I didn't have much choice! I worked for 15 years in professional rock bands and God-knows-how-long semi-pro mainly singing but also playing guitar or bass before getting into the teaching profession (Spanish/Italian and now I.T.). I write a lot of songs and worked for a while musically with Alex Mack - a talented multi-instrumentalist, writer and performer - in THE OUTFIT. In March 2005, we produced a studio album recorded with the involvement of Ted McKenna and Chris Glen of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band. I have some songs from the album plus a live track at my MySpace Music site. The management side of running a band drove me nuts so I'm now doing solo work showcasing those of my songs which fit better in the singer/songwriter category. |

May Monday Holiday at The Clutha |
|
| Two weeks in a row where the public well outnumbered the performers! Pretty good if you want to sell a CD, not so hot if poor ol' Bobby's got to play half the night. I approached the matter philosophi... Posted by Bob Leslie on Tue, 27 May 2008 01:46:00 PST |

19th May 2008 Clutha Open Mic |
|
| A strange night - usually we have a plenitude of performers and a modicum of members of the public. Tonight, 'twas all in reverse. Still, the punters seemed to be having a good time so all was to the ... Posted by Bob Leslie on Tue, 20 May 2008 04:27:00 PST |

Monday at the Clutha 12th May 2008 |

Open Mic in the Clutha: Monday 6th May 2008 |

| Probably the best night yet for the Monday Open Mic. It was a bit quiet to start with so I had a chance to try out a few new covers, "Bird On A Wire" and RB Morris's "Roy" went down well, and did my o... Posted by Bob Leslie on Tue, 06 May 2008 08:01:00 PST |
