Live at Dingwall's - Simple Minds in session 

I’ve seen this video several times . I still believe that the public there didn’t completely realize how privileged they were on this particular day .

after 53 years I have realised that Simple Minds are the only band that makes me cry when i listen to their music - well done guys!

In tears through the entire performance. This band got me through my troubled high school years. I will never forget you guys or your impact on a shy, misfit teen. Thank you!

how pure, small is the new big. Only two guitars and the comforting voice of jim. I am impressed

Humble men making great music decades later.

I love this amazing band! Always have and always will. Just a fantastic humble group of extremely talented guys! Jim Kerr sounds wonderful!

Alive and Kicking is a fucking classic!! The most underrated song of all time for me.

If this gig doesn't confirm our love and need for music, nothing will.

What a great performance, what a special moment when Jim talks emotionaly touched about the losses in their families and the dedicated song to all of them.

They still sound fantastic . !!! Who's loving simple minds in 2020... edit.. mid 2021 , now its 2022 still loving simple minds. (Always will) This music will never grow old. I pray with all this covid those that see this will get to listen in 2023 and beyond. ❤

Jim and Charlie are just geniuses

What a brilliant band

Simple minds are such nice guys, with fantastic music, i wish them a long and happy life!

Does this just show you how warm and down to earth they are ........ awesome guys

Fantastic footage of a classic band, how cool is Charlie on guitar!! And as for Jim he still got it after all those years! One of my all time favourite bands :-)

I love Scottish people. they are so warm, so funny, so charming! simple minds rule!

From playing mega stadiums to that wee room but Jim and co give it 100% every time they play. Best band ever. Didn't realise Jim's brother was so talented either. They can come and play in my living room any time they like. 🤩🤩

What an intimate setting for such a huge band. Wish I was there.

i am always watching this

Omg, I don't think I could have remained on the lap in front of such legends, they really played well, Jim is amazing !

IM just a boy from Texas that LOOOVES Simple minds, please come to America!!!! love the way he said Lou Reed influenced them, and the doors.....I knew this was a band of substance so looooong ago and still is,...

Wow I got goosebumps, wish I'd been there for this intimate gig. Absolute gem

40 years in the game and still as authentic as ever..!! Jim a top front man in a living room or on stage in front of 30,000... Wish I could've been there...

It is an absolute delight to watch this wonderful and poignant acoustic performance by the legends that are Simple Minds.

Just demonstrates how talented this band is... not that anyone needed reminding!

Possibly the best half hour I've ever spent on You Tube.

brilliant absolutely brilliant

30 years a fan and seen them all over the world , please guys would love to see a unplugged tour ! This was excellent

Most bands you go and see are just entertainment, but simple minds always feel like a real treat, that was a really nice little set, special. And they are such warm amazing guys to watch, not ashamed to say honest town choked me up a tad, knowing what it was actually about. Cant wait for there tour.

Now that was just brilliant, period! Stadium rock in acoustic form, absolute magic, thanks to all who made this possible.

Unplugged and live there is no hiding place ! Brilliant Scottish talent - I was at their NG Dream tour gig in Dundee in 84. It was unforgettable.

Honest Town up there with Mother Glasgow and with the story behind it brings an equal tear to your eye, superb Jim, Charlie and Mark.

Alive and kicking brought me to tears I have danced around my bedroom to this so touched by this and I love the stories Jim told about their parents I love them so very much God bless xxxxxxxxxx

Amazing 👏

Legends every one of you! They didn't know what they were seeing.

Sooo good....The Ameri-ameri-american is the winner for me!! Takes me back to when I was 17 listening to cassettes in my bedroom..thanks guys!

Amazing. Not sure this audience realise (or appreciate) what that are witnessing.

What an extravagant sympathetic gig. And so good.

fantastic and very intimate. loved this.

Absolutely gold

I can never get bored of hearing jims voice ,just quality

God bless all our Moms and Dads wherever they may be! Thanks to these three knights from Glasgow!!!

wow wish I could have been at that gig! Fabulous band, creative, exciting and dramatic compared to those of their contemporaries at the time. They have brought a lot of enjoyment to many people that they will never meet or ever know about. Love em!

Simply Perfection..

Simple Minds absolute legends. Loved them from the beginning. Wished I had lived in Scotland during this time but was miles away in South Africa.

I love it ❤

i would of loved to have been there , very inspirational band to me - best stadium rock band in the world

Live ,real ,acoustic and in your face x time never affects pure amazing music xxx these guys are the opitamy of all that's wonderfull ❤❤

A beautiful and moving set. Enormously impressive. Thank you, boys.

I love you ! It ' s wonderful !!!

I'm always bowled over by johns effort to get the minds to his place .. massive respect 🙏❤️

I’m liking his mature voice and Charlie ‘s guitar playing is magical

Very cool! Without YT I would never see this stuff.

Great band, The Minds.

The best, no doubt! Awesome!

mmmh🤗 amazing persons unparalelled musicians❤

Just brilliant 😁

Just amazing. The soundtrack to much of my life 80's and on. Love them!

Great stuff, surprised an acoustic set goes across so well, and Jim's vocals are brilliant :-)

The hot hot Jim Kerr. I am totally taken by his vocals and charisma 😍

Jim K. still has it! Incredible show, didn't think I would like the acoustic. ....... Man was I wrong!!!! Cheers (-:

Grande Simple minds, anos 80 , minha adolescência e juventude, muito bom, saudades.

Splendid songs, superb band, thank you Simple Minds.

Better than many concerts of them..

Brilliant. Special, touching words from Jim about his, Charlies and all our parents. Love the new album Cheers boys, never stop playing for us.

This is the first video I have seen with Mark Kerr, brilliant! I love material like this. SM so rocks!

That was great.... 1st time i've ever seen them do a cover, and we worked together for years.🇬🇧

Simple Minds is amazing band, great session...

❤❤❤❤❤Jim Kerr, I will always love you!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

Just magic ❤🎉

Wish I could've been there. Awesome - SM should release an entire album of acoustic hits.

This was it. What the acoustic album should have been. extraordinary.

Bijna 45 jaar de Simple Minds. Wat een geweldige band. Vanaf het begin ben ik fan. Een van de beste bands ever. Nog steeds geen slijtage. Verleden jaar in Carre in Amsterdam waren zij ook geweldig. Geniaal.

Great down to earth people who bring a magic to any event from this small venue to the largest stadium real sound Scottish folk thanks for posting this

Just watching this tonight and enjoying the show, etc.

Being away from Glasgow like these boys can be hard at times. But once a " Weigie" always a "Weigie". You can feel the emotion in Honest town because its so encapsulates Glasgow and it people. Lang may your lum reek!

Wow... Love this!!!

Great 👍

simply a few words can describe them. they,re the best band everytime . great sound. thank you for this amazing sound

first time i saw simple minds was milton keynes bowl 86. blistering hot day and an amazing line up including the bangles, the cult and a few others.

just shows what great down to earth guys they really are,new album a masterpiece,see u in bridlington and sheffield.

Generally not a huge fan of 'major rock band does an acoustic set' - however it has to be said that SM doing something acoustic has been long overdue and this was absolutely top drawer stuff. Hearing Charlie playing acoustic again was delightful, Jims vocals sounded better than ever and kudos to him for getting through Honest Town, I had to reach for a hanky myself. Wonderfully intimate venue, some really lucky folks in the audience. To the guy who called for 'I Travel' for the last acoustic song, haha now theres a challenge and a half!

Love it!

Can you imagine what being in that room was like? OMG

ces gars dégagent une émotion de dingue !!! Mille Mercis

Honest town is beautiful great melody as usual!

A fine example of how great musicians can sound colourful and emprevisiational is that a word u no what I mean in a relaxed environment

Hometown . Nice

Thank you so much. This is great. I am listen SM since 30 years and almost every day! I like to see all videos from them and any special things. Such a concert like this one is a nice present. Thank youuuuu

Jim Kerr looks like a Giant Red but he's still one of the most inspired singer on earth thanks for all these fantastic emotions ! ;) However, Honest Town is a pleasant track but it reminds me Running up that hill from Kate Bush, you can't avoid other inspirations after so many great years of real creativity (Stars Will Lead the Way was absolutely a classic !!)

Brilliant!!!!!!!.

Amazing 40 years.

'' Here come the wake shake the speed decade wake '' so moving :')

Regards from Mexico. Love you guys.
