I know Nestle are evil, but I just found out that they have started to sell Golden Grahams again in the UK and I can stop having to fly to Spain to get them. I almost burst into tears in Home Bargains #forgiveme

The @normanrecords.com reviews of Mark Kozelek albums were always objectively better than actually listening to the albums
There is a new Sun Kil Moon LP out today which has a 13 minute song about the time he got really bad constipation on tour. I miss your Mark Kozelek reviews! www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLbt...

This Renaldo & The Loaf doc is fantastic. They manage to make music that is simultaneously unlistenable and insanely catchy. And lovely blokes too. Recommended if you want to remind yourself that the world isn't all awful bastards

Told elderly neighbour my son was a big fan of Minecraft. She looked horrified. Very awkward conversation followed as I claimed it was all good fun and helped develop children's creativity, until it became apparent she thought I'd said Mein Kampf.

I love this channel - a seemingly never-ending stream of London gigs from 1996-2003. So much "we've finally made it - we're playing LONDON!" energy in every performance. And so many woeful "pin in a dictionary" band names.
