"The last two days rehearsing have been great. I wish we were doing more songs - there's a whole
plethora of hits in there which I wished we'd just dug out and done about twenty songs instead of five."
"I worked with Simple Minds previously in 1998 recording an album called
Neapolis, which was done at
Lochearnhead when they had the studio there in Perthshire, Scotland. I had a great time up there recording that.
It was a fantastic experience."
"I've always been a Simple Minds fan - ever since watching the first live gig I
saw - I saw them on TV, The Tube, at The Ahoy stadium, Rotterdam, and I thought that's the kind of band I'd love
to be in. Just that big sound, big drumbeats - all that stuff taken from
Sparkle In The Rain, and
Mel Gaynor's
fills - fantastic, really good." - Jim McDermott speaking on
