Lost then Found 💙

I remember Simon had pleurisy so was replaced by Roberto Soave and they were also late on stage because their bus got caught in traffic somewhere.

Hopefully they’ll each do their own shows in the UK.

I was very much down a Snub TV rabbit hole on YouTube the other day, kicked off with the discovery that the first Breeders album was recorded in a suburban house in Edinburgh, where a performance was filmed and broadcast on Snub TV.

First decent charity shop haul in absolutely ages, and just in time for #WeekendSingles.
