Finding out about the death of Humphrey “Sam Smiths” Smith the way he would have wanted, on my phone while saying “fucking hell”

No wonder I felt excluded by Balsom's Three Wales model. No 'Granadaland Wales'.

Classic pseudo-intellectual bassist chat
Paul Ryder apparently wanted to talk about bass amps, the pseudo-intellectual that he was.

Gina McKee as Libby Shuss in Brass Eye looking a lot like Shabana Mahmood.

You learn something new every day! My law exam was apparently so bad they decided to pretend I hadn't even turned up. I want that hour back WJEC.

This reminds me of reading an interview with Nathan East in Bassist or something as a teen (i thought you had to read these!) where he talked about Phil Collins playing McCartney-esque basslines on his demos and thinking 'how can Phil Collins possibly play the bass, he is a drummer'.

Also feeling very discombobulated that MBV have been playing live and I just decided not to go to any of the gigs, let alone see them repeatedly and/or spend all day on a Megabus

I always wondered who 'Richard Montgomery, a Glaswegian who died last week' was.

How on earth do you people book tours?! Been trying for a month now and, aside from a couple of lovely individuals, we have turned into The Invisible Band. (First couple of weeks of April 2026 if anyone's interested!)

Post a meme you made
The unpopular singer Drake going "oh no thank you" with a caption referring to the Fat White Family who apparently take drugs.

Am pretty stuck at 77.4%, and spent a lot of last night trying to remember a Real People single that was also a western Piccadilly stop (got it eventually).
