Windowlicker, by Raz & Afla track by Raz & Afla

It’s a cover version - razandafla.bandcamp.com/track/window...

Ace night with @optimo-espacio.bsky.social in the park! Great to meet up with old friends and loads of the 1 of 100 community 🤝😄

Good one! Say hi to Drew from me. I'll drop you a line.

that worked! it's quite a rare name here - weird you have one there!

Do it!!!

Hey Joel! Small world (the video is not viewable here). How are you?? It’s been too long!

😆

I think they nailed the heavy hitters!

It's almost exactly 15 years since the last weekly Optimo. Coincidentally I just found this which we handed out on the last night - 250 Optimo tunes as chosen by those who attended. Had we picked them I think it would have been a much cooler selection.

Saturday at The Berkeley Suite 11 - 4. Dreaming is free.....

Break The Ice at Parties, by The Tesco Bombers from the album [Cease & Desist] DIY! (Cult Classics From The Post Punk Era 1978-1982)

We totally need s group to call themselves The Tesla Bombers and come out with something as good as this. Can be done I feel. @optimo-espacio.bsky.social #2025 #fuckthenazis optimomusic.bandcamp.com/track/break-...

Friday night, JD Twitch @ Todmorden Golden Lion. Strictly for creatures of the night.

Conic Hill

Does anyone have any inside info as to what time tomorrow the Wyndford flats in Glasgow are getting demolished?

Back on.NTS Live in 5 minutes for two hours.

I regret not going to see Butthole Surfers on the Locust Abortion Technique tour (even though they didn’t come to Scotland).

Thought so. Ah well 😆

Sisters Of Mercy's - First And Last And Always is 40 today. I last saw them live 40 years ago yesterday - sisterswiki.org/Sun,_10-Mar-...

I've not seen them since but am going to see them this summer as they are playing practically next to my house. Will I regret it?

Tomorrow night’s all night Optimo party at Fold is sold out but there will be 20 tix on the door to incentivise some early arrivals. See you there!

Tonight - our final time playing Zukunft in Zurich. After 20 years of playing the club is sadly closing, (plus it’s probably the end of the world anyway….)

We are on 01.00 - 07.00

Sunday, at Berlin Panorama Bar 20.00 - 24.00

So long, Gene Hackman, perhaps my favourite American actor.

So many great lines!
