@infestfestival.bsky.social last was my 25th Infest, so on /Tuesday Ten /602 this week, I reflect on some of the most surprising performances across the last 25 years or so, as well as some of the new discoveries along the way.

My take on @infestfestival.bsky.social as it moved to Manchester, and it was a lot of (exhausting) fun.

Five years ago this week, we headed down to Folkestone and Dungeness (for me, the first time), and the seed was planted for moving down here.

/Tuesday Ten /599 is about places in Kent, and finding that there are surprisingly few songs about places in the county.

/Tuesday Ten /592 is about songs that go "ooh!", and thirty-odd years after first hearing it in the stands, I finally learn the origins of a football chant.

Songs that go "Na Na Na" make up /Tuesday Ten /588 - and good luck getting most of these out of your head.

I can blame hearing a particular Ashbury Heights song at the weekend for realising I'd never asked about this subject before.

Anyway: your suggestions, please, for songs (*NOT* albums) about or mentioning rumour, hearsay, insinuation and/or gossip.

It's Holy Week this week (and a number of other religious festivals over the month), so this week, /Tuesday Ten /583 delves into religion.

I'm glad it worked out! Hopefully will see you at the London show in September (I'm intending on being there).

It's a day we're celebrating (it's our anniversary today), at least, so...

Your suggestions, please, for songs that are about or reference parties or partying, or just generally having a great time.

It's our 20th anniversary together, and nine years married, tomorrow. So /Tuesday Ten /579 is on an appropriate subject: anniversaries, and the metals and precious stones that represent them.
