Friday night was one of my favourite @rsno.bsky.social concerts in a while. The first half was a virtuoso performance from Jess Gillam playing the Scottish premiere of Anna Clyne's Glasslands. And then, BOOM! Shostakovich 8 - one of the most incredible, powerful pieces, so apt for today #bravo

Oh my, Jonathan Mamora's Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto no 3 was mesmerising - it's such a complex piece but performed with such poise. He sounds like an interesting man www.rsno.org.uk/liveevent/ra...

Worrye not about 'being productive,' for thou art not a product. Thou art a star daunsinge yn a hopeful skye. A signal blinkinge across centuryes and worldes. Thou art a song performid just once but perfectlye. Thy tyme ys unquantifiable.

My wife asked me what I wanted for xmas I said "a limited edition Antigua finish Fender Bass VI". She looked at me intently. "Or new pants" I said. Anyway here's a new song where I pretend I am playing one. Cold Cold Sweat by Richard_Foggo on #SoundCloud on.soundcloud.com/CBWgmA7ZHPSr...

No idea if proud dad posts are a thing here but . . . Sam knocked it out the park on drums for Edinburgh School Rock Ensemble at Usher Hall. In 30 years never played to more than 150 people at a time. At 16 Sam's done a gig for 2000

X was basically a music, football and news feed for me (next to no social interactions). I have focused on music here and decided not to do anything about football at least until after the Hibs game tonight against Aberdeen 😵‍💫

I spend a lot of time in a tiny basement in Leith surrounded by musical equipment.
