Happy Eurovision Saturday to all who celebrate!
Battle playing Feel The Same, live at the Camden Barfly on 16th February 2005. Where did you first hear this song live? 📸@ianmilleruk.com
Happy & delighted to share. Currently enjoying the Maria Friedman ep on a walk & feeling nostalgic for Dress Circle whilst nodding about Dead Outlaw.
Logging into 2005... seeking fans of our band... anyone there? This is Battle... Hello?

Isabelle, you know me Isabelle. Please don't tell on me...
I’ve been working on a few lovely creative projects recently in my spare time. The first starts to go live this evening, very much a scrappy slow burn social and marketing project. Will be interesting to see if we find the right audience!
Really enjoying the new podcast Talk Musicals To Me by @carolinesheen.bsky.social … just listened to a great interview with Adam Guettel who’s a superb guest. https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/talk-musicals-to-me/id1809880953?i=1000704450468
Have a great morning! Looking forward to stopping by later!
I see that and think, “which shows would i financially back if I won?”
You can also use Mac shortcuts and/or automation to create contact sheets from a group of files. Once a shortcut is installed then it’s accessible from right click (I’m sure people have already built the action to download and install)
Remember, Friday at 8am, the UK Eurovision act will be revealed. I need a distraction of joy amidst the world today.
I went up 10k in the queue and then down 9k. Which… makes sense? I’ve left it running whilst minimised just to see how long it takes
Absolutely wild! So you got tickets then? 🤦♂️😂
Yup it would’ve sold out to those getting through in the first five minutes. Unless the tickets are a grand each and people bail at that point!!
I’m number 330,242 in the queue for Elton John and Brandi Carlile tickets at the palladium. So… I stand a chance? 😂🤦♂️
A few black & white photos of the great Norwegian rock band SPAN playing their final show at the o2 Islington Academy, London last year
Need one of these!
This is brilliant! Hoping we can select to add to portfolio in the posting process in due course too. Will get testing the latest version now…
Over the weekend caught two amazing films. September 5 is truly gripping, the setup means it could also work as a phenomenal stage play. The Seed of a Sacred Fig is bold and brave, a must see. I did wonder if its runtime would be off putting, but it never outstays its welcome and is entirely vital.
Really enjoyed hearing Tom Kitt & Brian Yorkey’s if/then at the staged concert earlier this week. A joy to hear the full score and book for the first time. I wasn’t quite as keen on the staging in truth… but to hear the music live, with that cast, pure wow.
Testing @flashes.blue beta… so here’s a photo of my new local cinema. Posted with filter in the Flashes app.
Just as I was again grumbling about ticket prices… there’s now a big music fan survey that will lead directly into government committees. Topics range from how you choose shows, to food, merch & of course ticketing
Worth the time to fill in, I’d say for all live event fans https://musicfansvoice.uk
If I paid the going rate of minimum £60 for every show I wanted to see in a year, I’d be broke.
It just encourages the stay at home behaviour for many, making regular access to culture an elite activity.
Priced out of yet another musician’s upcoming shows, this time in a theatre. Handful of tickets at the back for £25 all gone along with most £55 ones by the time I reached the sale page. Prices increased through to £120.
The fact these shows sell out simply encourages the pricing structure.

Some of you may have read about the situation regarding our new landlord wishing to add a new redevelopment break clause, with only 6 months notice to our lease.
For now, we're simply asking you all to share & sign the petition below;
