@infestfestival.bsky.social last was my 25th Infest, so on /Tuesday Ten /602 this week, I reflect on some of the most surprising performances across the last 25 years or so, as well as some of the new discoveries along the way. amodelofcontrol.com/tuesday-ten/...

Five years ago this week, we headed down to Folkestone and Dungeness (for me, the first time), and the seed was planted for moving down here. /Tuesday Ten /599 is about places in Kent, and finding that there are surprisingly few songs about places in the county. amodelofcontrol.com/tuesday-ten/...

adam w @amodelofcontrol.bsky.social · 17/06/2025

/Tuesday Ten /592 is about songs that go "ooh!", and thirty-odd years after first hearing it in the stands, I finally learn the origins of a football chant. amodelofcontrol.com/tuesday-ten/...

Songs that go "Na Na Na" make up /Tuesday Ten /588 - and good luck getting most of these out of your head. amodelofcontrol.com/tuesday-ten/...

On a related note, suggestions for songs that go "La La La"?

I can blame hearing a particular Ashbury Heights song at the weekend for realising I'd never asked about this subject before. Anyway: your suggestions, please, for songs (*NOT* albums) about or mentioning rumour, hearsay, insinuation and/or gossip.

It's a day we're celebrating (it's our anniversary today), at least, so... Your suggestions, please, for songs that are about or reference parties or partying, or just generally having a great time.

adam w @amodelofcontrol.bsky.social · 11/03/2025

It's our 20th anniversary together, and nine years married, tomorrow. So /Tuesday Ten /579 is on an appropriate subject: anniversaries, and the metals and precious stones that represent them. amodelofcontrol.com/tuesday-ten/...

Picked up at the fantastic @pitchshifter.bsky.social show in London last night: the reworked/corrected/(mostly) originally intended version of Genius, called [nos]Genius. It adds in the correct lyrics (as always printed), and has a few other subtle differences too. (There's a few new remixes too).

Posts on my website (amodelofcontrol[dot]com) will be lacking until next week. I'm in the midst of a bunch of gigs and trying to get /Countdown /2024 finished (the wrap up of the best music of the year), not to mention a new job. So bear with me - /Countdown /2024 begins next Tuesday, 03-Dec.

For the first time, I'm going to try this here too. Please give me your suggestions for a dying art - secret tracks. Those you have to forward through minutes of silence for, or once upon a time had to rewind from the start of track one to get to...

KITE were absolutely magical - again - last night. I don't know what it is, but something about their live performance elevates their songs to another level. The only other band to have done similarly for me is mind.in.a box.

An Interesting move by @benefitstheband.bsky.social re: their upcoming tour: £12 ticket ceiling, 2200 curfew, and a commitment to posting stage times well in advance. The world has changed, and by listening to their fans they make it easier to attend. www.thelineofbestfit.com/news/benefit...
