The exception to this rule is that if you’re at a Pop Will Eat Itself gig, you MUST wear the merch, and the older the better.
I have been going to gigs for over 30 years, but for some reason I will avoid wearing the t shirt of a band that are on the bill. I don't know why this is, but it's always been the case. I know this isn't the most exciting confession, but it is true.
So, was @cici6923.bsky.social or @marzid.bsky.social the anonymous stranger who accosted Grace? 🤔

Just started Alice Cooper's autobiography. Already I can tell its going to be excellent. This is NOT going to be the usual "wild men live crazy" rock & roll read.

🎶Buoys Keep Swinging 🎶
The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

Amazing to hear what is probably the earliest live recording of British electronic beat combo Autechre, in Rochdale for Darrell Fitton's birthday party 1990 youtu.be/M70jmp-RCeY?...
Hey @angelabarnes.bsky.social Just got back from The Archers gig in Brum. A wonderful evening and your hosting was a joy. I particularly enjoyed your 75-year history 😊👍 #DumDeDumDeDumDeDum
Thanks so much for the bookmarks @davidwaywell.bsky.social since I started with the album in 2007, the gig in February will mark a 20-year milestone 😊

Reminds me of the Christmas I first met my Other Half’s extended family and matched them drink-for-drink
A few years ago I went to a pig sanctuary and most of the pigs were stoned from eating green acorns. This one, Wilbur, couldn’t stand up and was too big to lift, so the staff had to leave him in this bush and wait for him to sober up.
Maybe it was the haze of exotic* cigarettes that made it feel that way. Not Gitanes
Our local Greggs has put tables and chairs outside for the summer. I took my girlfriend there for lunch today and we had a sausage roll and a coffee sitting in the sun. I felt so continental. It was like being in Paris, not Wolverhampton.

It was 2018 when I drove >40 miles to Stoke just for the evening to meet up with @glennairey.bsky.social to see GIMC-P. Tiny venue, he’ll remember the name. It was just after MES’s death, they did ‘How I Wrote Elastic Man’ I think, as a tribute.
The Riot Grrrl scene also liberated and gave voice to LGBTQI indie kids! Before it, there wasn't any kind of reference that I could see that spoke to us and for us specifically. Heaven to Betsy feature in link! www.theguardian.com/music/2026/a...
