He actually stayed with me when he did a couple of gigs in Ullapool.
A great and sensetive guy; Larger than life in every way so I think a "Hamish" story is due.

ALLEGEDELY, he was, after a gig in Germany in bed with one of his fans. After the initial frenzy, he said to the young girl, "Here take one of these pills". She said, "Will this make more randy" He said, "No they are bloody sleeping pills!"
Then there is the other story of Hamish, when after a gig in Edinburgh, he had had far too much to drink and woke up in the morning and found that in the toilet he had soiled his underpants and jeans. He left the apartment and went into a shop in Princess Street and quickly demanded a pair 40 denims. He got the bag and got the train to Falkirk, Once in the train, he went to the loo and removed the soiled jeans, threw them out the wee window and opened the bag --- only to find a size 40 denim waistcote.
Don't know if they are true but I'm sure that many like it are - a great man!
