Being back at work full time my listening time has plummeted by about 75% this year Also in a year I saw Steven Wilson live twice, (once, for the first time) none of this is a surprise…

Vapor Trail by #Rush the disturbingly beautiful “Silence all the songbirds stilled by the killing frost. Forests burn to ashes, everything is lost” lyric from Neil’s darkest personal time and the haunting chord Alex drops in the middle. Beautifully tragic song

“All the world’s indeed a stage, and we are merely players. Performers and portrayers. Each another’s audience, beyond the gilded cage” Neil Peart 1981 with a nod to William Shakespeare 1599 and it is as true now as ever #Rush #AsYouLikeIt #SocialMedia

I doubt many under 30’s would get the #GoodLife reference 🤣

Congratulations to all the Oldham Athletic fans I know. Really pleased for you. Back in the Football League. I know just how important winning that game today is… #OAFC #EFL

So Peter of P&A Caravans text me what appears a good deal for 5 caravans in Aug for Found Festival. However it’s for a Chris but only got my number. Can 5 degrees of separation do its thing and put Peter and Chris in touch? #FoundFestival #PACaravans #FiveDegreesOfSeparation

Tonight’s #UFO Obsession, NPTR, TWTWATI. Was 16 heard Looking Out for No1. “Just a kid with a crazy dream, wants it all before he’s 17” moved me. Joined Heretic that year and now 47 years later I’m a misspelt footnote. Follow your dreams kids. wouldn’t want anything else 🤘

The absolute howler for their 2nd goal. The ball was very deliberate from Brannagan, had Cumming committed and caught it on the full. Would that have been given as an indirect free kick for a back pass? #OUFC #COYY

As a #Rush fan my current score made me smile. #EFLFantasy

Just waking up, feeling rotten and not relishing the 186 mile drive home. But it was all worth it. What a fabulous day. Thank you to everyone who came and especially those of you who arranged everything to make me look a suitably big enough tit for the occasion 💛💙

“The Boys from Up The Hill” is much underused and still my favourite of the official ones #OUFC

We want Millwall to beat Pompey and in a bizarre 96th minute melee have 5 players (of our choice) sent off

100% agree, same clowns who sing your nothing special we lose every week type of bollocks. It absolutely boils my piss

We went into the weekend 2 points above relegation. We’ve been gubbed heavily against two far superior teams. Draw a line and go again with volume on Saturday #COYY #OUFC

Dave Clarke @daveclarke42.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

It’s a difficult watch as we are being so outclassed. That said we can’t let everything collapse cos we lost heavily to Middlesbrough and Sheff Utd. Always likely to be no points. Millwall (H), Plymouth (A), and QPR (A) needs to be a minimum of 5 points hopefully more #OUFC

Oh no, I can’t believe that “joke” has spiralled through a timeless space to this immortal place. 🙄

We start at the same place but then go off on a slight tangent. 1. Rush 2. Led Zeppelin 3. Steven Wilson/Porcupine Tree 4. Genesis 5. UFO 6. Kansas 7. Yes 8. Pink Floyd 9. Van Halen 10. Jethro Tull

If it was a party, Bluesky is the polite meet and greet element of the evening. Be great when it’s in full swing inhibitions have dropped, everyone is having a great time and the party is in full swing. We just need to hold it there and not let someone come and shit an X into the punch bowl.

Was just to the left of the half way line in the Osler Rd. Loved it in there to be honest and met some top people. I was pretty much directly in line with Joey when he struck that beauty against Blackpool

I was a Right Sider for a number of years. Just to right of the divide and about half way back. Moved over to the Osler Rd when the fence came down over there and they introduced the Manor Club
