Great performance from Maximo Park last night (although I would’ve preferred more old songs). I missed Manc mayor Andy Burnham who was there too. #musicsky

New Order on Saturday night, I saw Peter Hook & the Light - I think he did a better set (JD &NO greatest hits) but they had a much bigger, fuller sound.

Day 3. Just finished fairytale and wasn’t a fan (the book of lost things similar but far better imo). But SK has written some absolute classics.

I'll go for day 2... The TV show did a great job, but I loved the book. The first (chronologically) of Clavell's Asian saga was my favourite.

First post on BlueSky, so let's make it an innocuous one... not sure I'll go the distance, but I like these favourite books/ albums/movie posts
