Went to see Warm Parts at the Puzzle Hall. They were fantastic! Also check out the drummer's hat. Where can I get one of those?

Remember being young and in a band? I guess we still are, but look at these youngsters in a 2001 copy of Kerrang I found in the drawer.

Our set was over in a blur but we had a great time. The beer bottle Jack uses on Like The Sound, Play The Sound broke in practice earlier today, so we had to find a substitute instrument. I think it worked quite well.

Really enjoyed Quick Romance. They are young, full of energy, and very rock and roll influenced without being a pastiche. Loved it.
A picture of a band on stage. Doesn't really capture how energetic they were though.

Meanwhile in Leeds, the costume band show us that they can totally play and that making electronic grunting noises is perfectly fine for between song banter.

We had a blast playing with End of Life Care Plan and Taut Angles. Mary St Live is a cracking little venue too - everyone should get down to their local independant venue because these places are not easy to run!

Fyi, other apps have an end of year wrapped feature. Deezer also has a free playlist transfer service. Just saying.

I hope @academymusicgroup.bsky.social are pleased with their abysmal app that you have no choice but to use when going to one of their venues. Next time I'm buying tickets I'm not going to the Apollo.
