It's Saturday night so must be time for 24 Hour Party People. If 24 Hour Party People, are having an early bath and changing their bedding.

"I toured with them as 50 Foot Wave a couple of years ago and they have their sound and they’re the only people who can make it which is so unusual. They get up on stage for a soundcheck and boom!" Kristin Hersh on Mission of Burma - Vs #ThePortal: Your Weekly Quietus Archive Dive buff.ly/a7IIqNL

+++ On this day, 48 years ago, the 13th of October 1978, Public Image Ltd released their debut single 'Public Image', via Virgin Records. +++ Initial copies came wrapped up in a mocked up newspaper. #publicimageltd #publicimage #johnlydon #OTD #postpunk #dub #pil #newwave #alt

I've accidentally missed out Bowie, Iggy, velvets, Robyn Hitchcock, the white album, plastic Ono band, Siouxie and the banshees, Bert jansch, the smiths, nick cave...

Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

'The trio in the picture look like they mean business; sonic paramilitaries, ready to inflict pain on our ears, and on themselves if necessary. There’s a strong sense too that they’re doing it because they have to' #EinstürzendeNeubauten’s Kollaps at 45 buff.ly/MmUYkJ4

This will be our 10 year anniversary (established 2016). The landscape has changed a lot over the years and for various reasons (e.g. difficulty finding good stuff within budget as prices shoot up; reduced interaction on social media, etc) we have decided this will be the last year for #VinylSanta.

👹 Monster was released on this day in 1994. “What’s the Frequency, Kenneth?,” “Bang and Blame,” “Strange Currencies,” “Crush With Eyeliner,” “Tongue” — and a run of music videos that makes this one especially fun to look back on. Share your favorite song in the comments…
