I’ve been to sold out gigs at Electric Ballroom before and never seemed it that rammed - must have been one hell of a guest list

Went to Moth Club to see @acidklaus.bsky.social’s work in progress ‘The Magic of Adrian Flanagan’ as support to LIFE - it was a thing of great joy

Looking at that list I think declining to have a conversation with the producers was the right call.

Noooo! I made it with about 10 minutes to spare - had my phone on 5G with Stephen’s details as well, which made it about half way. Hope you find a way.

Mike Batt being entirely correct. And he wrote all the songs for the Wombles who were fucking brilliant.

And for balance … Wednesday sounded dreadful … voice and instruments all wildly out of tune … although I suspect that’s how they always sound

Moderately enjoy Modern Woman, Horsegirl and Cat Power. Unfortunately had to bail early during Getdown Services as was just too rammed in there - will try again in January in the slightly different surroundings of Rockaway Beach at Butlin’s Bognor.

So next Thursday, if you walk in and discover a single-file queue snaking away from the bar, do not join it. Walk past it. Walk directly to an empty bit of bar. Order your pint. You’re not queue jumping. You’re doing your bit to save British pub culture. Eventually the sheep will follow. 🐑😂”
