My friend went to Krankenhaus this weekend and came back raving about seeing the film King Rocker. I designed this last year but did nothing with it. That’s fine, but I wanted to put it out there again to show my appreciation for having Vindaloo records in my early teens. Bostin’.

Times are tough, what cover band should we be?

The Guardian @theguardian.com · Aug 19

They’re among the best in British indie. So why have Field Music become a Doors cover band?

Faced with ‘catastrophic financial doom’ in a difficult industry, the Sunderland outfit explain why imitating Jim Morrison is their way to survive

@nightingalesuk.bsky.social were my overall #RebellionFestival highlight. Old guitarist Alan standing in for Jim who is on sick leave. Good to hear older songs from the albums Alan played on, but best wishes to Jim and hope he's back performing soon.

Our promotional album/tour beermats went a bit out of date & we never got round to sending them out. I’ve dropped a load off at a favourite Birmingham boozer Rock&Roll Brewhouse - go visit & get a pint and a beermat whilst you’re at it
