Just sent from Jonny Mattock: @healees.bsky.social , P*ss Shivers (Jonny's band), Pills For Tomorrow and Mushroom Tea (guessing that's the 4th, not an aperitif!) Quality shoegaze bill at The Lab in Northampton, and if I didn't have my own gig I'd be driving down for this! @spacemenp.bsky.social

Rarest of the rare, S3 demos on cassette. Photo found on the interwebs…
Well that's the next month's worth of weekend looks sorted.
Bonus! And a mini-flashback to Spring 1992.

In a blatant cheat move, I'm posting a missed out song each day too using an unofficial hashtag!

Spacemen 3 - Revolution

"And I'm tired
I'm so tired
Of a lot of people in a lot of high places
Who don't want you and me to enjoy ourselves"

Getting there: Mono is about a ten minute walk from St. Enoch subway and Glasgow Central Station.

If you are around even earlier, you can visit Monorail Music, a friendly record shop tucked away at the back of the café. They close at 7:00 pm – check out their website: monorailmusic.com

Four weeks to go until our birthday celebrations for Jason ‘Spaceman’ Pierce and Pete ‘Sonic Boom’ Kember, the core of Spacemen 3. Here are some more details about the venue.
My wife: "They're playing something by Spacemen 3 on the radio."

Me: "Oh yeah, O.D. Catastrophe."

I may have to hand in my fan badge.

(In my defence, I had just emerged from doing 100 minutes on the exercise bike.)
Bob produced Spacemen 3's debut Sound Of Confusion when their fist choice, Pat Fish, wasn't available. The band weren't impressed with the results, but it works well as a record of their early heavy sound.

Spacemen 3 - Threebie 3 EP

Peak Spacemen drones. The perfect prescription while drafting performance reviews.
Pete Bain: "Trees were down everywhere, shop alarms ringing, about fifty miles from Rugby the wind died down.”

Drummer Sterling Roswell recalls: “The van kept lifting off the road on the drive back to Rugby was really fckin scary.”
Bassist Pete Bain recalls: “I went down on the beach with Jason, the wind was really strong, I was holding my leather jacket open and trying to take off. It was only when we left that we saw the true scale of the damage."
38 years ago this evening, Spacemen 3 played a gig at the Zap Club in Brighton. This was the night when the South of England was hit by a huge storm. The damage was extensive, with an estimated 15 million trees torn down, and there were several deaths.
