I also received this lovely from you which was in my mailbox when I got home from work on Friday. Thank you! Beautiful sleeve and great music! eiderdownrecords.bandcamp.com/album/grub

Looks amazing 😋

That all sounds amazing! The Necks last week were already sold out for all shows before I even booked my trip, I think, but we ended up in Belgium those days anyway. I found a gig the Chris Abrahams was doing though and went to that, which was incredible. I’d love to see music at Oto some time!

Jealous :)

As usual, I’ve added Alt text for the titles of everything ❤️

For most of the week we were in Belgium, but next time!

Saw many adorable dogs and wondered if we’d run into Nico while we were out and about, lol

The CD? It’s Confront Recordings (London, UK). I picked it up at the gig in London but it’s also for sale on their bandcamp page

I’m certainly looking forward to reading it!

And, yes, we had a wonderful time. Thank you!

Yes, that photo is from Cafe Oto. I love hanging out in the space there and the records they have for sale are a small, but perfect, selection.

Not from Record Store Day, but from exploring many wonderful shops on my recent visit to London, Bruges, and Brussels. Heavy bag, indeed, lol

For example, I’ve just gotten into my own car to run a dreaded errand and they are playing Moondog. Suddenly, my mood is amazing 😌

Lol

Nice!! 😁☀️☀️☀️

Love this debate. I’m also very picky about my cream. If it’s over whipped then it’s ruined for this kind of dish, imo, lol

Lol

My Lyft driver was this kind of unfriendly guy who barely could be bothered to grunt a hello or even help me with my heavy bags at airport pickup, but he was tuned to KMHD on our silent ride home so all was righted, lol

It was all delicious!

This seems like the best way to me!!

Yay! I do love rain too, but I prefer it to be dry when traveling in cities. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for y’all

Thank you so much! It’s been lovely here and also in Belgium (Bruges and Brussels for a few days). I’m looking forward to sampling an IPA on cask as I imagine it to be totally different to my experience with how west coast IPAs are brewed and served back home

All of that sounds absolutely perfect. That’s going to be so much fun for you all! The weather in the UK has been great too and I hope it holds for you

Thank you! have heard only good things about Ghent. Next time!

Possibly the best find of the trip. Just beautiful. Perfect Sunday morning 💙

Hey! That’s amazing. Are you just going for a visit?

It’s unseasonably summery weather here too, and it’s glorious 😎

Sorry, Bruges. I forgot to add any Alt

Continuing to live my best life …
