Hello I'm Pat and I like going to gigs.

The Sorrows Of Painting with GOTHROSS: A Lamp And A Light www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnGD...

Water Damage are album of the day on @bandcamp.com y'all. More importantly, go see them play one of the last gigs at the White Hotel, Salford in a couple of weeks. To paraphrase @thorharris.bsky.social "Get there, or you're fucked" daily.bandcamp.com/album-of-the...

A little workout with Personal Trainer tonight, along with The Earwurms who sounded exactly like every John Peel session band from 1985 and were excellent for it.

Thought I'd hit big time when I scored a guest list on Kiran's support for Jonathan Wilson in Manchester. Yippee! 2 greats in one night. Missed the support set - went up to the merch... Who the f r u mate? Turns out there's a Kieran Leonard... If you not seen Or Sobre Blau, remediate immediately.

This was possibly the gig of the year. The phenomena which is @perennialtheband.bsky.social, in the fantastic @themodernist.bsky.social shop, with the lovely @robotforster.bsky.social. Lucky Manchester.

Not Winifred!!! No!!

Grand time last night with Paranoid Void, from Japan, at the Night & Day Café, Maaanchester. Support from some nice Cork lads, God Alone, whose enthusiasm was unabaited, n'all.

What an album, eh?

@emf-theband.com Thoughts with you all today. xxx

Clearly this is baiting people with brain cells...?

Someone get Dyson reimagining loo paper, pronto. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Bye Tim

This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.

Double bill heaven!!

There now follows a party election broadcast by the Count Binface Party, And if I do say so myself, it's a banger. #VoteBinface #Clacton

Lovely evening last night with dbh + Or Sobre Blau (Kiran Leonard + Andreu Serra) in the sweat pit basement of Impiety Hour. dbh was obvs excellent, OSB highlights included a chat on the phone, a Princess Di + Charlie cup of wonder and around 45 minutes of bliss.

How - HOW - is this even justified? I know I am quibbling about a few quid but when did face value tickets jump up £3 before booking fees? @seetickets.bsky.social

Best ale in Manchester.

Watched Journey to the Far Side of the Sun last night - first time since 1976. Gerry-Sylvia Anderson film, not a single likeable character, yes everything blows up, yes majority of the cast are raging alcoholics, but the whole premise and the cool switch 1/2 way through are fab. Banger 👍

Super special show last night at Low Four, Westside Cowboy debuted their album in full for 70ish people and loads of cameras. Plus it was HOT. Album out in August and it will be a belter.

Hitchhiking late 80s, had a lift from Mr Hinsliff on the M6 north, for his weekly acting in Coronation Street. Not a clue who he was - everyone else in the service station did though. He was so lovely, dropped me at my door. Afterwards realised I knew him from this...

@sfxmaven.bsky.social see I love this category of Connections! Hopeless, but v enjoyable.

@thorharris.bsky.social Your 2 favourites!

Lovely evening with the MB3 & The Great Unwashed, down at Yes. Some of these unreleased songs are 💯 groove machines and the Lush songs re-energised with a sprinkle of umph. @4ad.com @mikiberenyi.bsky.social

Grade 1 for a very good reason -- Liverpool Cathedral: largest belltower, longest cathedral in the world.

First time spotting a Lesser Redpoll in the garden. They look kinda like a half-made goldfinch.

Happy Birthday @mikiberenyi.bsky.social - please party (ir)responsibly. xxx
