garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 30/03/2026I was going to post this earlier but I will always associate it with the bad Stuart Hall saying it about Danny Mills on Final Score and thought better of it. 010

garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 19/03/2026No wonder I felt excluded by Balsom's Three Wales model. No 'Granadaland Wales'. 010
garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 12/03/2026The headline takes a turn if you assume (as i do) that Moz uses 'letting off' for farting. 110
garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 10/03/2026Ah great, I've got a new extension lead that needs some identification aids adding to it 100

garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 30/11/2025This 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'. 030
garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 30/11/2025Ha i knew he couldn't really play the bass, the big fraud. 030
garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 28/11/2025This is great, played it through twice tonight. It reminds me of early Verve (complimentary!) 110
garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 28/11/2025Also 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 020
garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 28/11/2025Just got vertigo at the realisation mbv is now older than those EPs were when *I* first heard them 051
garethj @mapref.bsky.social · 27/11/2025There's a Baltic shop near us that usually has them, and Lidl's occasional Scandi week. Shouldn't be so hard though! 010
