Anyone in Southampton got a spare g-string*? Joel’s broke and he can’t find his spares. *no matter how old I get, G-string jokes will never not be funny.

“There are many Harrisons, but this one is mine!” Thanks One for the Road! (And York) that was a wonderful weekend. Lots of love to @harrisonrimmer.bsky.social Ttfn Aubs x P.s i forgot to take photos, so if anyone has a pic of me onstage or in my new stage gear I would love to see it.

From 1264 to 1827, anyone who received a Master of Arts degree from Oxford had to swear that they would never forgive Henry Symeonis. By 1608, no one knew who he was or what he had done.

TOUUUUUUUR

It’s been a wonderful 14 years. Honestly I still don’t quite believe it that it’s over. As I said last night, there are too many too thank. So, I plan to try and get round to you all in person…….eventually. Like a drunken shouty Santa.

#trainselfie with my new Beano thermos (that is RUBBISH at keeping things warm, but i love it anyway) What I’m listening to @kermodemovie.bsky.social ‘s Surround sound And where I am heading to.

Anyone coming to Brum for my gig? #BirminghamGigs #LiveMusic

IT'S NEARLY TIME! ! #sweetmemories #aubreyblakeledge #festivallife #musicmoments #goodbyecelebration #sweetchunks #festival #thereforthemusic

Do I know anyone in Birmingham with crash space i can use on Friday?

Huge thank you to Aubrey for inviting me down to play. Fantastic work comparing and during their set as always! Massive thank you to those that came out to the show and were in massive voice! If only I could play in Southampton again next week. Oh wait… I’m not ready. No one is ready. Sydes x

Aubrey and I also joined Thomas for his encore of “Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life”, where I messed up the words, which is almost amusing for reasons I won’t go into here! Aubrey addressed me as “the David Attenborough of folk punk” or words to such effect! That’ll be on future posters then!

An absolute joy of a show last night at Aubrey Blakeledge’s Awkward Strawberry night at The Hobbit Pub! It was a pleasure to meet, hang out with and witness Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq.! Massive thank you to those that came out to the show and were in massive voice!

ONE WEEK LEFT! #sweetmemories #aubreyblakeledge #festivallife #musicmoments #goodbyecelebration #sweetchunks #festival #thereforthemusic

I’M NOT MAD, IM JUST LISTENING TO MY NEW HAZBIN HOTEL RECORD WITH MY PLANT FRIENS! Meet Sanza Bark and Heather Lebonham Carter.

Its an odd moment when the festival tent goes away for the winter. There are still festivals yet to play this year, but summer is definitely over.

THIS WEEK! IS AWKWARD STRAWBERRY WEEK! This week marks the quirky celebration of Strawberry Week! 🍓 Join in the fun and embrace the delightful awkwardness of these charming berries. #StrawberryWeek #BerryFun

Reminder that 100,000 people marched for Trans Pride in London earlier this year, but because they weren't violent fascists, there was minimal press coverage, unlike the Nazis today. https://www.them.us/story/london-trans-pride-march-turnout-record-uk-transphobia

After a lovely ride through the Somerset hills to Taunton. I am now on a bus ride to Glastonbury for Night at the Abbey

Im working on something very silly… New mysic vid coming soon.

One week Until the Final AWKWARD Strawberry of 2026! 🍓#Countdown #Excitement

Are you ready for the ultimate Awkward Strawberry Spectacle of 2025? Don't miss out on this exciting event! #AwkwardStrawberry #2025Event

Time to Say Farewell in Style!! #sweetchunks #aubreyblakeledge #festival #thereforthemusic

This Week, I am Going Down, Down, Down to Goblin Town! #AubreyBlakeledge #goblintown

Can you create a 1-minute video for my new music video? #MusicPromotion #ArtisticVision #AubreyBlakeledge #woodlandgothic #vexilophelia

This is something I was unaware of, but is a cruel example of this EHRC guidance being written by idiots. People who have a gender recognition certificate (i don’t qualify as a gf/non binary person) have to make a legal declaration that they will live as their new gender/sex until death.

I want to explain a few things and then it might be clearer why UK trans people are upset. In 2001 I married my wife, Sylvia. In 2005 I started medical transition. (1/13)

Holy shit, things are getting real.. im booking a rehearsal room for my new set.

Fancy a drinky poo in Bristol? #aubreyblakeledge #liveinbristol #bristolmusic #bristol #sweetchunks #ExploreBristol #Cheers
