Walk through Paisley Town Centre any weekend night and you can't help being drawn in by sounds of acoustic music coming from its many bars or clubs. Follow us down the musical cobblestones way back to where it all began ..... ‘1957, the Beatles and Bob Dylan are in their heyday and can be heard all over radios in the town, particularly at Garry Drive, Foxbar where 10 year old Gerry Rafferty soaks up his musical influences as he gets ready for another school day’. Gerry went to St Mary's Primary and later St Mirin's Academy and openly admitted his early years in Paisley influenced his songwriting and particularly his early lyrics. Gerry said: "Where you come from and where you spent your formative years has an effect and influence on you". Long before KT Tunstall and Sandi Thom made themselves household names via You Tube, another musical buddie put Paisley on the Acoustic Map - Carol Laula's rise from a young unknown to a household name in Scotland was phenomenal. She first captured the attention of the media, when in 1990 her independent single, “Standing Proud”, was chosen to represent Glasgow in its year of culture. Of course, lets not forget Paisley's other acoustic son, the illustrious Paolo Nutini, whose music reaches a worldwide stage and who has appeared in many a Hollywood movie soundtrack - born and bred on our fair cobbles , Paolo ...
Hello All, I’m raising money for The 2Simple Trust in support of Vanessa Riddle, who is 11 years old & from Loans, in Ayrshire, she urgently needs life saving treatment only available in USA. You can read her story here: In Feb 2009 our then 8 year old daughter Vanessa, was diagnosed with Stage 4 (High-Risk) Neuroblastoma, a very rare, aggressive and difficult to treat form of childhood cancer. Fewer than 100 children in the UK are diagnosed with neuroblastoma each year, most of which are below the age of 5 and generally have a better prognosis as the older the child is the worse the prognosis is. Since Feb 09, Vanessa has undergone many different treatments at Yorkhill Hospital in Glasgow, these include; 12 rounds of High Dose Chemotherapy, two 7 hour surgical operations, the removal of one of her kidneys, a stem cell transplant, Radiotherapy, Retinoic Acid treatment and Immunotherapy treatment……all of which was agonising to watch as parents never mind to have to endure as a child! Having undergone all this difficult and often very painful treatment the fact remained that due to a high relapse rate the long term prognosis for Vanessa's survival remained very poor with less than a 40% survival rate. All the same, Vanessa finished her treatment at Yorkhill Hospital in Aug 2010 and was given the all clear. In Dec 2011 after routine scans, Connie and I were given the devastating news that Vanessa had relapsed. She ...
