Sleepless in Salopia
Really enjoyable read that Pete, thank you. I got a reissued CD of the Jane and Barton album free with a Cherry Red release, it's of its time but I wish more people made risky and weird records these days.
Wasn't planning on getting my hair cut tomorrow but suddenly feel duty bound.
"They all have it in for you, you say?'
Absolute elite level shithousery from Wolves. And I love it.
Andrew's completely broke which raises the possibility that a Norfolk duty solicitor is currently having the strangest day of his / her life.
Work morning improved immeasurably by Eyes Without a Face by Billy Idol coming on the radio. But who sanctioned the rap bit in the middle eight? Bananas.
Oh Yoko is a banger.
The small print giveth and large print taketh away.
I *think* they doing an extra date on the 19th hence the change from playing a week later as originally planned
See you there, assuming they don't change the date. Again.
Indeed. Also changing the date thirty seconds after purchasing the ticket was a delightful touch.
Very very excited about this one.
They left Indian Summer from these sessions off the LP as they felt that they already had a 'slow one' which is a great shame I think. I'd have definitely kept it in over Whiskey Bar.
A Google Street View screenshot of Temperance Street in Manchester, England. The scene shows a curved road flanked by high brick walls and a large railway arch in the background. On the right-hand side of the picture two individuals are captured against a brick wall, a woman and a man. The woman is giving the man a handjob. They are slightly blurred out.
Please support my petition to Manchester city council to get a blue plaque put up at that spot on Temperance Street where a man getting a handjob was captured by a Google street view car.
RIP Eddie McCreadie. Toast of the Fulham Road and no stranger to the Kings Road . I remember reading a 70s Chelsea year book that published one of Eddie's poems under the headline ' The Bard of Stamford Bridge'. It was very reminiscent of the lyrics of Moonlight Drive by the Doors if memory serves.
Do you remember that they used to tell us where the referee was from? Even today, I remember that George Courtney was from Spennymoor.
Lovely stuff, bonus points for the dad looking like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day.

This post by the world’s richest and most divorced man on the site he bought to promote his far right extremism is ripped straight from the Klan messaging of the 1870s or the 1915 film Birth of a Nation that inspired the Klan’s rebirth as a PR stunt/Ponzi scheme/terrorist organization in the 1920s.
Four men in parkas forcing a furious polar bear into a cage.
“And what is the charge? Eating a seal? A succulent Chinese seal? GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY PENIS!”
I've written something about youth and addressing people's snootyness about the Stone Roses. Link in comments.
Well that's my story and I'm sticking to that.
The Ogdens have got the same mugs as The Beatles in Get Back
Perfect Tom Stoppard story from DTel obituary:
His response to a letter from Harold Pinter canvassing support for a proposal to have the Comedy Theatre in London rechristened the Pinter Theatre, “Have you thought, instead, of changing your name to Harold Comedy?”

I was on the other side next to the bar. They were soooo good. They would have been absolutely perfect for Indietradks. They also must have pedal boards longer than Margate pier.
Under the Irn Bru we kissed.
