Great golf to be had at Nairn Dunbar GC. I'm loving being a member! Broke 80 for first time today (at ND).

I'm in the North Of Scotland in an air b'n'b on my own trying not to just watch football and drink beer. So I'm keeping busy - open.substack.com/pub/lloydcol...

Sunshine on Nairn, at last!

Cross yourself, put on your things, and check out this week’s “Great Moments in Music”, featuring @lloydcole.bsky.social and the Commotions: newsletter.waitdidyouhearthat.com/p/great-mome...

I wrote a little more on Bowie in the 70's (Bowie's 70's actually ended in 1980). open.substack.com/pub/lloydcol...

What a fabulous links Fortrose & Rosemarkie is! Cannot wait to return.

Did William give #WendySuperstar a bath?

“I’m right over here, why can’t you see me?” is never not heartbreaking. It’s as perfect as pop music gets. AGREE. ALL HAIL ROBYN! www.theguardian.com/music/2026/j...

9:30 PM in Nairn. I could still be golfing (if was a little younger).

My new home from home. Nairn Dunbar Golf Club. I'm very happy.

Fabulous audience at Le Bikini tonight. I don't think they, or I, had much energy before I took to the stage. It was SO HOT. Oh, my. But somehow we got the job done. I'm sure I would have wilted, without the support/encouragement. Merci, Toulouse.

The final show of my (accidental) HEATWAVE tour is tonight in Toulouse at Le Bikini, one of my favourite venues in the whole world. Hervé and his team are the most lovely, welcoming people. Family are asking for more Le Bikini hoodies! I'm SOLO ELECTRIC, details, as always at www.lloydcole.com/live/

❤️ RIP Chris Wilson ... lovely bloke and great bass player.

The morning routine challenge resumes in Toulouse.

Hotel is lovely in Landerneau, but not much room for the morning routine 😂

It was awfully hot when we arrived in Landerneau, but it was cool enough to walk out for dinner. Hopefully cool enough for the locals to walk out tomorrow night for my show. Tickets links, etc, for ALL shows can always be found here - www.lloydcole.com/live/

I have a couple of days off in Honfleur because this heat wave in France has meant that my Nantes show, scheduled for tomorrow (June 22nd) has been cancelled. We'll drive to Landernau on the 23rd. All shows and ticket links here - www.lloydcole.com/live/

Beyond hilarious. Who exactly started the the idea that Trump could beat a clueless Dem? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Back in the day when the NME gave you a free record @lloydcole.bsky.social

How different things could have been if Mercury and Visconti had realised that they already had the single they thought they needed. No need for Holy Holy - re-record this as a 45 www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3MX...

2 parts English Breakfast, 1 part Earl Grey 👌

I wrote a little something about Bowie in the 1970's for my Substack people. By no means definitive, just my thoughts most of a lifetime later. open.substack.com/pub/lloydcol...

More synth fun for my Substack people. vimeo.com/1198546380/3...

Another perfect New England morning, another 26 miles #lloydscyclingadventure www.strava.com/activities/1...

So smart by Tuchel. Diva will now play nice in training with his#10 & then Rogers will play - www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Finally it's not raining. Another 15 miles. #lloydscyclingadventure www.strava.com/activities/1...

Fuck Off, Tony. Also, IM(not so)HO, you're wrong. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Nice to be pleasantly surprised. Sounds like Macca is embracing his old voice and that's a good thing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2n1I...

This Villa team were too good to be in Europa League. theguardian.com/football/202... If they don't contend for Premier League next season something is up... they don't need a massive influx of players, maybe a few tweaks. This squad is strong. Well played, BTW 💪 #EuropaLeague

Back in the saddle. Another 22 miles. #lloydscyclingadventure www.strava.com/activities/1...

💛Dandelion time… on a warm blustery day in the Scottish Highlands #UkWeather #wildflowers #Scotland

Huge thanks to Adam at The Alberta Rose Theatre in Portland, OR for helping me set up my 2026 West Coast Tour. I'm very happy to announce that I'll be returning to The Alberta Rose on October 13th with my SOLO ELECTRIC show. Let's sell it out!

We all know Jagger invented David Johansen, and of course David went on to become SO MUCH MORE than a Mick clone. But I never knew the invention had a specific moment, until today.

With the new album imminent, this showed up in the sidebar. Possibly the only Grauniad list I've ever agreed with. www.theguardian.com/music/2018/m...

I'll be in Seattle at The Triple Door, Seattle, on October 9th with my SOLO ELECTRIC show. Very much looking forward. This will (probably) be the final song of the second set. I'm Gone. vimeo.com/1169024987?s...

Very much looking forward to returning to The Chapel with my SOLO ELECTRIC show on October 7th. More West Coast shows to be announced this week. Watch this space.

Why did I keep trying to 'get Joni? Probably because Prince loved her. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zf59...
