  Speaker 1: Welcome to another episode of Not Another Football Podcast with myself,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Simon Donnelly and Jackie McNamara and we're delighted that we
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: have the one and only George Bowie with us today.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: He doesn't know that much about football so that's going
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: to be interesting, that's going to be exciting. How are
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: you doing? I'm good guys, nice to see you both.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: Everything good?
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Everything's great. My mum's got the right thing for Jackie,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: she's going to be buzzing that I'm on this by
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: the way. She loves Jackie a bit.
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: I assume you would be the older ladies and grannies.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Well, this is my mum jacket. Back in the day,
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: it was the mums and the grannies.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: Is that a jacket thing or a Celtic thing?
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: It's a jacket thing.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure it's supposed to be a Celtic thing,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: but it's a jacket thing. My dad was a Rangers fan,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: my mum was a Celtic fan. That's why I became
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: a Morton fan. I didn't want to get involved. You're
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: a big Morton fan. Just keep out of it, exactly. Well,
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I would say big, but I used to have a
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: season ticket, but I stopped one a few years ago.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: I used to go to my pal's. And it was just,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: it was good fun. We all went together and then
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: there was less and less of us going in and
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: suddenly it was just like two or three of us
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: and we all just kind of thought.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Difficult times now for Mark, eh?
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: I'm just struggling really badly. I'm just going to the manager.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Do you have values? No, I'm going the right way, Ian.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: I like him, but as you said, I'd spoke to
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: him in the summer and he did say that they
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: were going to really struggle.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: I think their sponsor went with financial problems or something
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: like that, right? And it's just, aye.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: It's a good club though, I mean, I used to
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: go and watch Morton when my dad was assistant manager
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: with Alan Lebrun.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: He was some boy, Alan Lebrun. He was great, he
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: was a gentleman. We were in the Premier League at
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: the time. Third oldest club in Scotland, I think.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: That's what I was about to say, a bit of
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: history behind the club, isn't it? So hopefully they can
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: get through it, but difficult times for them.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of clubs are feeling that, but Morton,
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: what's on there? Aye, we're not staying up, that's for sure. But,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: what it is?
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: You never know. So, 38 years at Clyde.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Long time.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Unbelievable. How did you start there? Can you remember everything?
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: I started behind the scenes. I mean, obviously you're in
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: there as well, so you'll know how it works. But
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: as I started, my first shift was I was answering
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: the phones on the open line. So I did that.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: So I think I started about four in the afternoon
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: until six in the morning. That was my hours on
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: a Saturday. And I'd go in, answer the phone lines.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Who was doing the open line at that time then?
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: Um... It was, let me think, who was it? It
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: was after Jimmy Sanderson. I've never seen Jimmy Sanderson. Who
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: was doing it? Let me think.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Hugh.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Hugh was there. Paul Cooney was there. Paul was hosting.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Paul was hosting. And Derek Johnson. So it was basically
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Hugh and Derek and Paul. It wasn't really like it
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: is now where it was different pundits all the time.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: It was basically a mainstay of pundits. And they only
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: did the one show. They only did the Saturday show.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: And that was it. Now you get something.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I remember listening to it in my bedroom years ago
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: to think then years later I'd be sitting there.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: I know, being part of it. Mad. You were still
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: coming out with the same pattern.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: So you just started doing the phones then?
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Well, that was the start of my shift. And then
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: there would be an American chart on after it. So
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: I'd run the tapes on that for three hours. And
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: then we would do a show live from a nightclub.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: So I would finish running the America's Chart Show and
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: then go out and set up a nightclub. And they
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: would have like Tiger Tim or Gary Marshall or Ross
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: King or one of these guys coming from a nightclub.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: And then I would go back and they would, there
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: was a thing back then which people find hard to believe,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: but it was generally true. They had this thing called
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: needle time. And you're only allowed to play, I think,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: maybe six or seven hours of music a day. So
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: you had to find ways. And this was only up
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: until 1990. So it wasn't that long ago. You had
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: to find ways of padding out. And this, I mean,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: it must have sounded terrible. They used to repeat the
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: commentary from Super Scoreboard.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Highlights?
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Not even highlights, full commentary of a game. It could
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: be like Celtic and Hearts or Rangers and Hubs, you
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? And they'd play the full game,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: the full commentary, because it would fill like 90 minutes
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: or whatever at 2 o'clock in the morning. So I
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: would need to go back and run that. Yeah. And
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: then they had an hour of classical music because that's
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: how they got around it. They were allowed to play
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: classical music if it was over a certain age, then
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: they didn't have to be needle time, whatever it's called.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: And I had to run that. And my very first shift, apparently,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: and I only found out weeks later, I played an
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: hour of classical music backwards because it was reel to reel. Yeah.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: And somebody hadn't rewound the reel properly. And I just thought,
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: that man's going to notice. But it was five o'clock
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: in the morning, so nobody noticed. And by the time
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: they found out, I'd kind of settled in. So I
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: got to keep my job. I think if they'd found
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: out on the Monday, I probably wouldn't have been there.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: But that was my baptism of fire at Radio Clyde.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: So you were more the music then? You weren't wanting
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: to go down the sport line?
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: No, I never really wanted to go down the sport line,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: I never fancied it, my son does, he works on
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Super Scoreboard now as you know, but I was never
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: that big into football, I liked it but I was
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: never right into football, you know what I mean, the
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: way my boy is, and I was right into the music,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: I always wanted to like, as a frustrated musician, I
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: always wanted to be in a band but I was
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: never good enough, you know what I mean, you could
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: play a Keyboard's a wee bit, bass a bit, and
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: guitar a bit, but never good enough to actually be
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: a musician. So I thought, I'll just play records. And now, ironically,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: I make music because I've got my recording studio, so
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: we do tunes. But yeah, initially, I just wanted to
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: be a music DJ, which I think it's about, I've
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: described it before as a referee who's a frustrated footballer
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: who's never good enough to play. If you weren't good
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: enough to be in a band, you'd become a DJ. Right.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: So obviously, then you get into that, and I mean,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: 38 years... Time span is incredible there. So you must
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: have seen so many different artists through the years.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Aye, I've seen so many artists come and go and
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: so many changes in music and what have you. Just
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: the way radio is presented, you know what I mean?
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: It's just like, to still be hanging on there surprises me.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Have you had to.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Adapt with that, with the times as well? Things you
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: were okay to say 38 years ago, but not today.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, all the time. Like even today, I can't remember
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: what I said, but I said something like, oh, can
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: I say that now? I was like, people say that
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: four years ago it's like it's crazy it's like oh
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: god if I listened to some of the shows I
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: did back in the early 90s I'd probably be cancelled
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: now you know what I mean because yeah times have
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: changed radio's changed it's and it's funny you're talking about
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: artists because there are people coming through that are coming
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: in as new artists that then become global superstars and
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: then disappear you know what I mean.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: And I think that as well we were talking about
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: Cammie Barnes earlier on I think that's They have to
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: do things now to get themselves out, you know, little
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: bits on social media and stuff. Do you find that
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: now with the kind of soundbites on the radio, it's similar?
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: All the time. We're making wee videos like it used
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: to be you were just going to do a radio show.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Now there's a camera. Every time the mics are open,
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: a camera films you. And they'll sit and they'll edit
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: it up and they'll take wee bits off the show
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: and just do wee social contacts because that's what you've
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: got to do. That's the world we live in now.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: That's fine. I've got no problem with that. It's fun.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: if it's a good wee fun bit that people might
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: have missed on the radio and they'll see it you
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: know I've made a few mistakes live though oh aye
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: I make a lot of mistakes live but that's part
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: of the fun as well Jack you know what I
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: mean it's like it's not like when you guys are
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: playing football everything has to be 100% you can't make
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: a bad pass or whatever if we mess up then
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: it's fun it's almost like being in pantomime you know
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: what I mean it's part of the part of the
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: gag so it's good it's fun I really enjoy it
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I would say and I've said this to a few
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: people recently I'm having more fun now than at any
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: point in my life I think it's because my kids
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: are all growing up and if they told me tomorrow
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: it's all over I'd be heartbroken but it wouldn't define
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: me whereas before it was oh my god I need
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: to be careful I don't want to lose my job
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean I've got a young family
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: and everything now I'm just I'm just going on and
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: just having fun and just doing it and it's great
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: and just enjoying it and working with a great.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Bunch of people and your studios as well we've.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: Just moved to 100 Queen Street so it's overlooking the
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Duke of Ellington statue which is about as Scottish as
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: you can get really so it's a great location to
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: be in and I live in the town so it's
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: handy and it's fun it's a squish and it's just
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: it's great it's a great job.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: Have you ever thought about going to the TV.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Never fancied TV Jackie I'm not really fancied Get the
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: face up, tell you, I don't know.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: You're on camera now anyway.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: You're on camera now anyway. TV for me, I tried
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: a bit of it when I was younger and I
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: never enjoyed it because it was too controlled. Whereas radio,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: you just go in and it's sporadic. You just open
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: up the microphone and you just go for it. I mean,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: there's a bit of preparation goes in, but a lot
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: of it's just like, you just stand up on the
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: stage and tell your story, you know what I mean?
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: And that's what radio is. Whereas TV, it's all scripted. Right,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: can we do that again? Can we do it from
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: a different angle? And radio is just life.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Off the cuff.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: And it's fun and it's off the cuff. And I
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: know you get live TV shows with a few and
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: far between. And it just wasn't for me. I didn't
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: really enjoy it.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: What about partners over the years? Obviously you get Cassie,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: just different ones over the years.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Cassie just now, Siobhan, who you guys have had on
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: the show. She was great fun as well. You know
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: what I mean? Des McLean, the comedian, he used to
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: do stuff with me back in the day. That was
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: good fun. But it was a bit laddy, the two
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: of us. I think it was your show that Kaz
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: phoned me. Aye, because we had a forfeit. Yeah.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: And I thought there was something wrong with her. I
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: don't know what to tell you about that. So she
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: phoned me. She said, hi, it's Kaz here. Omar Stuart McMillan,
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: her dad. He's passed away now, unfortunately. But at the time,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: she says, oh, I'm Omar's daughter and start talking away.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: And I said, how's your dad? And she said, oh,
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: he's no good now.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: And But that was true. He was in a home
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: and he was deteriorating badly. I think you thought that
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: was a wind-up. I thought that. that wasn't a wind
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: up I can't remember what a wind up was you
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: don't remember?
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: I can't remember what a wind up was you tried
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: to get me to say something it was something bizarre
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: I'm like.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Sometimes they do it with songs it would be like
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Oasis or something like that and you'd have to get
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: as many titles into them I've seen you do that
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: so I basically what happened was we used to do
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: this competition called Stop the Bus And you and Cameron
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: would host it. And me and Cassie would go up
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: against each other. So it'd be like, I'm trying to
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: think how we'd do it. It'd be like four towns
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: in the west of Scotland or something like that. And
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: you'd have to shout them out. And I used to
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: win every week. It had to have a forfeit for
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: the loser, and poor Cassie almost had to do the forfeit.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: So the forfeit was you had to hand over your
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: phone and we'd just spin it, and then whoever it
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: stopped at, you had to phone them and do whatever
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: the forfeit was, like get as many Oasis titles into
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: the conversation or whatever.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Where was this?
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: No, it was a good few years ago. It was
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: a good few years ago. I don't even know why
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: your number was in Cassie's phone. I don't either. We're
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: still filming. The cameras went blank there. I don't know
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: what happened. Off air. It must have been something with
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: her dad or something. It must have been something. You
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: were doing something for Casper Gadsden. Because people probably don't know,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: but Cassie's dad was very much part of the Scotland set-up.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: He was. He was with Bertie Vokes. And he was
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Craig Brown's assistant.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: He was always at 98. He was at 98 when
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: I was in the World Cup. And obviously many years
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: before that as well.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Because I think he was Craig Brown's assistant at Clyde.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Aye.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: And Craig brought him in and he did the massages
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: and bought the sweets for us.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: I don't, anybody, I don't, did you ever get a
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: massage over him?
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: I don't think he'd actually done any massages. I don't
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: think he did. He knew how to give a massage,
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: but that was his title. He just talked to everybody
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: and gave you sweeties. Aye.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: Which is quite wrong in today's thing, aye.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Famous, I know, I mean, you're a good guy. You're
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: a footballer, you shouldn't be sitting eating Mars bars for games.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: I'd probably be wrong in the World Cup.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: Aye.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Too much sugar. But yeah, other partners then over the years, just.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: So I had those guys. Hugh Keevans was, when the
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: show first started, Hugh was kind of like my sidekick.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? It was funny because before
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: I did it, it was always just the presenter would
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: go on and they wouldn't have anyone else. And I
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: wanted to branch it out and have more people involved
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: and more of a conversation and make it more fun.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: It was very like, Clyde's Breakfast Show before I did
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: it was more kind of very informative and it was
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: all about news, sport, travel and here's some songs and
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: here's what's in the headlines today, but I wanted to
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: make it more of a carry on as it is now.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: And that's what we did. And it was very difficult
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: to convince him to let me change it. It was
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: so difficult. But we got there. We got there in
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: the end and it worked out. And, you know, that's
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: nearly 30 years I've been doing that show. It'll be
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: 30 years in April.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: That's incredible. And GBX obviously came.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Even before it.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: It became everybody's kind of getting ready before they went
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: out kind of stuff, wasn't it, on the radio?
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: It's funny, GBX just started and it was on Clyde
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: for like, It's incredible. 20-odd years. Now it's everywhere. You
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: get it. It's all over Scotland. It goes out in
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: seven different stations in Scotland. It goes out in Northern
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Ireland as well. It goes out everywhere. It's just like crazy. So, aye,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: GBX has been great because that's what I'm into. That's
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: my thing. Obviously, the music they play, Clyde, during the
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: day is what people want to hear, but Saturday night's
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: my thing.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: What is your kind of music influences for your stuff?
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: I loved all the kind of electric stuff when I
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: was like a kid, you know, in the 80s, all
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: the bands that were like Ultravolts and bands that had
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: to play keyboards and things like that. I was right
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: into all that kind of stuff. And I was a
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: big David Bowie fan when I was very young because
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: of the name probably throwing me towards it.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: My uncle used to say he was relation A or no?
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Don't just tell everybody. Yeah, I think I probably did
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: tell everyone that. And there's a singer just now, Callum Bowie,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: and he says everywhere he goes, people say, are you
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: George Bowie's son? LAUGHTER so he's convinced by that but
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: yeah I think that's what kind of drew so I
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: was a big kind of Dubai fan when I was
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: a kid and got right into all the electric stuff
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: and I think that's how I probably started DJing then
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: you take that.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Obviously into a kind of show as well nightclubs my dad.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: Owned nightclubs so my dad owned what is now The
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Garage in Sucky Hall Street and there was a club
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: The Penthouse above the Apollo remember the legendary Apollo probably
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: before your time you'll have heard of it it was
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: a legendary live venue in Glasgow just across from the
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: pavilion in Renfield Street. So he owned the nightclub above that.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: And he had a few places in town. He had
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: a place in New York at one point as well.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: So he had a few clubs.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Did you play there?
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: No. God, I was like six or something at the time.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: So this is when I was a wee boy. I'm
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: talking like in the 70s during the disco era or something.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: So that's how I got into it. When I was
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: like 13, 14, he would take me in and told
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: me I could sit behind the DJ box. I was
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: too young to stand at the door or be at
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: the bar. So you'd get a choice of the DJ
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: box or the cloakroom, what you're going to take.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so obviously that was your making then.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: And that was it. And back then, the club used
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: to buy the records. So there was all these records
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: lying there, and they said, I'll just take the old
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: ones up the road. So I took all the records
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: up the road and used to record myself kidding on
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: I was a DJ and stuff like that, which is
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: a little bit tragic when you think.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: About it now.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: But it served me well. It's like you guys. kicking
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: a ball out the back.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Aye, it leads to your career basically. So obviously you
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: go out with the GBX stuff. Was that your idea
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: to take that from the radio?
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Yes. Between me and my missus really, we came up
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: with the idea of taking it. She came up with
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: the name GBX because it was the GB experience initially.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: And she said, GBX is a lot, it'll look better,
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: it'll sound better.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: That's why we came up with the name GBX and
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: then we started doing gigs and going out and about
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: and doing events. It's great fun. I love doing the
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: live stuff. See the festivals. That's my favourite thing. I
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: think I did 21 festivals this year. Got to play
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Transmit and got to play out in Miami for the
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: World Cup stuff. It was amazing.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Was that before the games out there?
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: It was the night before the Ilfe Brazil game. So, aye,
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: it was great.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: It must be great going and doing those kinds of gigs.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: What's your favourite it's been over the year then?
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: Well, I would think for me, getting to play Transmit
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: was the most amazing moment because that's always been a dream.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: It was always teeing the part and then when teeing
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: the part stopped, it was like Transmit and I kept
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: asking them, I don't know if it would work, don't
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: know if it would work. And then they said, actually,
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: we're going to show the game and then Richard Ashcroft's
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: going to finish and there's a wee space can you
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: and Cammie come on too? Because me and Cammie obviously
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: did Whiskey Roll. So Cammie came on and we did
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: Whiskey Roll and then I went into a DJ set
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: and they were just all bouncing about. And it was
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: great because I think they did a later ticket. So
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: rather than, you could buy an extra ticket or a
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: separate ticket where you got in at like 7 o'clock
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: at night and you just saw Richard Ashcroft and then us.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: In the game. Was that the Morocco game?
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: That was the Morocco game, yeah.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: Because we were around the corner, remember that? St Luke's.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: St Luke's, yeah. I think everywhere was bouncing that night
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: because there was optimism at that point, you know what
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: I mean? I think after the Morocco gave us God.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: There always is.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: There always is.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: We always start with the optimism and then it quickly fades.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: It quickly fades. I mean, even the other night, it was, oh, wow,
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: we're looking great on Saturday. And it was like, five
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: to three, nothing. I've been quite lucky, though, with the
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: music because I've done, obviously, a lot of songs that
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: have been adopted as Scottish anthems. So I found, like,
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: In the summer, my Spotify just went through the roof.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: It was mental because everyone was streaming Bits and Pieces
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: and Yes Sir, I Can Boogie and all that kind
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: of stuff and songs that I've done, which are associated
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: with Scotland. So that was great for me. It was
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: good fun.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: So can I move on to what other interests have
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: you got? You said about sport. Your football, what about
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: anything else?
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Boxing, right into boxing.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: You must have met a few over the years.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: What, sportsmen?
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Yes, I guess, so I'm not sure.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: He had Usain Bolt on once right I tried to
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: get him to sign for Morton but he.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: Wasn't he did play football though didn't he no I
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: think he played a wee bit yeah I think he
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: said his.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: Dream was to play for Man United or something and
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: then I think maybe he played for was.
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: It what a jam club or something he signed up
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: and he played in the he played in a few
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: charity games he was youthful he was a quick guy
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: but he was quick I don't know how he was
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: with the ball it's.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Only half of it isn't it take the ball with
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: you Usain So we did this spoof thing about how
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: he was going to sign for Morton and all that
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: and then suddenly it was in all the papers that
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Usain Bolt was going to sign for Morton. It was
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: just me and him having a laugh really. But he's
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: probably the most famous. I did find out that Tyson
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: Fury followed me on Twitter which was quite cool because
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: apparently he's right into all that kind of bouncy GVX
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: style music.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: So did you do anything had the opportunity to do
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: anything at the fights before over the years no did.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: I have no I don't think I had actually I
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: DJ'd at Josh Taylor's wedding I was about as close
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: to it as I got I think Ricky wanted me
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: to do something it never happened when Ricky Burns was
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: doing the SEC fights I'm sure we spoke about doing
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: something but it never came to anything but hopefully one
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: day I'll get to I've done a few white collar
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: fights and stuff.
• 19:36

• 20:11
  Speaker 2: fights so we need to do it now I'm too
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: old for it now but I'm talking 15-20 years ago
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: I used to do quite a lot it was great
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: I loved it I loved it it was great fitness
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: it was something to aim for I still I don't
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: even spar anymore I just go in and do the
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: bag but I still go in and punch a bag
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: three or four times a week you know what I
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: mean still love it it's great fitness it's just.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: My wee happy place we did a wee bit at
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: a party we took the boys was it Catholic?
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Catholic yeah did a boxing I helped Oh, it's hard going.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: That was more like the MMA fight, you know. You're
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: punching the bags, but you're kicking as well.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't fancy that. No.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: What about your most difficult guests over the years? Somebody
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: that you maybe thought... You two.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: No. Most difficult guests. Most of the guests, I get
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: asked that quite a lot by people.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Does anybody kind of let you down? that you've went
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: to meet?
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, God, there's been a few. But most people are
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: really nice. And you'll find this in here as well,
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: that people will come in and they'll have something to
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: promote or whatever, or they won't want to look like
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: a nasty piece of work. So they'll put on the
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: best version of themselves. But there's been one or two.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: Jess Glynn was horrendous. Jess Glynn came in and I
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: said to her, like she'd been announced for Transmit. I
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: don't know if she was just having a bad day
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: or whatever. This never went out on air. We never
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: broadcast it. I wanted to put it out, but my
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: boss was like, no, you can't put that out. So
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: Jess Glynn came in and I said, so I see
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: you're playing Transmit in a couple of weeks' time. I said,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: that's going to be exciting. I said, what are you
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: going to do? What's the plan? What's in the show
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: for Transmit? Thinking that was a good local story. I said, well,
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: do you think I'm going to sit here and tell
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: you my entire set list for a festival? I said,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: I just thought, obviously, you're going to do the Clean
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Bandit stuff, because you did a lot of collaborations with
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: other people. I thought, is it just going to be
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: your own songs? You're going to do some of the collabs?
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: There's a wee surprise cover in there. Maybe someone's going
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: to come out on stage. Tell me all about it.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to sit here and tell you everything
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: that I'm going to do. Wow.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Is that why you're doing an interview?
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: And I said, well, why are you here? See when
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: you're up. So I thought. I would find that really
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: hard to think. Why don't you fuck? Aye, well that's
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: basically what I did. I was like, fuck it, here
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: we go. I said, get out of here. See when
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: you're on a plane, right? And you hear that, take
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: my hand song. I said, do you feel the same
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: way as us? And go, oh God. And every time
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: you're on a Jet 2 flight, and she went, I
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: wouldn't travel on Jet 2. Oh wow. So Cassie was like,
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: I'm travelling Jet 2 tomorrow. I'm going on holiday. And
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: I'm going to see my mum and dad in Spain.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: and thanks for telling me where you're going on holiday,
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: like I'm really interested and I just kept going so
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: of course we were just pushing it further and all
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: that kind of stuff it just became like a rammy
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: it was mental and I'm thinking why would you, because
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: we didn't go and say can Jess Glenn come on
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: the show, they came to us.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: And said can we come on here it was great
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: that was so awkward that would.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Be But that's what you're up against. Why would you
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: want it and all?
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: No.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: Just keep going with them and then answers, it's mental.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: Majority of people are great. Who's your favourite then? My
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: favourite is probably George Michael. Obviously sadly not longer with
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: us but he was just great. Just because I think
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: I was a huge fan and I was a wee
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: bit nervous about meeting him.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: Interviewing him and.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: What what year would that be then what would oh.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: When was that that was about 20 years ago maybe.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: He was here in Clyde he.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: Did come to Clyde but I didn't do that interview
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: he came to Clyde once this one was down in
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: London so I flew down to London and he was
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: having a bad day and it wasn't going well and
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: all the other interviews were getting cut short and I
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: was meant to do I think 20 minutes with.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Him Hi guys, as you probably well know by now,
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: we have signed up for the London Marathon next April
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: and we have some fantastic people supporting us, groups supporting us.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: We're doing it for a fantastic cause, or two causes,
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: who are we doing it for?
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: We're doing it for Headway UK and the Concilium Sports Foundation.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Yep, so we're going to have some updated videos of
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: our progress and our training and everything else it takes
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: to get us over the line. He's emphasised that time
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: I probably agree, as long as.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: We complete it. There'll be a link in the bio
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: for any charity donations. We're going to be raising as
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: much money as we can over the next period of time.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Our training starts very soon. And yeah, look forward to
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: some updates on here. Hopefully no injuries.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: And we're going to turn it into an hour-long special,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: fill it up with music and what have you. So
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: I get told it would only be 10 minutes, possibly five,
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: depending on how George was feeling, because it had me going, oh, Christ.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: But we just had it all. It was great. And
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: after about 45 minutes, I had to wind the interview up.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: And it just clicked. It was great. And it's just because, again,
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: talking about the club that my dad owned above the Apollo,
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: when they first started to play the Apollo, and I'd
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: been at the gig, because my dad used to get
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: me into all the gigs. and like people forget when
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Wham first started they were actually a really cool band
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: I know it got very cheesy but that first album
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: was like really cool and that we went to see
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: him live and I was talking about that and he
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: understood that I got it and that was up and
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: he just opened up to me and he was great
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: and then about a week later his management phoned and
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: asked if I would support him at Hamden because I
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: told him that I was you know DJing and stuff
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: and He was one of my inspirations for being a DJ.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: And he said, would you like to come and play?
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: George wants to know if you'd like to come and
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: open for him at Hampden, which I did. And it
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: was amazing. You went and did it, right? I went
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: and did it. It took my son Ross along, who
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: was only about 13 at the time or something. Yeah,
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: it was brilliant.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: So there's the wee quirks of your job over there.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: There's the people you've met.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: You just don't know.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: You're playing live with Rob. I know.
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: Suddenly you're on with that. It was great. So yeah,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: I got to do some good supports over there. I
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: got to support Pink at Hampden as well. I supported
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: Robbie a few times. He was a good lad. And yeah,
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: it's been great. I've been really lucky. I've been really blessed.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? See, when I look back
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: on it, this has been some life. You know what
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: I mean?
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Is the pink one the recent one?
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: No, that was, again, about 20 years. No, maybe a
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: bit less than that. Maybe about 12. Maybe about 2010, maybe. So,
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: a good while ago. It was the one when she
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: was doing all the trapeze stuff. And then she does
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: that next thing. She fell on her herself, didn't she?
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: When she used to go up, climb up and stuff.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Amazing. It's been great.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: So would you say the 80s were the best decade? No, no. No.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: I found out I was talking about this on the
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: radio the other day. I think people that think the
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: 80s were the best decade, and I'll probably get a
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: credit for saying this, but people who were not alive
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: in the 80s, the 80s was a horrible time, right?
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, there was so much hatred in the 80s.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You're going 90s.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: I'm 90s all the way. The rave scene. The rave era.
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: I'll say the 80s. It was so much... fighting and,
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: you know, the football violence and the minor strike violence and,
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: you know, poll tax riots and there's so many horrible
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: things in the 80s that people forget about. They think
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: it's all glam and perms and tans and all that
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: and happy music. It was actually a very dark, horrible
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: time in the 80s. See, the 90s when it just
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: opened up and it was a rave scene and everyone just...
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: It was all about love and just everyone... Going out
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: and having a good time and just enjoying yourself. Clubs
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: were at their peak. The 90s was an amazing time.
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: I wasn't a fan of the 80s at all.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Did you ever go to the Metro in the air?
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: All the time. Yeah, I used to play the Metro
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: a lot.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: I was about to say, did you play as well?
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: One of my best mates, Joe Deacon, was a resident there.
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: So me and Joe have been pals for 40 years,
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? And he's just a gem
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: of a man.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: We used to have the wee cassettes.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: That's right, Metro tape. I mean, I don't know how
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: legal they were. No, probably not at all. But Joe
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: Deacon Metro tape was legendary. Everybody had one of those.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: It was great. Metro was a special place because it
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: was a bit more commercial than the other clubs, you
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? And it just had something. It
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: was a kind of euphoric feeling when you went in.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: It was just all big anthems, particularly when Joe was on.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: And he just knew how to work a crowd, you
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: know what I mean?
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: He just knew how.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: He knew a tune when he heard it, even still now.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: We still go back and do, because the Metro's back
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: open again. Right. And we still go back and do,
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: we did a daytime party not that long ago, actually,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: because that's the big thing right now.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: The daytime parties, I was just saying earlier on, I
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: was at one, I think it was in April or
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: May this year. It was a gym that I go to,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: and the guy had organised it, and it was Cassie
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: that played.
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: Jumper.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Bad. Unbelievable. You came and walked in, it was like,
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: Sunshine Indoors like 2 in the afternoon this place is
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: bouncing aye just everybody dancing yeah it was.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Great it was really good it's the big thing right
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: now Jackie it's like people is it more for our
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: age group yes yes I would say from.
• 29:18
  Speaker 6: About 30 to 70 disco songs just all 90s naughty
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: stuff and what have you I'm doing one on Saturday
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: and it'll probably all be like 90s stuff I'll play
• 29:31
  Speaker 6: you know what I mean with a few naughty things
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: thrown in.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: And aye they're great you can get six seven hundred
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: people at.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Two o'clock in the afternoon what's the actress.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: The line of duty yeah Vicky McClure Vicky McClure she
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: started it her and her husband and I mean to
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: think They started that and it's become this massive thing.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know if it's worldwide, but certainly UK-wide.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: It's huge. Just on the back of them coming up
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: with that idea.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: You think about it, though, obviously that age group have
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: come through. You're talking about the 90s coming through in
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: the club and it's far too late to go out.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: So it's appealing to these.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Good kids, you're a good grandkid.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: No, because we're normally sleeping at 10 o'clock. Kids are
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: just going out when we're going in.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: But it's more appealing that. I just couldn't believe when
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: I walked through this, I hadn't heard of it really.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: Walked through and the place was rammed. Everybody was up
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: for a good time.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: I remember when I first started, I was up in
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Aberdeen and I was doing a gig. And I'd just
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: arrived at a train station. I get out and I
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: walk past the club and there must have been like
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: 400 people queuing. I thought, is that for me? And
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: somebody said, no, that's for a daytime event. I was like,
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: all right, okay. Then I thought, a daytime event? And
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: now it's just like they're everywhere. And they're massive. And
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: I think it's here to stay. It's great when something
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: like that comes along because it's not a fad. It's
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: not like it's like, oh, it's not as busy as
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: it used to be. It's kind of like people have
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: just embraced it and thought that this is the future.
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: This is it. Because you're never too old to enjoy
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: a night or a day out in a club. You
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? It's just, as Jackie says, it's
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: about the time thing. It's like getting up the road
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: at three in the morning. Did you have a few
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: drinks before you go in?
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: No, I had my first pint of Guinness when I arrived.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: But no, we were just... Are you dancing?
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: No.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: Can I maybe?
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: Stand at the bar.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: Shuffling.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: Holding a gun.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Just enjoying the ambience.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: Just watching.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Enjoying the ambience. But no, it was just a matter
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: of people getting into bad. I've been in bad before.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: It's a good arena for different things.
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: It's great, isn't it? It's a great venue, but I
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: like it.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: We did a couple of podcasts in there at one point. Oh,
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: did you? It's a good state of mind.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, sure, thanks.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: But it was just getting in and it was like
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: the fun in the afternoon. You couldn't get your head
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: around it.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: But, Aye. As you say, it's here to stay.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: It's here to stay, and it's a great thing, you
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? Because the club scene's nowhere near
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: as busy as it used to be, but this supplements it,
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? So it's great. It gives
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: everyone a chance to go out. You can get the
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: younger ones to go out at night, the older ones
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: go out during the day. Everybody's happy.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: You're DJing at everything.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: I'm DJing at them all. I find the late nights
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: difficult now. I was doing one a couple of weeks ago,
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: a freshers' night at the Foo Bar. I think it
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: was on from like two till three in the morning.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: I was driving home at four and I was thinking,
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: I used to do this all the time. I don't
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: know if I can do this for much longer. You
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? It's hard at night. It's tough,
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: isn't it? As you get older, you get a little.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Have you seen a lot of change over the years
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: in the nightlife type of stuff?
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: Aye. It's... I mean, it's still fun now and it's
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: still great, but see what we're talking about in the 90s.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: It was just... It was electric. You'd go in and
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: you'd just feel the atmosphere. Now, I think, people are
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: scared to let themselves go because of mobile phones and
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: what have you, because everyone's filming it. So if you're
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: like jumping about to a tune, giving it a laudy,
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: somebody's making a video of you and suddenly it's on,
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: and it's like you're embarrassed by it so people are
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: afraid to let go whereas back in the 90s everyone
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: was like if a chin came on they would just
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: be like sometimes you see.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Footage if somebody's in all the kind of ravers back
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: in the day that's exactly like nobody's giving a shit.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: No it was just one big movement and it was
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: like everyone was into.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: It did you do stuff at the tunnel and that
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: oh yeah I.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: Used to do tunnel all the time used to do
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: Archeos all the time every big club did them all
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: did them all and it was great Arceus was a
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: weird club because when it opened it was really like
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: cool and trendy and then it went totally the other
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: way towards the end it was a battleground it was
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: all over is that the.
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: One upstairs the bit up the top yeah.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: The big round one yeah and you could see all
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: the way.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: Up it was a gorgeous club did you see the
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: footage on social media of it recently it's still it's.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: Just been left it's just been left it's been shut
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: for what 20 years.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Must be yeah must be They were filming through it
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: and it was like you could recognise.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: Oh, there you were. There was a bed in it.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: I remember there being a double bed in it. Remember that?
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: That was a big thing. I had a double bed
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: for some reason. Because it was roped off so you
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: couldn't go and sit on it. It just seemed very strange.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: By all accounts, now they're doing tunnel kind of.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: Reunions? Yeah.
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: I think my brother-in-law was at one.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: My wife was at one just a couple of weeks ago.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: She said it was fantastic. Loved it. She's playing all
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: the old tunes for the old DJs. Yeah, it's great
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: that you've got that. Why shouldn't you have that? It
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: was part of our culture. So a band can back
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: out on tour. If the Rolling Stones can still get
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: out on tour, then the DJs for the Tunnel can
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: still go out and do a wee night.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: Did you get caught up in the Oasis stuff last year?
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: Are you an Oasis fan?
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: I am an Oasis fan. I interviewed Noel Gallagher a
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: few times and that was... not the easiest I think
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: Liam's a lot easier to interview.
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: Than Noel so we'll talk about difficult guests so difficult
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: guests I'm afraid Noel would come in although I have
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: seen interviews of him when he's been great so I
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: think it just depends on how what day you get
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: him I got him before he went on stage at
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: a gig so maybe.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: That's the worst thing he was doing his solo stuff.
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: This was when he was doing a Clyde One Live
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: gig for us and yeah it was a bit of
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: a challenge but I'm a huge Oasis fan I love
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: Oasis and But I can't remember where I was. I
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: wasn't here. I think I was playing in Ibiza the
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: weekend they were at Murrayfield. But I'll definitely go to
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: Celtic Park, Guy.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: Might be playing.
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: I don't know if my thing will go down at Oasis, Guy.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: I don't think that would work. I don't know.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: Glasgow might work in Glasgow. But if he's picking it,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: Nolan Lee.
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: I think Nolan Lee would be fine. But I would
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: imagine it would be... indie bands that are doing it
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: I think Richard Ashcroft did it last time and I
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: wouldn't be surprised if he was there again I.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: Think there is going to be an announcement they kind
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: of said for Glasgow Celtic partner Ashcroft will obviously do
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: it as well but there will be.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: There's one name that I've heard that I thought Oh aye,
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: that would be good.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: Can you disclose it now?
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: No.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: Can you disclose it off camera?
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: This is, I don't know if it's true though, but
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: it's just a rumour I heard. It wasn't from anyone
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: in the industry. It was just like one of my
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: pals told me that it was going to be somebody.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Interesting.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: Somebody or some people? I don't know. I mean, I
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know enough about it. But it
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: was just a rumour that was going around Glasgow. I thought, oh,
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: he would support Oasis, really? Right. I don't know if
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: that's true but we'll wait and see and then you
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: can play it back I don't want to fall out
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: with the promoters and say you said so and so
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: was playing it it's not that that's going to make
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: any difference now isn't it because it's sold out ten
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: times over it's amazing to see though isn't it it's
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: great that they are back and you know they're one
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: of the greatest bands of all time so for them
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: to be back and who knows if they'll do a
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: new album there's a bit of me thinking do you
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: want them to do a new album because you don't
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: know if there'll be any good members Stone Rose has
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: come back and did a new album that's pretty rubbish
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: but the stuff's so great it's just like they look
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: better now than they ever were I saw them at
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: Loch Lomond did you go to Loch Lomond? I was
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: there both nights how did recent gigs compare to Loch Lomond?
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: I was quite drunk at Loch Lomond.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: I thought they were more polished.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: I thought they were more polished this time.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I've heard. I've heard it's even slicker now.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: I think Liam was off the booze, so it was professional.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: They just sounded a lot more polished. It was like
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: the same stuff, but they've got that many songs that
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: they could probably put on another 10, 15 in this
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: tour that they haven't even used in the last one,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: which is exciting. So, I get what you're saying about
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: the new music, they probably don't even need to.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: You don't even need new music. Sometimes you go and
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: see a band and you say, here's our new singer,
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: I'm going to the bar. They don't really need it.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: Get the old classics on. There's a bit of me thinking,
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: it'd be interesting to see what they came up with now,
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: but would it be a letdown because the original stuff
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: was so good? You know what I.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Mean?
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: So you're going to Celtic Park? Oh yeah, if I
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: can blag a ticket, I would definitely be there. So, yeah,
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: I'll definitely be there because I think it'll be amazing.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: I think I'll have a good venue.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: I went to see U2 there in 92.
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: I saw U2 there. I saw Prince there as well.
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: Prince was the most recent one, wasn't it? I think.
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: White did it as well.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: U2 was 92. I signed for Celtic and blagged my
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: way in the front door.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: Of course, you could just turn up for training.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: I wasn't even in the first team, so looking back now,
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: I must have just been six months at the club.
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: And I've maybe just stuck a Celtic thing on and
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: walked through.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: So I'm just here to get something out.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Of my locker. I don't think that'll work for the
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: next year.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you're doing Celtic TV and all that,
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: so you can just say I'm here to film it.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think... Well, I was going to joke about
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: just hiding in the office the night before, but I
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: don't think the people who have worked there have had
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: the opportunity to get tickets. I think it's just like
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: everybody else.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: Tickets will be so scarce, won't they? They'll be so
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: scarce because everyone will want them.
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: Demand's been massive. We were in Ireland at the weekend
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: and I had a code But still couldn't get through.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking there might even be more demand this time
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: because there's a lot of people, last time when they
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: announced it, saying, oh, I don't know how it'll be.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: They might fall out.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: Because of how they finished the last time, because they finished,
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: they were like, each other's thoughts.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: People said, by the time we come to Glasgow, the
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: tour's going to have ended because they'll have fallen out
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: or whatever. But because it went so well, now they're
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: going to be like, oh, this is... a must-have ticket,
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Because it's going to be incredible.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: I've thought that as well. Do you think they've deliberately
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: played the blinder of all blinders, the fallout to the reunion?
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised. I think, I'm sure there was
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: a fallout.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: But not on the scale?
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know because I think... For them to fall
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: out and split up during a tour is a bit
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: of a slap in the face to people that have
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: bought tickets. Fall out when the tour's ended, and I
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: think they're too professional to do that. So I think
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: there was a fall out, but I think they probably
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: made up a lot a long time before they actually
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: made up, if you know what I mean. Maybe that's
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: just the cynical side of me, but it seems to
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: me like they, as you say, played a blinder.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: It's just worth Even the first two songs, Hello and.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: Aqueous, it just set it up perfectly.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: But if it is that, then fair play to them.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: We're no complaining. It is great to have them back.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: Mate, you've been a great guest. Before we leave you,
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: or let you go rather, we've got recommendations from our
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: previous guests.
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: So it's a film, a song and an album. So
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: the film is Usual Suspects.
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: Okay. Classic.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: Great movie.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: Great movie.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: The song's Under Pressure because of your field of work.
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: Oh, I thought it was Under Pressure.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: I see what you did there. House mix, Mopi, Dutch DJ,
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: have you heard of? Mopi? Yeah.
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: I should really know this, shouldn't I?
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: It was Mark Corcoran that suggested that.
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: Mopi.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Where was he when he was listening to that? Anyway,
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: that's the song and the album is from Matchbox 20,
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: Yourself or Someone Like You.
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: It's Rob Thomas. He's the guy that sang Smooth with Santana.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: His band are Matchbox 20.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: A few of the recommendations, we end up putting them
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: on in the car on the way home.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: What did you think of that?
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: I haven't heard it yet.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: He's got a great voice. Oh, Mau P! Yeah, I
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: know Mau P. Sorry. Mau P, his real name's Morris West.
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: And he used to play my type of music. It's
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: like banging, kind of euphoric thing. And now he's gone
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: quite techie and quite cool. and Drugs from Amsterdam's his
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: big tune but yeah he's he's a big kind of
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: techno DJ at the moment and he's doing really really
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: well so what was the track called?
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: It was just a general house mix from him there
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: was no it was just Mopi he's obviously been listening
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: to him while he's been away so we need a
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: film off you a song and an album.
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: My favourite film my favourite film is Random right probably
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: because of the the industry I work in But you
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: know the DJ Howard Stern in America, he did a
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: film called Private Parts, which I just loved, loved it.
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: It's my favorite movie ever because I can relate to everything.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: It'd be like you guys watching a football movie, right?
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: You can relate to it because if it was a
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: footballer that was doing it, you'd be like, okay, I
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: totally get that. And there's so many... like quirky things
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: that happened in radio that I thought oh my god
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: that happened to me and that happened to me and
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: stuff like that and how he got into it and
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: how he became this.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: That was quite old I know it was up in
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: the 90s yes.
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: It was late 90s it was actually came out the
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: year I started doing the breakfast show so it must
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: have been just 97 because I'd just started doing the
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: breakfast show I've maybe seen it does he play himself
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: in it does he yes he does play himself and
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: I just loved it and I tried to control him
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: WMBC yeah that's right and they were trying to control
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: him and saying this is how you're going to and
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: I was going through something quite similar I didn't go
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: quite as radical as him but something quite similar at
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: the time when I just started doing the breakfast show you.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: Know the guy had thought having sex on his show.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah i get i wouldn't be doing that clean one.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: At breakfast you know i.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: Think there was a bit where a woman um sat
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: on a speaker and he had sex with her over
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: the radio so he was like but this is all
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: true i'd read the book i'd read the book i've
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: read his autobiography and i thought I wonder what the
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: film will be like. And it was great. It was
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: just a great movie. So that's one. Rather than recommending
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: something that everyone's heard of.
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, cool. Song and an album.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: Do you know what my favourite album is ever? And
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: I always go back to it. And again, it's a
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: random one because it's a movie soundtrack. But see Kevin
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: and Perry go large. The soundtrack of that. That soundtrack
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: of that is just incredible it's just all big euphoric
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: trans classics and it's just like it's the most amazing
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: album of just tune after tune after tune that's like my.
• 44:15
  Speaker 7: Favourite album ever and song to finish a song to
• 44:18
  Speaker 7: finish difficult one it's a difficult one for me like
• 44:23
  Speaker 7: one of the greatest tunes ever written and I'm probably
• 44:27
  Speaker 7: the girl that sings it so I've told her this
• 44:29
  Speaker 7: before but Entrance 73 is like it's just a song yeah.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: The most perfect song, particularly TTF's remix of it, which
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: was incredible. And it was just like, it stood the
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: test of time. If you listen to a lot of
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: those songs from that era, you say, well, that sounds
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: dead dated now, but that just sounds fresh as ever,
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: even now, you know what I mean? And Kelly, the
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: girl that sang it, is a good pal of mine,
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: and her voice on it is just incredible.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: It's a good song. That'll be the song over the
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: post on social media.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: Ah, there you go.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: It's a classic.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: See what you did there?
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: Anyway, thanks for coming in.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: Thank you very much. Great to see you.
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: Wish you all the best in the future, mate. I'll
• 45:04
