Today is Mental Health Awareness Day. It's been an up-and-down last 8 months, which is why i took leave off here due to some outside interference, but i am looking at the upcoming positives. if there is a song that captures my mind this time of year, its this one i recently. Keep well folks.

Its me mam's birthday next week, and as she was often doing cool things in my kneehigh years, she met him while on holiday in spain and got a photo in the mid 90s. good to know the higgins fame game expands it reach before my eventual "small time celeb" status

this whole "9 albums" thing i'm giving a miss. its impossible to select 9 decent albums as my music taste changes every year or so. i'll look back in a year or so and go, "christ, i didn't have listen to some right crap" so i'll give you a album i'm currently enjoying:-

I'm only familiar with this Stevie Wonder song due to a German fella who does covers of tunes on a Hammond organ, who looks like Elton John called Mambo Kurt having his way with it. He performs at wacken every year though, so more power to him #totp www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFo9...

my middle-class ex looked like Alison Moyet on occasion. One of the funnier moments was going to a pub in manc & this fishwife at the bar was gabbing loudly, "Did you see that STATE of that goth couple that walked out?" & we just walked in, duo eyeliner, looking weird. She soon went scthum #totp

i got invited to see ska punk band Random Hand tonight. i ducked out as i've just finished work. to coincide with this, here's when i saw them in 2015. i'm at the front. Someone's head collided with my side in the pit & my side went aubergine. I can pinpoint where it starts going wrong (0:04)

The replacement for people's party on BBC 6 is honestly a breath of fresh air. Not that I dislike fela kuti and afrobeat, but every week was monotonous at best.

eeriely was a tune that (UK serial killer) Dennis Neilsen used to enjoy to get himself in the mood to kill people. odd little tidbit for an otherwise interesting record at the time

I'm performing this next Friday. Logistically, because I only drive fairly short distances, it's gonna be a pain to get to. The Dirt are fab, though. i'm in the middle as i'm following some band who I haven't heard which could go either way. What'll happen? We will find out.

the sunset thing which means i'm new here has now officially set. which means i'm here for the long run. i'll start friday off with this and then continue then on in www.youtube.com/watch?v=bt25...

Stalin are amazing. i also recommend early Mad Capsule Markets. Their look before their switch into gear to a more nu-metal-styled look was quite amazing in the early 90s

The Coolers, Halifax. closed now, but I used to drink here, when i was 19 i bought a pint. finding a sense of newfound adulthood, i went for another. I was refused and almost kicked out as i got someone to buy me one. aside from getting offered out by twats & metalheads, not a lot of fond memories

In other news, the lapdance bar is now up for sale. I notice they keep the sign lights on after hours probably to get the hopes of any desperate blokes wanting to indulge in a game of pocket billards after a pint over the road

Upon noticing they'll give plaques to any old shit these days, I just passed the accapulco, "the oldest night club in britain" its a dump. I swear when nuclear fallout happens two things will survive: that place and cockroaches getting pissed there

The local mooches down piece hall have a halloween appeal about them today. I dropped a piece of chicken by mistake, wolfed it down and this guy watched me eat the rest of my kebab today with hungry eyes.

on 28th of november, the band is getting back together for a support role. there's been not much movement from us all year due to schedules, drinks, heart break, writing, failed ideas and no bookings so this could be the last time to see us before we hibernate again

saw the local "hebden Tim Westwood" taking the piss out of vinyl-only DJs. but mate, you're one. let it be known when we last spun you didn't pay me & the other DJs were incapable. i spin stuff like now, so i don't need a group of mid 40 something vape smoking "hip hop heads" controlling the decks.
