Phoenix Phil Morley

This Friday I'll be performing 'Data and Doctor Doom' at The Fox & Newt in Leeds, presented by @letsgobaboon.bsky.social - It's a one-man musical adaptation of my PhD thesis, featuring songs, jokes, and rigorous empirical analysis - sometimes all at once, like this!

The Bugle with Frankie Moloney Your host Frankie brings one of the years four extended seasonal mixes to ease you in to the new part of the year.

Stealing Deep Purple The unbelievable true story of the Fake Deep Purple tour

Hello folks. Looking for #christmaspresentideas?
My book Stealing Deep Purple ideal for the 70s rock fan in your life! Know anyone who likes WTF! stories that include lies, betrayal, riots and group of musicians pretending to be two bands on the same bill on the same night?

I was surprised by how good this and Bill Ritchie's other strip was in this issue of The Beezer. Find out why in the episode!

Earwormed myself with this like there was a gap in my broadcast schedule in the early 80s

No. No chatting, no whispering, no showing people stuff on your phone and get there on time for the trailers, I don’t want to see you fussing about trying to work what seats you have before a movie.

Yet also:

More people need to react to stuff in the film. So many joyless tough crowds these days.

Ha ha yeah the only old one I know is The Days of The Phoenix which was played a bunch on M(tv)2 during the Forgotten Times. Indeed the chorus was “whoa-oh-ohhhh-oh” 🤣 Shocked to discover it’s the same line up. Thought it’d be Marillion-esque different front man / different era situation.

Loving the new AFI album. Wouldn’t have stumbled upon it anywhere other than Bugle. Many thanks 🙏

I’ve been attempting to push my books towards reviewers all year without success. However just when I presumed that my books just weren’t what social media were looking for this happened.

Proof that an author’s readers are out there, it’s just sometimes takes time to find them.

RIP ACE FREHLEY of KISS

So many killer (and influential) guitar solos with KISS & his NY cool vocals added a unique vibe to the band. His 1978 solo album is one of the best to feature the band’s logo, if you’ve never heard it before it’s well worth 36 minutes of your time

Lovely Dark Corner in this episode!

go get a load of the latest radio show xx

Totally agree, I really enjoyed it and I’m not usually into the Daniel Craig Bond stuff.

OK, hear me out — a Lord of the Rings remake, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor

wow. Am only really familiar with Walker’s first 4 albums.

It’s a fun premise but everyone involved was too comfy as a celeb at that point and the effort or drive needed to make it work just isn’t there. There’s none of the nuance or minutiae that made the other Pegg/Wright stuff so watchable. It felt like they no longer knew the price of a pint of milk.

No new pictures; where are you mentally?

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT! It’s the ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY of the 5 STAR RATED & Goodreads’ 7th best book about #Britpop 🧛BITE BACK❗️🧛‍♀️

Yeah it was great fun. Also chuffed for my youngest son as he’s the huge Godzilla fan in the house and this was one of the few he’s not managed to see.

Godzilla’s big face from the U.K. premier of The Return of Godzilla at the Barbican

View from front row seats at the UK theatrical premier of The Return of Godzilla (thirty one years after it was released in Japan).

Had front row seats last night for the UK theatrical premier of The Return of Godzilla (thirty one years after it was released in Japan). #Godzilla

Happy 28th birthday to Be Here Now! Here’s what the tracklisting should have been to make it feel a bit breezier (in my opinion). #Oasis

Country House. Oddly derided and slightly forgotten these days but an expertly crafted Kinksy character piece of song with a considered arrangement and instant classic chorus. They were of course starting to fall into self parody but I feel it’s still classic blur here.

its been a busy summer at Bugle Towers. new show coming august 18th - in the meantime the summer bangers show will keep ya in a good groove

Have you seen 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' yet? Good, wasn't it? Anyway, completely unrelated to that, here's some information about who Doctor Doom is, just in case you wanted to know.

Breaking a single season, that is coming THREE YEARS after the previous season, into three parts, is just taking the piss.

NOW THIS IS SUMMER! The suns out, & just had a lovely family visit to the cinema to see the new #Superman film which was a much needed shot of humanity & optimism in a world being pushed towards darkness. Feeling good, like my soul’s had a shower. Hope you’re feeling sunny side up too. 🍳😎
