Looks like the gaffer's gone with an unchanged line-up for today's encounter with @heyhumdrum.bsky.social and @mtmiseryband.bsky.social Solid pairing at the back, and flair out wide. Game faces on!
Soooo good! Can't wait for Tuesday night!
For Me?
Measure For Measure.
Sonic Youth?
And these days you'd be lucky to get the 50 quid.
Oh you betcha, ja!
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be coming back around breakfast time.
Isn't it?
I've always thought that Longpigs' 'Dance Baby Dance' is a Franz Ferdinand song being played by the wrong band.
It's #BandcampFriday innit, so here's Ferg taking time out of his busy bass schedule to point you here: orlly.bandcamp.com/album/half-l... - or you can pick up a CD at our upcoming 7th March gig at the Lending Room!
We're eagerly setting our alarms for 3am on Saturday 14th Feb, as it's the ONLY hour in the next 2 weeks that isn't currently forecast for precipitation! #bitwetinnit #stopnowplease

Oh it's an absolute beauty isn't it. Just gorgeous from the first note to last.
That's a magnificent poster.
Pretty sure it was @adamscottglasspool.bsky.social of the @whatismusicpod.bsky.social podcast who mentioned that in their dissection of OK Computer a few years back.
Apparently the interweaved vocals in the climax were utterly unplanned as Thom was recording multiple takes but the band weren't entirely convinced with any of them individually, so they thought 'what happens if we play them both at the same time'.
And it just opens the song up into the heavens.

The fact that this has to be considered a deep cut is what does it for me. It's immaculate torch-glam, a brittle yet florid extravaganza of taboo. One of his very very best.
Oh absolutely - it wrapped things up with such a generosity of spirit. The moment when Spiegel Im Spiegel starts playing as Chidi and Eleanor have their final moment just broke me and still does now.
