It's a white man, of course 🤷‍♀️

Cover of a cd called Post by Björk. Björk is a dark haired woman, standing in from of a colourful decor with lots of orange and pink. She is wearing a white jacket that looks like it was made of airmail envelopes.

That was a great year, I would cheat and also include this one:

Peacocks sound like a cat that is being strangled.

Old church turned into concert venue. The stage is lit with blue lights. Behind the old stained glass windows are visible.

And now waiting for KT Tumstall at the Paradiso. It's the 20th anniversary of her debut, been a fan ever since 😊

Room in a museum with displays with modern graphical art and books

Restaurant table with plates of Indian food and breads

Afternoon in Amsterdam, first some art and then some vegetarian Indian food...

Als ik langsloop raap ik de gave exemplaren die gevallen zijn. Maar vorige week had ik mijn vriend mee, die is lekker lang en kon ook bij een paar takken en ze plukken 😁

A big tree, zoomed in on branches with a large amount ofreddish little plums.

in een parkje bij ons in de buurt staat een enorme boom met allemaal kleine pruimpjes. En ze zij nog lekker ook!

Lots of people in a dance area with in the back a dj stage. The sky is full of dark clouds.

A whole pizza margarita with in the background some people on the sandy grass.

Last day of the #RockWerchter festival we had a bit of a gap in our schedule, so visited the dance area. And I also finally found the good pizza!

It is an amazing venue, great sound and atmosphere. The whole thing is only temporary for the festival! There is also a smaller tent like it, a smaller open stage and a big huge main stage! It is one of the biggest festivals of Europe 💖.

Inside a bigg festival tent with soft lights on the ceiling. The stage has been set up for the band and there are already a lot of people in the crowd.

Waiting for #Elbow now. We started heavy with Amenra from Belgium, then Beth Giibons who was wonderful. More to come, too! Feet are hurting already 😋 #RockWerchter

Big stage before the show in enormous festival tent that is still quite pty. There are big screens to each side.

Erormous festival tent with strings of lights hanging on the ceiling.

Big festival tent that is still quite empty, but there are stalls on the side where people are sitting. The end of the tent is open and daylight is pouring in.

Now waiting in the big tent (the Barn) for #Underworld. We're early so still empty. But I am sure it will be full, and it can fit almost 20.000 people!

Big festival stage on a sunny day with a big crowd.

Smaller festival stage with a band playing and lots of people in front of it.

Empty stage in a big, daek festival fent. Some coloured lights are shining on stage.

At the #RockWerchter festival in Belgium and had a packed day already. Lots of fun with De La Soul, Lambrini girls and more 😎. Now waiting for London Grammar, and then Deftones and Linkin Park.😊

I was there, too!

Bad photo of a stage that has curtains, bathing in red light.

Smaller stage in a big concert hall, woth red lights and heads of the audience.

Waiting for @nin.com in Amsterdam! They have two stages, exciting stuff 🤓

Long tailed tits are possibly my favourite birds. But the are so fast!

Many, many years ago when I was young, I had dyed parts of my hair bright pink. I still had an unopened bottle of magenta #stargazer dye left, but never used it. Must have been over 20 years old(!). Last weekend I finally had the courage to use it again. Very happy with the result 😊💖.

They are still very nice people!

As was often the case, Prince had the rights of it, ahead of time… #NoKings

He was funny 😁

Wow!

We were raised on the Beach Boys, so yeah 😢

5-panel comic. (1) [teacher with long hair next to whiteboard] TEACHER: I’m supposed to give you the tools to do good science. (2) [teacher addressing students] But what *are* those tools? Methodology is hard and there are so many ways to get incorrect results. What is the magic ingredient that makes for good science? (3) TEACHER: To figure it out, I ran a regression with all the factors people say are important: [embedded list in sub-panel, cut off at end] Outcome variable: correct scientific results. Predictors: collaboration; skepticism of others’ claims; questioning your own beliefs; trying to falsify hypotheses; checking citations; statistical rigor; blinded analysis; financial disclosure; open data (4) TEACHER: The regression says two ingredients are the most crucial: 1) genuine curiosity about the answer to a question, and 2) ammonium hydroxide. (5) STUDENT: Wait, why did *ammonia* score so high? How did it even get on the list? LONG HAIR: ...And now you’re doing good science!

Good Science

Well, less important for Pulp, anyway 😉. Amsterdam is great, but there are many places in the NL which are even better, less crowded with tourists 😊

Amsterdam! It was a show before they had some big festival dates planned around Spain, I think. Bit like a big rehearsal in a less important country 😊. They had not been since the 90s or something 😁

Loveky! I saw them last year and didn't know what to expect, but they were also really great 😊

Born Prince Rogers Nelson today in Minneapolis in 1958, Prince was talented, with a matchless work ethic. Before he was 20, he had signed with Warner Bros. By the spring of 1978 he released his first lp – For You (featuring “I’m Yours” & “My Love is Forever”). No one in music ever outworked Prince.
