I remember that one! Must look it out again. Meanwhile, if anyone's up for 1666 and all that, here's my novella Coldwell. Plague, the machinations of power and a strong dash of folk horror in the shape of an underground giant.

As 'Folk Horror' seems to be all the rage amongst the woolly jumpered hipsters, I recommend 'Riddley Walker' by Russel Hoban. A book that I often think about. It's super wyrd, unlike much else, and brilliant. I give it 5/5 of your white man stars.

It's a Fun Fall Album. And if he were here, i'd say it to MES' face, and i'd enjoy the reaction.

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 6d

It's good. I'd go for Imperial Wax Solvent, and also make a case for New Facts Emerge as a terrifying soundtrack to this parting of the veils time of year!

A friend of mine met Wayne F at one of his less sulubrious gigs and asked ' So Wayne, when does the mindbending begin?' Went as well as you'd expect.

Gouldman is great, I'm sure you know, he wrote hits for The Yardbirds - when he was about 16 - and made them really good. And made Eric Clapton go away ( for a bit) *pulls intense mojo journo face. And explodes*

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 6d

I think we might be making the same point, but good that 'they' have bestowed the name of 'Mountbatten'. Cos, he was another really great guy.

It's a good start to see the fall of Andrew Saxe Coburg. It's not enough though. Let's hope it sinks the whole vile firm, and all the rotten talentless creeps who operate under their con job operation. We don't need these thick arseholes.

If anyone's messaging me on here - then, er, I can't see my messages.

A couple more BBR songs are piling on the Spotify streaming, and our cover of Terry Jacks Seasons In The Sun is currently number 8 in the Tiktok chart. Which, is probably something. I've no idea what's going in!

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 13d

Ha. Yeah the ongoing (beyond thr grave) feud between Brock and NT is one of rocks best feuds.

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 13d

I shall be popping up with Swell Maps this eve at The Lexington. They have recorded a new album that is fantastic to which i have contributed a song! A few tix may be available for tonight...

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 13d

Looks good. I shall buy.

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 14d

Happy birthday Lynette 'Squeaky' Fromme. Attempted assassinator and the best of the Manson gals.

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 15d

Swell Maps at The Lexington this Friday (24th). I shall be doing a guest spot. Pow!

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 15d

I have never been able to bring myself to listen to that one...

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 17d

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 17d

Child Psych streaming at 60 mil. 1.4 mill monthly listeners. Trebles all 'round for our record label and spotify. Not so much for us. Poor me, wah wah wah. Life is unfair.

Sure. I know who you are talking about. I said some rash things in a bad temper, so would be happy to give a more honest responce. Followed - do dm.

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 19d

We went to the Mathew Colliings art thing at Edgware Road. Brilliant drawings and excellent words. MC doesn't give a shit about who he annoys. Loved it. 5 white man stars from me. My fave: 'Moliere and Samuell Becket Despise Starmer' Bless you Mathew Collings.

Guitar heads: anyone know about replacement whammy bar for a 1966 Fender Jag?

'To our children's children's children'

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 26d

John Lodge departed. Love the Moodies. Madly original, laughed at by halfwit Led Zep fans. Melotron Brummie mavericks.

Luke Haines @lukehaines.bsky.social · 26d

Christ, this 'Becoming Led Zeppelin'film is dull. Total hagiography and a white wash. Gave up half way through as Jimmy Page droned on about his studio greatness.
