WHAT'S so special about
used teabags? In my house,
every other bit of kitchen rubbish
goes straight in the bin. But not
teabags. They get put on a special
dish next to the kettle to lie in state
for 24 hours in view of everyone.
Are tea bags somehow related to
the Royal Family?

Pfft! I was beaten to my first choice (MSP).

The guy is relentless and always working with interesting acts.

His recent mini album / EP with Skepta is fabulous.

No doubt you’ll hear parts of it when I’m playing music when I see you in a couple of days, as they are in a future 647 locker…

He has a new full album out in December too!

Honestly. The way guys interact with women they don’t know on this app, and other apps, is fucking hilarious.

And (possibly unintentionally) creepy at times as well.

If you are one? Take a look at yourselves. And readjust.

One of the best post club / comedown LPs ever.

And easily one of the best things, and that’s a BIG list, that Andrew Weatherall produced.

An astonishing and beautiful record.

Essential even.

THESE beekeepers are
hypocrites. They're always
banging on about how we must
save the bees because they're so
important, and then they go and
open up a hive, create a smoke
screen and steal all their food. It's
an odd way of caring if you ask me.

I was introduced to this beauty via a compilation Hunter S Thompson put out in the late 90s.

(it’s called “Where Were You When The Fun Stopped?”)

Chock full of known classics and wee gems.

Brilliant track.

And the Cowboy Junkies fragile cover of it is great too. Worth seeking out if you don’t know it.

It’s funny. I don’t know how many times I’ve played it over the years. It never gets old.

The tunes are deadly.

This is the first time I’ve started Shazamming it for treasure for future 647s.

I’ve already bagged this old first generation Dubstep rumbler..!

The first stage dive I ever done was at a Therapy? concert in a tiny venue in Glasgow.

Made more memorable as my body was being treated like a rope in a tug of war!

The crowd pulling me towards them, the security pulling me back to the stage!

The crowd won.

My aching body didn’t.

I RECENTLY bought a new
laptop which, to my surprise,
was made by HP. This must be
a really progressive company to
diversify from producing baked
beans, soup and tomato sauce
to making computers. Their
competitors should take a leaf out
of HP's book and get busy. Maybe
we could see new gadgets like a
Fray Bentos Fitbit, Batchelors
Bluetooth Earbuds or even a Mr
Kipling Raspberry Smartphone.
