This may have been the worst kept secret all weekend, but it happened. Myself and Flo from The Glass House Museum joined Last Dusk onstage at Bats In The Attic in Morecambe for an (entirely unrehearsed) rendition of our song 'Tides'. We'll take these few precious minutes to the grave with us.

Normalise going to an event and not feeling morally obliged to take pro photos to post on social media. Use the time you'd normally waste on trying to get photos enjoying the real moment instead. You don't have to prove you were there, just saying.

This isn't just a matter of misinterpreted lighting & arrangement. The fact that this advert was dropped in the US due to intense backlash but kept visible around the rest of the world implies Converse knew exactly what they were doing.

I'm sat here unironically watching '2012' this afternoon because it's better to watch a film about the destruction of Earth due to meteorological reasons than being reminded daily that it's happening for real 12 years later due to manifestly evil techbros & billionaires.

Nobody in the past couple of hours has worked harder than the BBC subtitles team to try and keep up with the delightful UK beat combo Chase & Status performing live at Reading festival tonight. Most of the time it looked like it was having a minor stroke.

I'm just a voter standing in front of a govt asking them to do something about climate change because a whole bunch of us are going to die from the effects in the coming years. And while I'm no expert, I'm pretty sure the solution doesn't start with banning 'vertical drinking' & disposable barbecues

Didn't bother trying to get a photo of the solar eclipse but at least I saw it. It'll be the only one of its kind in my lifetime. Nowadays I'm focused on the little things you should do before you die. So I watched an eclipse happen through an old blank CD-R & that's now that's off my list.

If you fancy a Roland JP-8000 but don't have the space or several hundred quid, there's a free emulator for yer DAW. Great VST for classic sound design or for just having a go at playing VNV Nation songs, the theme to Chariots of Fire or Blade Runner, etc. Download for free at theusualsuspects.io

I noticed unexpected sales activities in Bandcamp today. I found it a bit odd. Just realised it was Bandcamp Friday. 😂 To those who bought or are considering buying my music today, *thank you*. It means so much to me that people out there actually want to actually own the stuff that I create!

Since it's my son's 19th birthday today I'm going to repost the video for the track I produced in his name. Again like most teenagers, he won't have realised it even exists because he has better things to do than watch his old man do cool shit on the internet, right? 😂 youtu.be/_IyMc0mQT-0?...

I really need to mention that the guitarist from last night's opening band Tiny Forehead either took his prosthetic leg off or it fell off during their last song, so he just hopped on the spot while playing right to the end. I don't think anyone will ever match that kind of onstage energy.

So, after spending what must be maybe 2 hrs trying to find out what's stopping my MIDI keyboard working, I've realised that Mercury Retrograde ends on the 23rd July, so Imma leave it until Friday to get the screwdrivers on this absolute bastard. (I'm also reminded why I don't use MIDI keyboards.)

We're opening a top notch gig tonight at The Rigger in Stoke. There was a tiny blip this morning when the venue had to look for a replacement sound guy, but we're all good. My band has played this venue many times so we know when to panic or not. And this was not a panic moment.
