Milling through the grinder, grinding through the mill.

Gloucestershire, UK
Next up in my White Stripes weekend:

- Get Behind Me Satan
- Icky Thump
- Live at The Gold Dollar (1999)

The live album is from an early Detroit show. It’s rough, messy, raw and still immensely exciting. They were absolute killers live.

It’s a White Stripes night here. Might be a whole White Stripes weekend.

Not going to lie, I thought this was an ad for a blue cheese-scented candle.

Home for the next week. Not too shabby. End of the video shows where we are staying.

Pembrokeshire; just inland from Strumble Head.

Dome - Dome 2 (1980)

One of many Wire side projects, this time Lewis and Gilbert’s sonic explorations. More structured that Dome 1 but still pretty much out there.

"We went into the studio with almost no preparation," Graham Lewis said, "no preconceived ideas as to what it could be."

This choice of quoted lyrics in Leeds puzzled me.

One for the #MDANT folks:

Something I’ve done in retirement is take up stone carving. I was intrigued to find this book recommended in one of the online groups and ordered a copy. It’s just arrived and guess who wrote the back cover blurb?

Nine? Congrats!

We did C2C in 1989. Returned to The Lion this summer and picked up a rock at the same spot to carve a little tribute.

David Bowie - Re:call 6

The last disc of the last album in the last box of my playthrough of all the Bowie Eras box sets that I started back on January 1st, not knowing that the final box would be released just in time.

What a long, strange trip it’s been.
