NEIL IV: The Horse Lives On, by Scott The Hoople 2 track album

Happy 80th birthday to @neilyoungarchives.bsky.social !! I've recorded a couple new Neil-dedicated songs for the occasion.

It's a wonderful book.

I am so thankful for @tcmtv.bsky.social!! Today I'm especially moved by their not-so-subtle programming of anti-fascist WWII movies. Touchรฉ!

That show was so excellent! Cool pix!

Right? And The Minus 5 did cover "Wicked Annabella" on a 45 in Spain many years ago...

It seems like Jason MUST be in The Minus 5 already, but perhaps not! Let's do something about that soon.

Rock n roll hijinks galore! If they could all be that great. Some might say that they areโ€ฆ but yes, top rank!

I still hate that my โ€˜mishapโ€™ derailed that tour. Both bands were quite simply ON FIRE.

I'm told by those who've listened that this is a really good episode of a really good podcast. It might be too much of me to revisit myself. As Pee Wee Herman once said so poignantly: "I lived it."

Tonight weโ€™ll sing songs of heartbreak and victory. Many about the sport. Others about death and rock n roll. All the usual stuff, smothered in Tabasco.

Fist bumps are the new selfies. We wish!

Yes I actually did it last time on my way to visit with @belleandsebastian.bsky.social !

Aw there are some in the works but scheduling is ferocious. We are four ambitiously ridiculously busy musicians

I wondered if anyone got thatโ€ฆ sorry? Or thanks? It seemed in the mood of the song.

I'm say YES now we will have merch! Get yer LP copy of Oar On Penelope! right there at the gigs. Maybe even a cool t-shirt too

This!! See you in UK (with Minus 5, too) as I take my coveted place as bassist/composer/backing vocalist with Luke & Peter in the BLOW YOUR MIND TOUR. Hebden Bridge, here we come!

31.07.2025 18:21 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 22    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 4    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I think weโ€™ll have some copies! Itโ€™s a tough questionโ€ฆ whether itโ€™s worth to set up a table and pay a merch seller. But Iโ€™m leaning in that direction. Harder still to lug boxes of T-shirts over there! Thanks for asking - Iโ€™ll try to give a definitive answer SOON.
