Talking to the ex yesterday, catching up on the latest gigs we've been to or have planned. Tell 'em I'm off to see #Gans that night. The Ex: Is that the band you keep sending me videos of where the singer's got no top on? That would be a definite yes 😂 #Gans #DeafInstitute #Gigs

Proudly flying the flag in Manchester this evening #BlackCountry #Gans ❤️🤍🖤

April's month in reading. A few less than March, but overall enjoyed the books more 💙 📚

Off to see Gintis tonight. Great line up of free music at the annual #SmithdownWeekender shipwreckedrecords.bandcamp.com/album/gintis...

Feeling very fragile on way to work this morning due to lack of sleep. Glad it's sunny so I can hide behind shades. Mid week gigs ugh. But so worth it for Love band with Johnny Echols 💃🏻 open.spotify.com/track/5ckd7d...

*Dorothy is 93 and could be forced out of her care home* if her Reform-led council closes it. But she's speaking up ahead of the May 7th local elections, urging us to VOTE and stop Reform winning more seats.

Manchester does placards as only Manchester can. From yesterday's counter protest to Britain First. #WomenAgainstTheFarRight

Finally went to see Sinners tonight. Wow, just wow. Loved it!

Week off work and had the bright idea to tidy up the bookshelves in the lounge 🤦‍♀️ 💙📚

happy valentine’s day ❤️

Oh wow, XTC - Senses Working Overtime has come on from the playlist after The Human League. Guess I'm staying put for a bit longer ☕

Breakfast in the local caff and they're playing an instrumental of Things That Dreams Are Made Of which is making me very happy 💙🎧

The lad who was sitting behind me on the train stinking of weed has just pulled a box of blag frosties out of his coat to munch on 😂

Cinema tonight #FilmSky

@peterlatimer6.bsky.social I have a spare ticket for Big Special & Gans, New Century Hall Manc on Friday 20 Feb. Let me know if you fancy it.

When the book you're reading tells you there's going to be a significant event, but in no way did you see what was going to happen until it happened. So now I've got tears streaming down my face and feel like my insides have been pulled out in front of me. Reading's great isn't it 😭😭 💙📚

Missed out on Super Furry tickets but they've been added to @endoftheroadfestival.com The gig gods are smiling down. Plus very happy to see Kurt Vile, Gans and PVA added to the line up 🙌💃🏻🕺🏼

My first gig of the year and what an absolute belter at Yes in Manchester for #IVW Gans brought the energy and the tunes. There were huge mosh pits, crowd surfing and a stage invasion. What a way to start the 2026 gig year.

January reading wrap 💙📚

Ended up with a conspiracy theory cabbie on way home. Asked me if I thought Paul McCartney died in a car crash, coz that fella has a completely different shaped face to Macca. Then asked if I believed the CIA killed John Lennon. Anyway, I'm home safe 😂

The smell of burning electrics at a gig 😬

Very decent of Yes to be playing Julian Cope between bands tonight

30th January 1649 Charles 1 was beheaded in Whitehall. A lost traditional but nonetheless Happy Beheading King Day!

Day from hell at work. At one point I was in a teams call when my landline, mobile and teams all started ringing at the same time. Only one way to feel sane, listen to some Italian disco 💃🏻🕺🏼 Ornella Vanoni - Ti Voglio youtu.be/b-RDIKRtNNM?...
