TODAY! What better way to spend a wet Sunday afternoon than listening to an eclectic mix of music? The wonderful thing about BYO Vinyl is that I never know what I'm going to play - and I always discover new music. Bring along records 2-6pm to Clash at the Dartington Cider Press centre.

I'm doing a play-your-record-collection-in-its-entirety challenge. It's already taken weeks! This week, I've been on F and The Fall! Have got through 8 LPs & 9x12"s so far. I surprised myself by flinging myself around the room to this the most: #fallfriday youtu.be/TknrfLy2Ots?...

Not to be outdone by Duran Duran, Bananarama & Erasure, the goddess that is Annie Lennox has now set off on her epic journey from Scotland to Things Happen Here in Devon for tomorrow's 80s Night. 8-11pm. Here's the *actual* footage. I told her to bring a coat. She wasn't having any of it. Hardcore.

My daughter started an Art Foundation course this week. You would thinkparticipants would be fully engaged in popular culture. But - she was chatting to another young person, and they'd never heard of The Smiths or Joy Division. How is this even possible?!

Just heard that Andy Bell from Erasure is on his way to 'Into the Groove' tomorrow night! His mates from Duran Duran, Bananarama & Spandau Ballet told him what a great time they had; he's got a serious case of FOMO. Let's hope he can make it for 8pm. Here's *actual* footage of his journey. Respect!

Idea for band merch: most gigs I've been to recently have an upper size limit of A4 for bags. Totes are too big. I'd buy a branded, gig-compliant bag.
