October was pretty aces for books that I managed to read - although i did have life so a little less pages than some months #booksky

The Marian Conspiracy by Graham Phillips #booksky #currentlyreading #nowreading

53rd gig of the year, Todd Rundgren & Boo Hewerdine in Birmingham. Decent gig from Todd & band, for me the sound wasn’t the best & that impacted on things a bit, however still really good stuff . Obvs only a few of his bangers played. Boo used his 20 mins to good effect.

52nd gig of the year, NewDad & Cardinals in Birmingham. Entertaining gig by altpoprockers* NewDad, back in Birmingham to tour their latest, & decent, new record Altar. Great fun. Decent support from Cardinals who make a nice racket as well 🔥🔥🔥 * I don’t really get musical genres. It’s just music

51st gig of the year, The Last Dinner Party in Coventry. A showcase for the nearly released album, From the Pyre - they played it in full. Such a great band, they bring a bit of everything & it probably should be a bit of a mess but they are so good, everything they try works 🔥🔥🔥 great show

50th gig of the year, Day 3 of SWN festival in Cardiff. Great day, we saw Marsy, The Sick Man of Europe, Naima Bock, Morn, Opal Mag, Midding & Lime Garden. Everyone was super good, photos of our faves. We also had some amazing chocolate orange brownie. Such a great festival.

I've been having a lot of fun at #swnfest but a strange highlight was this incredible lady recording video of Casual Smart in the Jacob's Antiques basement on a Nintendo DS. #music #gig #swn #cardiff

49th gig of the year, Day 2 of SWN festival in Cardiff. Great day, we saw Silver Gore, Prima Queen, British Birds, Ynys, Slate, Whitelands & TTSSFU. All great, faves in the photos. Also had chicken curry, breakfast burrito & a hot chocolate

48th gig of the year, Day 1 of SWN festival in Cardiff. Great evening, we saw AKA, Brown Horse, Pale Blue Eyes & Moonchild Sanelly. Also had a very nice pizza, some cake and did some light DIY.

47th gig of the year, 14 Iced Bears & @perennialtheband.bsky.social in Coventry. Another great @joesors.bsky.social / @justdroppedin.bsky.social double header. Great to finally get to see 14 Iced Bears (I think) and Perennial were super fun, go see them if you can.

46th gig of the year, The Cords & Josie in Coventry. The Cords make a triumphant return to @justdroppedin.bsky.social in a great @joesors.bsky.social double header. So much fun & great to see such a wide range of ages in the audience. Young & old, Coventry loves The Cords. Josie also really ace

Kudos to JDI, Joe & everyone else putting on gigs in Coventry at the moment. Inclusive, accessible and some mighty fine music. It’s near impossible to keep up / catch everything. So so good 🔥🔥🔥🔥

45th gig of the year, The Beths & Dateline in Birmingham. Brilliant double header this one, I’ve seen The Beths a few times (I think) at festivals but wasn’t really prepared for how good a full show is & how enthusiastic their fans are! Dateline were pretty new to me but so good- new fave band 🔥🔥🔥

42nd gig of the year, The New Eves & Radio Anorak in Birmingham. 1st date of the tour & you really should try & catch it. TNE keep getting better, new song debuted was a highlight. RA also really good, bit more “beefy” live than on the excellent “Remember” album. Great encore with both bands 🔥🔥🔥
