Joe Gideon is/are playing in the Cluny on the 27th. Which is a problem, since we’ll be in Glasgow to see Augustines. It seems that I have an historic Joe Gideon timing issue. Conversation about such things with Karl last night led to the discovery that he and I had once unknowingly stood within feet of each other, watching Joe Gideon and the Shark. At Glastonbury in 2009.

Of course, Glastonbury is a huge festival, with large, busy stages. However, this was under cover, at a small stage. And Karl and I were both standing at the barrier, where it wasn’t remotely busy. 

My excuse for not noticing my friend’s presence is that I’d rushed from the Pyramid stage, missing the early part of the set. Although, I do recognise that I’m not the most observant of people.
