I’ve been playing about with creating new feeds this week.
This one should show gig pictures (as long as someone uses the word gig in their post).
Have a try and pin it if you think it might be of interest, the more feed options the better I’m finding.

15. Lotus Flower [Jacques Greene RMX]
TKOL RMX 1234567
2011
The only non-standard album track I’ve selected, as this is one where I like the remix even more than the original. The first of several from TKOL.

16. Paranoid Android

1997
Think it was hearing this played as a single on the radio that made me reevaluate what I thought Radiohead was like, then buying OKC after reading the rave reviews, and I’ve never looked back.

A lot of people don't know that Nobel laureates get two medals. A real gold one usually kept in a safe deposit box and a gold plated duplicate for public display.

I made a ratings graph to show the staggering growth of #TheTraitors
I think it’s safe to say this is the biggest unscripted / reality show ever, as by the end of S4 you’ll find that a quarter of the ENTIRE UK population has watched the *whole* series 🤯
It just keeps going! 🔥

Shocked and saddened to hear about the passing of Kenny Morris. I only posted the other day about my love for the Siouxsie/Severin/McKay/Morris line-up of The Banshees. Those first two Banshees albums are incredible and his drumming was an integral part of their sound.

What an album!
Just relistened for my debut albums consideration, and in any other 5-year period I’d likely pick it, but alas too many of my very faves in 90-94.
But please do listen if you like late Talk Talk, ambient post-rock, as it’s a classic.

The daughter of a friend's friend is making a film about the bands that played at Minsthorpe High School in the late 80s/early 90s – the likes of the Weddoes, Cud, House of Love etc.
They're trying to track down the teachers who put the bands on – Mel and Trev. Anyone know them?
