Been going to gigs for longer than I care to remember but there is something special about great music in a small venue. Thank you @macartsvenue.bsky.social for a great gig with Toby Lee.

youtube.com/watch?v=R2oG... Been a while since Blonde on the Tracks but The Resurrection Game is one of my top albums of 2025

@leader-music.bsky.social Sorry for late arrival. Still remembering a great gig from Gillian Welch and David Rawlings (what a guitarist) in Glasgow last week. Evening Richard. Evening all.

@leader-music.bsky.social Hi Richard. What a night in Edinburgh with Chuck Prophet and the Cumbia Shoes. If you get the opportunity to see them, take it

@renkadima.bsky.social Hi Mark. Just back from holidays and still no sign of @emmaswiftsings.bsky.social album. If it is on sale at the gig tonight (preferably vinyl but cd if not) could I take you up on your offer and buy one for me? If you succeed be sure to let me know how much I owe you. Bob

@renkadima.bsky.social Hi Mark. Have you got @emmaswiftsings.bsky.social new album? I ordered it from Union Music and they say they are having trouble sourcing it

@leader-music.bsky.social Anthony Toner in Glasgow on Sunday and Ward Thomas the following week in Edinburgh. In October have Chuck Prophet in Edinburgh and Gillian Welch in Glasgow on consecutive nights!

@leader-music.bsky.social 22.45 and leaving the playlist on a high - Bruce and Devils and Dust

@leader-music.bsky.social Well said, Richard. Great show and great way to close the show. Will listen to some/all playlist but for now. Goodnight Richard. Goodnight everyone.

@leader-music.bsky.social Tickets obtained for the Karen Jonas Peebles gig - Eastgate Theatre is a 10 minute walk for me!

@leader-music.bsky.social Home now. Evening Richard. Evening all.

@leader-music.bsky.social Hi Richard. Am out late afternoon/early evening. Hopefully will be able to join in around 9pm

@leader-music.bsky.social Evening Richard. Evening all. Back from Brighton and looking forward to some great music.

@leader-music.bsky.social just a brief clip of a great gig by Brandi Carlile at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow last week

@leader-music.bsky.social Brandi Carlile in Glasgow on Thursday is my next gig, Richard.

Margo Cilker was just spectacular at the Voodoo Rooms in Edinburgh on Tuesday.

@kateellismusic.bsky.social @leader-music.bsky.social Great to hear Kate Ellis on your playlist, Richard. Have the fondest memories of a great house concert last year. Best wishes to you, Kate (and Andy)

@leader-music.bsky.social Apologies for late tune in. Evening Richard. Evening all. Margo Cilker at the Voodoo Rooms in Edinburgh tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing her

@leader-music.bsky.social Checking out a bit early tonight. Feeling the effects of staying up until 2am watching the Masters. Goodnight Richard. Goodnight all. Great show once again.

@leader-music.bsky.social Call me a light weight, Richard, but heading off to bed. Thanks for another great show. Goodnight everyone. Won’t be around next Monday as heading to Portugal for a few days golfing. See you all in two weeks

@leader-music.bsky.social Got to see Willie Nelson in Manchester 20 years ago when he was a mere lad of 71😀

So happy to have snagged two tickets for Gillian Welch and Dave Rawlings in Glasgow but what a stressful experience. Every time I tried to book two tickets which seemed to be available one or both were already gone. After about 6 attempts and 40 minutes eventually was successful 👍

@leader-music.bsky.social In the past month, Richard, have seen Dean Owens, Chuck Prophet and Carpenter/ Fowlis/Polworth

@leader-music.bsky.social Still having connection issues tonight so checking out a bit earlier than I’d like. Might play some Chuck Prophet to remind me of a great night last night. Goodnight Richard. Goodnight all. See you next week.

@leader-music.bsky.social What a night in Glasgow with Chuck Prophet and Cumbia Shoes

@deanowens1.bsky.social Am a bit of a gig millionaire at present. Dean Owens tomorrow, Chuck Prophet (Sunday), Mary Chapin Carpenter and The Delines (March) and Bonnie Raitt and Brandi Carlile (June).

@ralphmclean.bsky.social Hi Ralph. Just catching up on last night’s show. Great stuff. Some more possibles for consideration. Leonard Cohen (Live in London), Little Feat (Waiting for Columbus), John Mayall (The Turning Point) and Steely Dan (Northeast Corridor)

@leader-music.bsky.social Really great show, Richard. Goodnight all. See you next week.

@leader-music.bsky.social Hi Richard. While I’m tuned in just thought I’d share that my son, Euan, has put an album (Emergency Exit) on Spotify. He wrote all the tracks and plays all the instruments himself. Recorded over Christmas at Bennett Studios Peebles😀.

@kenjude.bsky.social Welcome Ken

@leader-music.bsky.social CMA presenters were Lainey Wilson, Luke Bryan ( the cringeworthiest of all) and some American footballer called Peyton Manning.

@leader-music.bsky.social Has Tune-In gone awol?

@leader-music.bsky.social @marionblackcat.bsky.social There was a reasonable leak evident. Went online and followed some suggestions (well actually Sheena went online etc). Seems to be ok now. Thanks for your concern. Happy Christmas and thanks for a great year of music.

@leader-music.bsky.social Slight problem with a leaky dishwasher so checking out early. Happy Christmas all.

@leader-music.bsky.social Greetings from Peebles

@ralphmclean.bsky.social Really enjoyed catching up with your Tom Waits at 75 show on BBC Sounds. Agree fully that Tom Wait’s version of Martha is the best but growing up in Dublin in the 70’s had a soft spot for Freddie White’s take on it.

@rhinosfan71.bsky.social Hi Mark. Welcome aboard!

@leader-music.bsky.social I make it a 111,427 thank yous for a great show Richard. Probably wrong as I was a bank manager before I retired and numbers were never my strong suit 😀

Great track from Bonny Light Horsemen. They played Glasgow on the same night as Eleanor McEvoy. If ever I would have liked to be in two places at the same time ……

@leader-music.bsky.social Super 8. Super great.

@leader-music.bsky.social Are you posting the tracks played on Bluesky, Richard?

Great night in Glasgow with Eleanor McEvoy.

Then...LIVERPOOL @thetungauditorium with @amychalmersmusic & her wonderful string quartet ❤️ Share & Tag your friends in the comments in case they might have missed it!xx #albumtour #livemusic #singersongwriter #americana #robertvincent #liverpool #tungauditorium #yokoono #livestrings
