It’s true, I’d rather be terrified by a film than horrified.

Killer set from @perennialtheband.bsky.social at @exchangebristol.bsky.social last night. Top draw New-England power pop trio with ace Rick-Vox tone and low end keys.

GIG! We're going to be at @bunkhouseswansea.bsky.social on Saturday 24th January 2026 - hope you can be there too!

TIX here: bunkhousebar.gigantic.com/p/the-bunkho...

And fIREHOSE!

Same! Plus That Petrol Emotion.

The new @thebeths.bsky.social album, ‘Straight Line Was A Lie’ is as perfect a guitar pop album as you’ll ever hear. Just like their previous 3 albums.

I’d maybe start with Smoke on the Water. Post a video.

I hope when you tried it out in the shop you did Venus in Furs. That must be the Smoke on the Water for the indie violist.

They were fantastic. Also Fatima Mansions blew me away in the tent.

Lugosi? I didn’t have him down as a Bauhaus fan.

Light Purple

This band totally blew me away when I first heard them back in 83, and still do when I occasionally listen to them. I still say they’re my favourite band if the question comes up.

The always excellent BODEGA in Bristol last night. People talk about band chemistry but rarely have I seen a band so perfectly in sync with each other on stage. Every person has a huge presence that that only ever compliments.
Plus, the songs are killer.

Honestly one of the funniest shows I’ve seen in my life.

Stations of the Crocs!

You’ve got your Joy Division oven gloves? Now try CRASS CROCS!

Same in the UK. Randy = horny.

Whoop! Buds in Manchester in October..

WOOF! Not going to miss you this time.

Fair enough. It wasn’t mentioned on the bulletin just before Laura K was on. I switched to Sky news after that.

BBC News this morning reported the “Huge military parade” in Washington DC, then absolutely zero on the millions peacefully protesting across the US. I give up with them.

Unfollowed.

why?

One of life’s great mysteries.

If Pope Leo had been born 2 days later he’d have been called Pope Virgo.

Christopher Walken is in this episode! Looking like Ian Brown.
#Kojak

Just found on ITVx they have a bunch of old Kojak episodes, so that’s me sorted for a few weeks.
Hector Salamanca from Better Call Saul is a baddie in this one..

Energy saving tip for UK anti-fash. Every time that bloviating twat f@rage or one of his henchmen/women appears on your telly, turn it off. I seem to be saving loads on the leccy atm.
