After subscribing to Jockey Slut for many years and then Disco Pogo since it’s launch a couple of years back the latest edition is my most treasured. Copies are landing on doormats this morning.
Balearic Mike suggested I step into his shoes for an issue and write about Saint Etienne’s best moments!

Went to a ‘record fair’ earlier, just one dude and a box of unpriced stuff; went to local shop, came out with two Innovative Communications albums, one from Coda’s New Age series, top nick 12s of SUAD’s £10/£20 to get in and remixes of Testone plus the OG of Skank Bloc Bologna by Scritti Politti.

Lovely gig last night, great crowd in and Alice Palace played a blinder, as expected. No booze for me. Up with the lark and watching the Sussex countryside glow beneath a cloudless sunny sky, from an on-time train. Juat a hilly Hastings half marathon in the post storm winds can spoil my vibe.

Anyone out there in Brighton, this one’s for you… the brilliant Alice Palace is DJing at West Hill Tavern tonight. Me and that Dave Holloway from Do!!You!!! radio are doing the warm up. It’ll be good, and I think you should join us.

Not making much use of this platform. Admittedly @dannykelly.bsky.social & @adampowley.bsky.social had to drag me here but now I’ve dipped my toe in I guess I should make the best of it. Who do I need to follow loves? Make it worthwhile for me!

51 years old and just back on the south coast from a 48 hour round trip to DJ in Stockport.
Absolutely made up that I can do that, get to play records alongside some of the best there's ever been - Boardman and Moonboots no less - and still be awake at 8:30 on a Sunday night.
Just.

Pops in to check for @adampowley.bsky.social take on the Levy news.
My tuppence worth:
1. Odd timing - has he been pushed?
2. Better the devil you know, surely - what do we know about the new guy?
3. Time Sky Sports realised that one podcaster is not a spokesperson for a fanbase. Especially ours!

Mark Seven, Wrekin Havoc, Boardman and Moonboots, Kelvin and Balearic Mike. etc etc.
Hoping to see Steve KIW dressed only in a towel and not giving a fuck. 😆

Just when I wanted out of social media they dragged me back in.
The truth is I only came over to see how many times @dannykelly.bsky.social had mentioned the words 'Steve' and 'towel' in the same sentence...
