The scene: a toliet in the Barrowlands, the Gallowgate, Glasgow.
The time: 23.10, 23rd October, 2005.
The players: Ian 'Mac' McCulloch and the girlfriend of a mate of a mate of my mate.
Went to see the Bunnymen in the Barras etc etc... mostly disappointing etc etc... too much new stuff etc etc... 'Bring on the Dancing Horses' was beautiful etc etc... 'Nothing Lasts Forever' was a shocking mess (why play all of 'Walk on the Wild Side' in the middle of a perfectly good song?) etc etc... went backstage after it etc etc... first time in the Barras dressing rooms etc etc.... holy of holies etc etc... mate and his girlfriend went to the toilet in the dressing room, next thing we know Mac is hurling my mate out of the dressing room, (allegedly) kicking the door of the toilet in on the girl's head, she's bleeding, police called, details taken, statements given by me and my mates, and then it turns up on the front page of the paper the next week etc etc... got a taxi home, quite expensive to the West End from the Barras etc etc...
Mac should learn from this man- totally devoid of ego, thrillingly as one with his work: we present- exclusive to Walking on Snow- exclusive pictures from Jandek's gig in the Arches, which are exclusive to this website: an exclusive.
So there you have it. Anything else? Maloney had another cracking game yesterday at Falkirk, and I was delighted for little Aiden McGeady. And while we're at it- let's hear it for the Big Bad John- 100 not out...

good exclusive.....it's the best, mates / famous band / newspaper headline story since Tony and Paddy's anti-Gyres graffiti art led to the Sun headline "Band On The Run".
