Show Me The Body, Six Feet Under and Napalm Death. Bit of theme at the 2026 Abyss festival. Think I’ll give it a miss.

Just going to hit the pause button and slow down.

@cerysmatthews.bsky.social Would be great to hear Jimmy Regal & The Royals on the blues show. Please thank the guys for two great SOLD OUT gigs with us at Claypath, Durham & The Georgian Theatre, Stockton the weekend just gone - It’s all good. Thanks as always for your support.

New gig announcement wegottickets.com/event/659806

Nice to see. Album of the month in @thecrackmagazine.bsky.social - Staithe. #altfolk #skymusic

Public Service Announcement - for those who may be interested. This has just turned up on YooToobe. Nick Drake 'Bryter Layer' sessions. All in excellent quality and as far as I can make out none of this has ever appeared on bootleg album. Haven't checked though.

Finishing the day out with one of the most hauntingly beautiful folk records you’ll ever hear! #NowSpinning “Pink Moon” (1972) by Nick Drake.

Next DBTR gig with available tickets is The Too Bad Jims @central-bar.bsky.social in The Railway Quarter. All aboard for some ‘High-Octane North Mississippi Blues’

I know they didn't go to the moon but when I recently heard Lauren Sánchez, Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos's fiancée, say that the company was 'building the road to space' Gil's words came to mind..

Best show on Radio 2 by a long distance. #blues #musicsky

If you can send afford to send Katy Perry to space you can afford to pay more taxes. Activists at @everyonehateselon.bsky.social make their feelings known about Jeff Bezos.
