In a couple of months, it'll be the 40th birthday of the C86 cassette.

So why not prepare for the occasion by reading the Penderyn Prize-shortlisted, Richard Osman-recommended book on what happened next to the 22 bands on the tape?

Available wherever you usually buy your books.

Looking forward to tomorrow night at the Brudenell.

What did Karl Marx predict?

He predicted that under unrestricted Capitalism money would be concentrated into the hands of a handful of individuals, that Governments would become controlled by the richest, and that wages would be subsistence level.

He was right.

"What are Labour going to do to change my life?"

Green Party Co-Deputy Leader & Councillor @mothinali.bsky.social discusses Labour's failure of working class communities, and how Greens are taking the fight to Reform by offering real hope and real change.

Yay. Priceless. The right column at the right time. And a gleefully English two fingers to the haters.

Music gurus help me with any info (gigs etc) for "Follow The Moths", please.
Stumbled across them recently and really impressed and intrigued by the "credited" lineup.

Agreed. Certainly feels wrong seeing it in a school setting.

Great thread on the subject.

Indeed, saw them supporting The Futureheads in Leeds. They were very good.

Don't blame you.

Great photo and an opportunity to plug the Kadampa Leeds temple. I can personally recommend the Tuesday evening meditation classes.

The railway buildings threw me as they reminded me of the buildings still standing behind the "red bus station" and Eastgate.
