Wow! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

Well, this is a phenomenal piece of writing (I haven’t fully read it yet). Isn’t music amazing that we can all hear the same lyrics & tunes, but all hear / feel something different?
Bright Eyes is my no.1 song of all time, followed by Drummer and Kiss Your Lips. I’ve not done a top 69…yet!

They were fantastic, weren’t they? (as were all the bands). One of the best All Dayer line ups, a great day of awesome music.

Must apologise to @thejustjoans.bsky.social for failing to think of a witty reply to David complimenting my t-shirt and for my daughter falling in to Katie whilst dancing to Twat Union! Will aim for better behaviour from both of us at Winter Sprinter! 😀 What a sensational day full of great music.

@allodarlin.bsky.social well tonight was pretty awesome also. Never been to EartH before, I thought the sound was stunning. Great to see a different set from Tuesday. Loved it. Enjoy the rest of the shows and see you again soon

This was brilliant and loved that you got to chat too. My favourite band on my favourite radio show - perfect.

WOW!!

Amazing gig.
See you Thursday

I love it when bands, venues or promoters proactively give out the timings. Thanks for doing this.

But AD not on stage until 9.30??? Ooooooh, I’m going to be tired tomorrow. Just as well I’ve only got work and not anything important to do on Wednesday 😁

Can’t wait!

Amazing, thank you. 10pm is great finish time (I’m getting old!!)

Do you have an estimated end time for London? Need to work out whether it’ll be early enough for me to get a train home or not (I don’t live in London). Ta

Thanks for a great night tonight @fortitudevalley.bsky.social @sweepingthenation.bsky.social
A brilliant gig packed with awesome songs.
On another note, here’s Gary reading his birthday card earlier today!

All great news, excited for the new album and looking forward to seeing you in Cambridge.

Awesome. Thank you very much 👍

ITV showing their commitment to cycling perfectly there!

Really looking forward to Thursday in Leicester (& Cambridge Indiepop in Nov). Do you have an idea of timings? I know it’s a pain when people ask this, but I don’t live in Leicester and need to work out travel.

I really hope not, that would be a shame as it would mean no chance of being able to watch the women’s race in a couple sectors and then make it back to the velodrome.

Two support acts!! I can see this going on way past my bedtime!! 😀

Are you able to share start time so I can work out travel?

Brave comments from Martin at the weekend, but followed through with his line up. Will be interesting if he can keep the dressing room happy when he’s calling out and dropping players. Fans will be happy if results come.

Also, PFP went up in my estimations when I experienced the excitement of the French crowd at the Roubaix velodrome this year.
Plus she’s not SD Worx or Demi Vollering, so I’m happy with the projected outcome (still time for AvdB to gain another 9 mins though!! 😂)

I’ve not been able to follow the race as closely this year as I was…err… in France! But busy doing holidaying stuff. Caught the end of each stage and listened to the daily Cycling Podcasts and I’ve been captivated. Something different each day. But I do get easily excited by cycling

Very excited for this. Got tickets to two shows and bought the album last week - only had time to listen to it once so far, a lovely piece of work

PFP didn’t exactly take 10 years off from cycling though, she was still pedalling pretty hard. How you gonna feel at the end of today when AvdB wins the stage by 10 mins having actually retired?

When I was 9, a Scot finishing 4th at the TdF gave me a lifelong love of the sport. Thank you @pippayork.bsky.social. I hope what Oscar Onley has done inspires a load of 9 year old Scots, just like it has this 50 year old. So proud waving my saltire in Paris yesterday 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It passed me by that they had an album. A quick visit to Bandcamp and I’ve remedied that. Looking forward to enjoying it.

Very good, although ramshackle sounds like it would be a messy noise, yet Indiepop to me is beautifully melodic. I’ll try something similar next time, but am totally reserving the right to just change my friends.

Question for Indiepoppers. How do you explain Indiepop to others? As soon as the word indie comes out, people can’t get past Britpop in their head. Sighing and then trying to talk about bands they’ve never heard of doesn’t help. Should I just get new work colleagues and friends?

Just wait until next year when he wins 21 stages all in the same race!

As a relatively recent convert to Indiepop (15 years or so), I’m always on the lookout for stuff I don’t know, so will follow with eager anticipation

Every day. And I’m ok with that.

And I’ve now seen the line up for Cambridge Indiepop. I’ll start queuing for tickets right now!!
