“I’m with stupid”

Was reminded of this incendiary track I heard on Iggy Pop’s radio show some time back. A fresh start to the day youtu.be/RFKzjOk4PFk?...

First book finished in 2026 Reasonable yarn of isolation, innocence and desperation. Got more gripping as it headed to its denouement

I’m loving this Bob Marley/Peter Tosh classic given a funky rework in 1976 Found it on a Mystic Brew comp lp youtu.be/E19oxFa5EOo?...

Post a pic of the venue where you saw your first concert and band/artist Guildford - TRB 1979(?)

Feeling under the weather still so instead of walking up a snowy Beinn Dorain I’m on the sofa eating Christmas cake and listening to old tunes #NowPlaying Shakespeare’s Sister - Black Sky (dub extravaganza) youtu.be/nHT-wy2Uudw?...

I don’t think we should have ceded control quite so quickly and without so much as a fight.

Want entertained in Edinburgh on a Friday night? Then head along to Fruitmarket gallery on 23rd Jan for a top music noise event run by self-proclaimed steam age galoots

Had work meeting with a bloke wearing a sweatshirt with logo across his chest: ‘Hot girls look after their mental health’

Pubs closing in the afternoon. The horror of being turfed out at 2:30pm on a Sunday knowing you had up to 3 hours before you could get another pint to keep the weekend going…

I have 2 tickets to see #MikeOldfield at the #UsherHall in #Edinburgh next month, 10 Feb, and unfortunately am not well enough to travel. Posting in hope the right person sees this and they won't go to waste.

Sharing just for the silliness of a tune titled ‘Your Gold, Mr Bridger’ The album is actually a breath of fresh retro air

A mini music festival in Edinburgh this weekend might be just what we need to lift our spirits. Get along if you can

Rats On Rafts were great when I saw them last year. New single is worth a listen youtube.com/watch?v=Hq3I...

Men drinking pints of beer on their own in the pub are often decent people

Decided to cut a piece of plastic with a Stanley knife while resting the plastic on my leg as I squatted. Needless to say the knife slipped, cut through my trousers and left me with an inch long scar🤦‍♂️

A rare excuse to big up Glasgow’s excellent Wine Moms youtu.be/33MT2Atp3pU?...

Starting the new year at work with a change of style and a fresh attitude…
