can someone tell me why facebook has removed the option to search for older posts you made? actually, don't. the site is routinely a headache as it goes anyway

aside from actually Djing this saturday, my "other side of the brain" Nurses With Knives returns to familiar folds to bring my friends over HBI another audio visual set. This was to coincide with the new compliation release, but more so it is a gentle hello to the people who enjoyed the project

today i've got to go up in the loft and sort out my records for this week's dj set. already mixing yello with the stooges. time'll tell.

Someone sent Florence this 😂 She messages me to say that apparently her nephew was a backing drummer for one of my poems during a open mic two weeks ago.

How to create your rapture day experience, as it is today -buy blow up dolls -cloth them - fill them full of helium -release into the wild -spout some religious spit while doing so The end.

Ron exemplies a lot of my energy this last weekend. also Katie Puckrick is divine. www.youtube.com/watch?v=877k...

Why not celebrate @jennymclaren.bsky.social's birthday by watching the latest Spray Synthpop Masterclass podcast on Spotify! open.spotify.com/episode/0cvy...

back djing this weekend, after the bands down at the puzzle this saturday

😂

Strong book art vibes here

"Where did your interest in stunning ladies who look elegant smoking start?" just here. Happy birthday to the late French actress Anna Karina today.

A couple of years ago i befriended a lass called Florence in my area who turned out to be this guy's daughter. She just randomly dropped it into a conversation one day. She was very coy about it i must say, as she told me her dad "wrote a book on robots" and knew the poet John Hegley.

a very satisfying experience of seeing my friends, my mam and aunt and here the band mate Ricardo with miss Actionist Kirsty in the audience yesterday.

Looking forward to walking the woods today after what has been a very busy last 4 days. Back at work tomorrow, so for today i'm just decompressing :)

finally back home. i shot this video 5 years ago today on the love of dear Halifornia www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vak...

Also I had captions today.

My cohort @ricardoautobahn.co.uk finally met actionists mam tonight. 🙏

Good gig. Almost done with a final talk this afternoon and then homeward bound!

Today I offer a reminder of the word ‘forswunk’ (13th century): exhausted from too much work. To be ‘foreswunk’ (my own version) is to be exhausted before you even begin.

Totally having this.

Staring at a blank screen as the TV in my room isnt working. Here's today's final dress for the stage of dreams though

Anyways, bed i think. Happy birthday to Nick Toczek x

Its rained all day. Dont worry about the reservoirs and half of the towns that flood. They've likely been submerged.

Today's radio 4 show was a blast. Very enthusiastic host and for a change, my panel was mostly made of women of different style and origin. You could say I was the wildcard of the event. Back on the stage tomorrow for one last gun down. Im coming in a suit so watch them eyes pop!

Just had a wide eyed fella obviously on something try rap at me on the street. Yesterday it was a man asking for money for bandages. Am I a weirdo magnet for these types? Clear off fam.

As im not here to make enemies this weekend, I strongly disagreed with a poet who told me there isnt such thing as imposter syndrome (i had a case of it on the 1st night) Not everyone carries their brass band around with them blowing horns of confidence. Aside from that, everyone else is lovely.

Sat in my room at 9.50 and little house on the prairie is on. My mother used to watch this show every Sunday without fail. It acts a gentle push before I head out today

On at 2.30 today on BBC 4 www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Getting old this year: 3 times ive woke up disoriented this year and thought "where am I?" In different places and then realising where i am and dropping back off. Is this a thing to look forward to in the next few years?

Sat in the spoons in Bradford and on the next table is a group of Sikh gentlemen having a good laugh. A mate said to me yesterday "dont go to spoons, its a tory dump" but when you see sights like this its a heartwarming experience, especially in such a place. Today has been good. on BBC 4 tomorrow

Your new viral slogan Paint canvases Not roundabouts

Clock the fame game.

I got a follow on instagram from the delightful Joanne Wallace ala miss upsetter. She makes some great badges my coats are often seen with.

Sat in the posh spoons having a red bull and that old penny arcade tune is paying. Fuck me, what a life.

Been to Bradford waterstones. Very swish.

Lot of imposter syndrome on the first day my friends. Ive a talk on music and lyrics tomorrow and they saying 2 minutes a piece. Got you covered. Til then, a hotel room and my pint game is heavy.

Just heard "you can call me al" this song reminds me of some memories or been in Bradford, having a month long relationship with a lass just across the road from my hotel for the weekend is, with the prick at the car sales place playing that shit at 6am in the morning on a Sunday.

This energy already makes me want to have a pint. What day is it? Thursday? Bout that time then.

I now have the infinity glove

Currently at the green room for the gig. Photos of all performers but none of me. This'll suffice.

TIL i learned what it means. Every day is a school day. doubt i'll use that abbreviation though.

power up youtu.be/fXLwVK6-XsQ?...

I literally loved lily during this phase of music career. the big dress/trainers combo gave me the old starry eyes. add to the fact she was sampling old ska cuts too on this album (this single sampled "reggae merengue" by Tommy mccook) it didn't whiff of latent neopotism

Johnny is in America Loteks at the wheel

my jokes about boiled eggs in bomber jackets are becoming more real every day @ricardoautobahn.co.uk

the case of random likes i get are weird on here. one is from a Japanese mascot akin to the UK's very Mr Blobby. any anyone else get such a unique touch for the complete nonsense they sometimes drop on here? that said i liked this clip they posted www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6Th...

there's always been that part of my writing accused of punching down on people. The thing is unlike my man here, I lived it in the 90s and still hold a lot of disdain for big cities and the smug pretentious types they breed. Here's one.

there's a new Sleaford Mods tune. not worth my ears, but likely sounds like the last few albums. you want a good dynamic duo with coherent lyrics? got it covered. as of tomorrow, i will be doing a talk on music and poetry, here's been my most financially economical experience this last year

bradford for the lit fest today. exciting times. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfL4...
