I'm a bit gutted that I'm missing SAZ play in the Moorings tonight as I thought they were fantastic last time they were up. (I'm offshore again.)

I would console myself by playing some of their tracks on my MP3 player but I left it at home as I'm crap at packing my offshore bag. I'm sure Lisa will be up dancing about anyway.... especially around 10 ish, when the Cider and Jagers kick in.

Default Great Photo's
Great Photo's Flash of the old Moorings Bar, making me a little homesick looking at them for Canada has nothing like that. Timmins where I live now is not even 100 years old yet... But the Moorings has been serving since the 1600's and that is a long long time back in the days of Sail when the Ships were made of Wood and the Men of Iron.... Oh err.

I do not miss the Offshore Oil in the North Sea one bit and are much better off back sailing deep sea with the BP Tanker Fleet. If anyone can remember when the Moorings had a Pinball machine, I was the Guy who owned and serviced it. Also had machines sited in Back Wynd, Fithy McNasties and the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen in addtion to the Butchers Arms in Inverurie.. Ah those were the days.

I may find an excuse to get back to Aberdeen one day soon and shock the heck out of you all by calling in past for a pint of decent Beer. The Beer in Canada is all Lager and total CRAP with 2 major brewers messing everything up big time (Molison and Labatt)

Did get a week in Glasgow last November but sadly was on standby for a gig in Egypt and did not get to come to Aberdeen that trip.

We have a great live music scene here though, as you would expect for a country who have exported so many major pop and rock stars... Where I live produced Shania Twain and quite a few major hockey players and Niel Young played here way back when.

I used to play the Old Royal Hotel in Bath Street back in 1970 to 1973 as well as the Lunar 7 Bar - Shiprow and other dives back then along with former Northsound Radio DJ Bruce Kennedy and Fegus Watt of Purple Helix Discos (Sadly both now have passed away) under the TW Discotheque banner and still DJ to this very day playing an oldies based Video and Karaoke show in Gibby's Tavern here in Timmins at the Weekends.

I use OtsDJ software, one of the best in the World go here for the demo OtsDJ: DJ software and TV / radio automation - Video, CD+G, MP3 mixing and be amazed!!!

In 1970 the Royal Hotel was Aberdeens very first youth targeted Discotheque Venue and we packed the house 7 days a week. You had to move about a bit then or your feet stuck to the chewing gum covered carpet.

The 'best' show I was supposed to have done was one hot summers night when I had the bay widows wide open, rocking back and forward on the Beer crate stage, the rear legs of my chair went clean through the Beer boxes and propelled me out of the Bar into Bath Street.

I was still connected to the Discotheque by my headphone lead, and a half second later the decks landed on top of me to huge cheers of again, again... more... You get the Picture I am sure. The show went on, the only damage apart from my feelings were the headphones, who did not survive that night.
