Post a pic of the venue where you saw your first concert and the band or artist. The Alarm, Glasgow Barrowlands, 4th May 1985. I went with a bunch of scheme kids, we were all about 14-15 yrs old, and we all got the train in from Lanarkshire, drinking booze we had nicked from our houses. Mayhem.

He made a dub remix album?... Someone should write a book or make a film about Bill Callahan, I find him endlessly interesting

Nice start to the day... I'm not much into the reunion of old bands but I'm glad to see these oldies looking like they are enjoying it... I thought/think about The Beta Band a lot when I first started making music again in lockdown; very inspirational ❤️ youtu.be/VFfouWrR6lY?...

Good stuff 👇

I had asked my mum over xmas dinner about the painting her & my dad got from scottish outsider artist Enrico Cocozza for a wedding present in 1967 (see pic of my mum showing the presents) & she had found it under her bed a few days before!... I vividly remember staring at it lots as I was growing up

sure that's the way it was back then, so it was* *I posted this in a northern irish accent

Rebecca Liu is such a great writer, really enjoyed her thoughts on this year’s films: artreview.com/dialogue-is-...

On the old laptop i found a folder called '#USETHIS' - it contained 2 audio files of distorted guitar recorded by me some years previously I did use it (and a drum loop) and I've been looping it for about 10minutes now...

Creeping Bent (12.12.1994-12.12.2025) discontinues live operations in Glasgow tonight at Mono. Here’s a kool article by Neil Cooper from his wonderful The Noise of Art site on Substack. Image: A Leap Into The Void/BENT001 Tramway, Glasgow, 12.12.1994. neilcooper.substack.com/p/creeping-b...

Great little interview from Douglas - what an achievement. I bought The Leopards 'Cutting A Short Dog' 7" in the 90s (still an amazing single) and am lucky enough to have had some support from Douglas at the start of my Black Hill Transmissions project - he even suggested the name 😊 what a guy 🧨🧨🧨

Looks quite fun... youtu.be/LJraZRHhFwQ?...

I was obsessed by this still from Enrico Cocozza's film 'The Silver Trumpet'... I used it in a few things later, but this is where I used it first, as the cover image for my Shangri Las/Sonic Youth/ New York cut-up/mixtape 'Shadows Too' kobraaudiolabs.bandcamp.com/track/shadow...

Over the last 2 years I became obsessed by 'Versions'... and I keep finding others on this old laptop The original 'Hannah Hoch Sez' was a good beat with just cut-up stuff strewn around it Then it became this 'Version' with my pals Gavin & Raymond involved. Vid by me. youtu.be/Z_39002UWIM?...

A lovely thread here…

Whenever I hear Beatles songs, like when I'm watching 'Anthology' for example, I always expect them to be delivered in the manner, and order, that they appear in this, my first exposure to 'The Beatles'... youtu.be/dcAeKA86p4o?... I'm always a bit shocked when I hear the whole songs on their own

Saul Leiter. Early Black & White. Late 1940s-50s.

I'm secretly hoping they were involved but got away with it.

Really enjoyed this episode of '500 Songs' talking about 'Ticket To Ride', but going back to 'I Feel Fine' too... I'm also watching the remastered 'Anthology' episode also dealing with this time period. Great stuff. 500songs.com/podcast/epis...

Spent a morning wandering round an abandoned housing scheme in Lanarkshire being filmed by my pal Stuart Hobbs The track started off as a kinda 'Twin Peaks' tribute before eventually mutating into a dubby western theme before finding its final form in the 'Versions' EP... youtu.be/-1D6-kke7eQ?...
