Versus Cancer Gig: One for Fratelli fans

(yes, it’s another shameless punt for the Scottish Versus Charity Gig but there’s value added content, so it’s all good)

Great to see people rallying round the concert. I had the joy yesterday of spending a couple of hours with Jon Fratelli from The Fratellis, who must be one of the nicest – and most patient – people in modern music (though I imagine that patience will be tested with tonight’s Celtic game against Manchester United). Anyway, for fans of the band who might not have spotted it, here’s Jon chatting on STV’s five-thirty show:

Jon Fratelli (at seven minutes 38 seconds – that’s Parky before him! And no, I can’t see why it hasn’t embedded)

Here’s some behind the scenes footage as well – Jon Fratelli
- but from now on, I’ll keep the more shameless promotions of this to the Tweets.

What’s going to be really exciting about this is the bands getting to mix things up a little and play with each other. Jon was hoping to get the chance to jam with someone like Paul Weller if he was there…
