Shandon Par Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 P&B's own Hedgecutter has been wearing a GoPro headcam on his recent journeys. The footage will be edited into a gentle travel show. "Ballingry's Brawest Bus Stops" will be narrated by Dougie Vipond and will air on Hogmanay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pittsburgh phil Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Dougie Viponds drumming was so bad that clydebank went bust. Indeed much of Dougie Vipond's drumming on earlier Deacon Blue songs was actually performed by Arthur Montford. Montford's early Scotsport scripts were written by legendary session drummer Hal Blaine, whose drumsticks were made from wood that came from the farm of Vipond's grandfather.Who hated percussion in all its forms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Facts you didn't make up for this pish.. Dougie Vipond lived (maybe still does?) in Culross. My mum was once in Culross on a school trip with her primary pupils. The school trip bumped into a film crew (filming The Little Vampire). Richard E Grant charmed them all and bought everyone ice creams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonD Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 The build-up to the chorus of the Toy Dolls' punk version of Nellie the Elephant (at 48 seconds into the video) came about after the lead singer heard Archie Macpherson commentating an Old Firm match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In one of the Culross scenes, you can very vaguely hear some of the local Valleyfield youths shouting "Hugh Grant, ya f***in' fannyyyyyyy!!!" in the background. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van was actually a semi-pro darts player but being deef in one ear, whilst in the spring of his darting career he misheard his mentor saying his shot was a fluke & thought he'd told him to take up the flute. That is how he ended up as 2nd flute too JG. G-Bo(re) -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njord Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 The Stones originally wrote 'Route 66' about England's path to the 1966 WC Final, but were forced to change the lyrics as it was decided it wouldn't have sold in the American market. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee_62 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Likewise, The Alarm's re-released version of sixty eight guns was originally written to boost the English squad morale ahead of the 1968 Euros. Hurst and Charlton were given writing credit but Alan Mullery was the genius behind the football related lyrics. England missing out on a place in the final, ended the chances of the tune being released at the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they're Welsh, I think their fitba song was 'the spirit of 76', which clearly refers to the Panenka penalty and the fact england weren't there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
