Yes.
Roll With It and Wonderwall let it down.
Slightly is right.
Also, The Masterplan reminds you that their b-sides for the early singles are up there with the album tracks, if not in some cases better (Acquiesce, Listen Up)
Earlier shoppers will want to be in and out as like you they’re after something specific. Later shoppers will likely browse. By my reckoning first 60 will be in and out within 30min (60 x 5 mins/10 spaces). You’ve got a 40min window (between 8:30 and 9:10). You want to be in that early queue. 6:30.
How long does it take you to get there?
I’ve started blogging again. Link in bio. Early days but let’s see how it goes.

That one on the left 👍🏻
This! I like the idea of a classy metal upgrade.
Bought one. Lost it.
Bought another. I wear that.
Bought a third, strap broke.
Found the first.
Nothing unusual!
I also have a Garmin Forerunner, a knackered Apple Watch and and two G-Shocks. I have a surprising number of watches for someone without any interest in them other than function…
Number 3 was such a left field move for Oasis, so exciting. And then the rest of the album was dross.
Great minds sir, great minds.
Posers. 😂
That album is just all killer no filler. Both them and Television definite influences on The Strokes.

When you’re coming towards the end of term, a hit of this is always welcome first thing in the morning!
Trump is imposing a 10% tariff on the Heard and McDonald Islands.
The Heard and McDonald Islands are uninhabited.
It is very simply one of my favourite films ever.
