Chris / Looking Suite

Plus you can sing it to the tune of “Have a Banana”

Not to be technical, but it’s only krautrock if I can do a quick little walk to it and pretend I’m a little futuristic train

Is it fair to ask wedding guests for contributions towards your @greenmanfest.bsky.social tickets rather than “useful” or “practical” things? We’re trying to make it a honeymoon!

Upon re-reading this I sound like an actual addict

I had a phaser I put on everything. Then I became numb to it. So now I have another two phasers for when I want to feel the phasing on top of my base level

A fun personality test is “Which guy from Jaws are you?” Reckless/determined like Quint? Smart like Hooper? Sensible like Brody?

I personally am the cop who cries into their whistle when they see the severed hand.

I played as a kid, loved it. Bought the remakes and, while still loving it, I have become VERY TERRIBLE at it

These things tend to move in cycles

Big Mootoo the expressive dog is smiling in a swimming pool - mirroring my happiness and satisfaction at having finished an album

Big Mootoo is grimacing as he has to get out of the swimming pool- mirroring the hassle of having to promote a new album

How I feel when I finish a new album
vs
How I feel when I realise I have to promote said album

Very irresponsible (it is of course these small zine purchases that are affecting my budget, not the multiple city pop albums I’ve bought and have paid postage for from Switzerland. Not my own fault at all)

Well now I’ve bought some zines as a present for Kate when I was meant to be being sensible til payday. Hope your pleased with yourself

Hey! HEY! Important question! How cute would a person have to be before a beanie baby was made of them?

Having just had a haircut I think I may be reaching levels of forehead that allow this design to be feasible

But! On the flip side of Beato, you have What Makes This Song Stink. A series I love so much I think it might have been crafted in a lab specifically to cater to all the things I find fun. Cannot recommend more

I’d be concerned for my bladder… which WILL self destruct!

Ex Easter Island Head. Still one of the best live bands currently doing stuff

Also visible: my second best mug and an Elemis face mask I got for free and put there so I would remember to use it BEFORE PILING PEDALS AND POWER SUPPLIES OVER IT

An unnecessary amount of wires going into the new live set. TRYING to eliminate the use of my laptop but it’s just convenient using it to power stuff and play recordings of lakes. Promise that I’m making all of (what you could charitably call) the music

Singing this to the tune of Pink Pony Club

Seeing actual fans saying this about their own teams is mind boggling! Last season when Liverpool fell out of the title race I saw a fan share highlights from some of their wins with a b&w filter and sad music saying “So all this was for nothing”

How do you survive life with that attitude??

I think Mozart and Salieri should work it out on the remix

Really enjoying this classic Sesame Street segment, two minutes of freestyle jazz riffing on saxophone factory footage

Oh precisely! Though in a few months would you fancy doing some shows together? Provided I can source enough gaffer tape and wires to get this idea working

Hehe, I realise I am complaining about situations that are entirely with my control and I have actively chosen to do! (Insert We’re all trying to find the guy who did this pic here)

I’m putting together a rig for a new idea for a live set. The frustrating part of assembling this rig is the first parts are the non-fun, utility parts like power supplies and duplicate loopers.
WHEN CAN I GET NEW EFFECTS PEDALS DANGIT?

In the interest of fairness, I think it’s about time that Lions made honey in a bee’s skull.

The film about him is out. I’m reading a Greil Marcus book about him. May as well put on one of the best albums there ever was

Would love a Nickel Boys win. I think it’s only up for best picture though so it’ll have to go big.

There’s no easier way to give yourself a little bit of harmless fun than doing a lil Bob Dylan impression. Any era. Always fun to do.

Did anyone get anything for Christmas that they really want to excitedly tell people about?
