I was torn between this and another Sex Gang Children tune so pleased I went with this. Btw, don’t ever google Sex Gang Children with out putting the word band on the end of the name.😂

Obviously, they love the 80s but there’s no harm in that. Decent stuff.

It’s fine. I’m going to start adding random music hall stars to my conversations now, to see who notices.😂

I was wondering about you mentioning a music hall star from yesteryear?

CoinneachRooney @coinneachrooney.bsky.social · 20h

I think it was Syd Barrett that wrote Baby Lemonade?😂

I saw a rat up near the cathedral, they are pretty prominent near the river too. I do believe we get them round here from time to time too.

I had a similar discussion about AL recently. He was with Baby Lemonade when I saw him.

We don’t have any urban foxes but we do have deer in the field which over looks our street. Very rare to see one tho.

It was a lot of money at the time. We saw Arthur Lee around the same time and he was much cheaper, which in many ways is a little sad considering his legacy. He was great too.

When Brian Wilson came back in from the wilderness the tickets were nearly £50, that was a sign of the future. It was worth it for him tbh.

Squirrels are pretty much the dominant species around the riverbanks and woods of Durham. Especially, when the students are away.😂

Hell.

Psycho Squirrels, qu'est-ce que c'est?

I can’t remember how much we paid last time in 2017 but it was no where near that much.

CoinneachRooney @coinneachrooney.bsky.social · 20h

Haha. I can remember my mate being surrounded by them in Regents Park. In those places they get used to people

Daft, trying to pet one like.😂

The tickets started at 87 I think, if you were lucky enough to get one of those. Better seats were £164.

Had the squirrel been invited to Xmas lunch? Got nasty after a few glasses of Sherry?

CoinneachRooney @coinneachrooney.bsky.social · 21h

I tried for Kraftwerk tickets this week but all the cheap seats went on a presale which seemed unavailable to me, they started at £110 so I declined. Seen them before anyway, there’s only one original member so the others could be anybody 😤

Don’t worry, I think it’s hilarious.
