The last two nights of live music have been real mood boosters. It’s something I’ve been missing lately. Happy but tired today.

Jon Anderson tomorrow. Marillion on Tuesday. Busy start to the week.

Just got an email saying The Enid are pretty much finished as a band. There might be one more album. Sad news but not really surprising.

I’ll give the Prog Rock Prom a listen. It would have been nice to have it televised.

I can remember the heatwave of 1976. We went on a family holiday to Blackpool. It was overcast and the air was so electric lighting bolts were flashing around the top of street lamps.

I saw lots of posts this morning from people complaining that “person” was trending in their social media. Do they STILL not know how this stuff works?

I got one of those FiiO portable CD players. It’s great. It plays everything my older player won’t including the mini CDs from @claypipemusic.bsky.social.

The magnificence of Alexander 'Greek' Thomson's 1850s Holmwood House. In my opinion, this is Thomson's finest surviving building. #glasgow #architecture #holmwood #architecturephotography #alexandergreekthomson

I missed the news that Chip Taylor had died recently. We had him play a show at our local arts centre back in the 90s when I worked there. He sang all his hit songs and told some great stories. A memorable night.

Feels like Scottish summer is here. Better make the most of it because it’ll be gone by the end of May. 🌞

I bought a little exercise contraption recently. It’s making an excellent stand for all of my headphones. 🎧

Enjoyed the first two seasons of Dark Winds. There's some really nice song choices for certain scenes. Use of David Crosby and Nick Drake songs particularly good.

I watched an episode of the old sitcom The Liver Birds. There was a concert poster on a wall for The Flying Burrito Brothers supported by Barbara Dickson. That was an interesting bill.

Nice bit of stickering by someone in Waterstones. I wonder if it was intentional.

A book. The Drums by Mike Joyce. Photo of The Smiths on the cover. A money off sticker covers Morrissey’s face.

I wonder how many people will be in for a shock when they try and get in to the USA next year for the World Cup. Better start scrubbing those social media accounts.

Does absolutely everything have to be put through some sort of political filter these days before you’re allowed to enjoy it or not? I’m tired of it all.
