just arrived today - cheers

have there been issues with sending out the CDs of new album? ordered mine in feb via Bandcamp and not received it yet and Fuzzclub have not responded to me chasing them

3 consecutive nights of great gigs in London - Bob Mould, Helicon and The Pains of being pure at heart has really lifted my spirits

The Beta Band @ Camden Roundhouse - a stunning return, phenomenal musicianship to replicate those intricate songs live so well.

whatever happened to the C86 kids?- Nige Tassell
Motley Crue - The Dirt (terrible band but very entertaining book)
Morrissey & Marr The Severed Alliance by Johnny Rogan

Got a bald friend whose surname is Jordan and he’s known as “No ‘air Jordan”

cheers for another fantastic gig, you truly deserve to be playing much bigger venues (and less cramped stages)

Paris St Germain have got a shop in a prime location on Oxford Street, London

it’s a great book, always saw Simon Garfield’s excellent “The Wrestling” as a companion piece to this, possibly only because I read them around same time,

having recently read his autobiography he is very apologetic about his Depeche Mode review and says he now plays their songs when he DJs

reminded of this by last night’s Top of the Pops repeats from
1980

The video is virtually a template
for early 80s music videos, Bowie’s influence was huge

Doves - Kingdom Of Rust YouTube video by DovesVEVO

so pleased about the return of Doves and hope Jimi is on the mend. Always think of this song when I walk or cycle along the south eastern stretch of Thames

Subhumans - Work-Rest-Play-Die YouTube video by ridgy37

Growing up in the 70s/80s I genuinely thought the world would be a better place by now and political Punk songs would no longer be relevant. I was so wrong

“Are you prepared to die for your beliefs or just to dye your hair?”

Voice Of The Beehive - I Say Nothing (1988 Version) (Official Video) YouTube video by London Records

Terrific single from Voice of the Beehive.

Used to get irritated by customers who would ask at counter for a record rather than look in alphabetised racks, but females asking for VOTB’s puntastic LP “Honey Lingers” always amused the stoned and immature staff

my friend does that with CDs and Vinyl, looks good but he can never find anything

wasn’t it Mark E Smith’s only appearance on Top of the Pops? it’s easy to forget how few records The Fall sold when I live in such a Fall loving echo chamber in real life and on social media 😂
