Fair enough, but doesnβt change the fact that I donβt like people who havenβt got a copy of Pleasantly Disturbed by @tismeleese.bsky.social on their shelves. Hate βem, really.
Hereβs wishing you a happy and healthy new year, Tony!

As Simple Minds announce their biggest US tour for 40 years, it seems an ideal opportunity to mention my book, Pleasantly Disturbed, about a teenager obsessed with Simple Minds at their glorious stadium peak. Links in bio. Thanks! And, to quote the great man himself, "Let me see those hands!"
