Tours begin, tours end... Some go on so long the end turns seamlessly into the beginning of the next. 2025 ends here for The Invisible Band. If you were there you were probably marvellous. Now be a poppet would you and tell the world what you saw… #LukeMorley #TheQuireboys #CatsInSpace #LiveMusic

I'll let the handsome man below do the talking. But sooner or later he'll garble something or other about "ticket links" to Luke Morley September shows, so here they are: www.williedowling.com/shows/ #LukeMorley #SiânBluGreenaway

Tariffs! The cure for everything & the single greatest means to MAGA. Tariffs on goods made by filthy foreigners & on filthy foreign films. Tariffs on odd socks & UFO’s. Tariffs on worms that look at you in a funny way. Tariffs on oceans, leaves & non-Christians. Tell me, is the USA great yet?

I reckon you'd really enjoy the Chesham gig on May 24th. But Southend on the 25th is not without it's charms? And Newcastle on the 30th if you want to hear my best Geordie accent... tickets.cheshamfringe.com/tickets/will... chinnerys.seetickets.com/.../chinnery... thecluny.com/.../a-specia...

Farage’s BREXIT bullshit crashed the UK. He persistently lied & persuaded people to vote leave with his simple Trump-like rhetoric. And now he sees himself as the UK’s saviour with ‘Reform’? Why would anyone trust this f**kwit again? Watch #YearsAndYears on BBCiplayer www.lbc.co.uk/news/uk/the-...

Over several decades the US & UK have ended domestic manufacturing, chose privatisation & cheap labour overseas, hollowed out the middle class, enriched the ultra-wealthy, created an impoverished underclass & utterly failed to invest in people & infrastructure. The US & UK have destroyed themselves

As we fall deeper into a Trump-created dystopia, I thought I’d have a go at solving the crisis by headlining a show at The Red Lion in Chesham on Saturday 24th of May as part of the Chesham Fringe Festival. Sadly Trump can't come. He's playing golf again tickets.cheshamfringe.com/tickets/will...

Once more unto the breach dear friends... Get your tickets now in readiness for the month of September when I'll be back on the island that broke up and drifted, supporting Luke Morley on a jaunt through the some of the finest venues the UK has to offer www.lukemorleyonline.com/gigs

It's Bandcamp Friday when most proceeds from music/merch sales go directly to artists. There are 2 new T-shirts as well as The Simpleton on CD or dig download. williedowlingmusic.bandcamp.com Thanks to all who came to see us on tour. New tour dates soon! #bandcamp #bandcampfriday #bandcampday

Bankers get their biggest payouts since 2014 The c**ts who run the corrupt financial system that crashed the world, which eventually lead us to Trump etc - are doing just great! Meanwhile, pensioners freeze, #NHS crumbles, 15m in poverty etc And STILL Keir Starmer won’t #TaxTheRich #WealthTax

Keir Starmer didn't "play a blinder" at all yesterday, he was played. Trump wants a weak Europe & is betting on the the UK being so desperate for a trade deal it will accept all his demands. He played with Starmer but revealed his hand today. Starmer must break from this ignorant fascist.

Torturing Doctors so they can't use their hands is typical of Israel's strategies. They wouldn't bomb hospitals - but destroyed them all. They moved people to "safe areas" - then bombed them Banned world's press to hide their crimes. Now, they plan to annex with fascist Trump's help.

TRUTH BOMB! Some are calling our Feb tour the greatest, most thought-provoking and insightful tour in history. And many are saying that more people attended these shows than those of any other artist. Profound thanks to all who came along. I'll be back soon with news of plans to purchase Scunthorpe.

And so we're winding down to the last few gigs of this tour. Tonight (Feb 14th) is our Valentine's show at The 100 Club with the fabulous The Ondines and David Woodcock in support.

What a tour! What a treat! What propaganda! And it's not finished yet! And I'm running out of exclamation marks!

When I was a boy, Newcastle on a Monday night was a quiet city encouraging silent contemplation. When Vespers were finished, all would sleep peacefully from 7pm until Matins at 4.30 am. A gentle place of contented folk.

Willie Dowling (@williedowling.bsky.social) Presents The Simpleton UK Headline Tour Coming to the Newcastle Cluny next week on February 10th @jowheretogo.bsky.social Preview: jowheretogo.co.uk/f/willie-dow...

Well Wolverhampton was a blast for myself Andy Lewis and Darby Todd and our special guest (and charity prize winner) Givvi Flynn Tomorrow afternoon (Sunday) in Venue23 Wakefield it promises to be equally as blasty, if not blastier still! Best yet, tomorrow is a FREE gig.

Nothing to see here! FAKE NEWS! Elon hires only the best and is not racist, fascist or any other major "ist". He just employs racists/fascists to let them illegally & unconstitutionally steal data of all US citizens. And of course the 'Musk' purges will follow soon. That all seems reasonable enough?

Are you watching MAGA loons? This is what the corrupt, rapist sociopath is doing with the power you gave him. There's NOTHING in this fascist presidency for you at all. It's all for him and his billionaire friends. Your suffering is only just beginning

Open fascism. This is what the US voted for. Trump validates ethnic cleansing. He promised to end US wars but risks the big one. His son in law saw property opportunities in Gaza last Trump presidency. Now, he’s seizing Gaza. Presumably for Trump hotels, golf courses, oil & gas

To those in the US opposed to Trump’s fascist administration. It’s no good trying to use legal channels to stop this onslaught. They ignore your constitution & are destroying its legitimacy & authority. You HAVE to bring them down the way all tyrannical government is brought down

I asked AI to show me a picture of those who currently represent the greatest threat to the planet… Or did I ask for a picture of fascist liars? Or was it a picture of the most self-interested sociopaths on the planet? These three must be brought down before it’s too late.

I don't care what they say... Things are demonstrably better when they pulsate. Tempt you to a ticket? williedowling.com/shows/ Both Andy Lewis and Darby Todd will be pulsating furiously. I'm told I'm too emotionally stunted and repressed to even throb gently

Why is this man such a hypocritical dick? Almost every decision he makes could’ve been made by Tories. He could save £billions if he’d #RejoinEU. He could bring in £billions with a #WealthTax. Instead he punishes the poor & feeds the wealthy. Now it’s a new oilfield? He’s clearly a true blue Tory

No doubt Keir Starmer will call it “pragmatic politics” But there’s a line which once crossed, is a serious indictment of character & stains you forever Starmer chose to back Israeli genocide And by looking to deal with Trump, he stands alongside Chamberlain as an appeaser of tyrannical fascism

Could #Starmer be more out of touch? He sh*ts on pensioners/families with 2 kids & lets privatised utilities milk the UK. He funds Israeli savagery & takes bribes. And he wants a deal with fascist Trump but won’t even discuss #RejoinEU which most in the UK want. He's clearly a 5th columnist Tory!

You can tell a lot about a person by from the friends they choose @Keir_Starmer has chosen to side with fascist Netanyahu and fascist-sociopath Trump Starmer could save the UK £billions and solve so much pain if he’d #RejoinEU But he’d sooner appease & support fascists

We've been together ever since, having formed a successful body building business, and a chain of hipster restaurants. Come see us play with each other (in a good way) next week. Ticket links to all the shows here: williedowling.com/shows

LAST REHEARSALS: We first met when all three of us unsuccessfully auditioned for Boyzone. They said it was our poor dancing skills but I suspect it was more that our individual sex appeal clearly outshone that of Ronan Keating

"Friday's Child is loving and gigging" I mean it's a staggeringly poor misquotation but I'm running out of ideas to ear your pricks up - and there's another one! So before you foolishly fritter away this months wages on household necessities, treat yourself to a night of guaranteed joy!

"I'm coming hoooo-me....Newcastle" Thanks to Adam Kennedy for the below piece in @thenorthernecho.bsky.social. Now who is coming to The Cluny 2 on Feb 10th? Ticket links below with supports from Breakaway NE and Charlotte Ash www.ticketweb.uk/event/willie...

Well the below brag didn't age well for Trump did it? And just as with the LA fires, rather than sympathy for victims, Trump's instinct is to lash out and blame the pilot or air traffic control. He is NO leader. He is a moronic sociopath that needs immediate removal from office.

"First they came for the socialists and I did not speak out..." Well you know the rest of it because it's been said so many times. Now it's actually happening in the USA. If there were any doubt before, wake up now! Trump is a fascist. All opposition to Trump in the USA must unite & bring him down.

For our political representatives, who should look after the electorate & the environment, but instead make policy for lobbyists, private and corporate donors along with global businesses. We’re lead by self-interested, corrupt politicians who climb aboard 'The Gravy Train' youtu.be/6fB873WGg7A?...

So presumably we can now expect the far right to march on Scotland attacking white people, accusing all Scots of being pedophiles & demanding that they be exiled from the UK? Robinson & Musk are probably putting together a plan now… Or is it only child abuse by non-whites that upsets them?

Just like the Tories @UKLabour attack those on benefits, the elderly & kids rather than go after wealthy crooks. And by allowing billionaires to pile more money up while most of the UK suffers, Labour bring about their own demise & an end to trust in democracy. WEALTH TAX THE RICH!

See! All you doubters! @Keir_Starmer is a BIG boy now & the supreme leader has let it be known that he is most pleased with Keir. And when Trump invades Greenland, Panama or Canada, good old Keir will send UK assistance, unquestioningly obeying his fascist overlords in Israel & the USA as per usual

The world is turned upside down We regularly condemn oppression in China but finance Netanyahu’s genocide Western leaders readily attack Putin’s land grab, but the maniacal authoritarian rantings of a compulsive liar & rapist silences them We know how this will end if he’s not stopped, right?

Wealth of UK billionaires rose by £35m per day in 2024. But still the morons blame immigrants, the EU, China or Russia etc for higher bills & failing public services. There’s sh*t loads of money in the UK & world. But it all goes into the pockets of the wealthy. #WealthTax Now!
