Wow! WOW!!! I wish I was near Manchester to go see this with many favorites playing like BMX Bandits, The Cords, Gina Birch and probably many new favorites to discover - Don't miss it if you are close by ... @bmxbanditsduglas.bsky.social

I am sure a Kings Award For Industry is on the way to Precious Recordings Of London, for their releases of old BBC sessions. I think they'd appreciate a postal order, too, of course. Fizzbombs 'Beach Party' from Janice's session of 39 years ago, is now on the MBRS. buff.ly/rKgHI2P

Calling everyone North of the Border - and those South of the Border with a car! 🚙 @markradcliffe.bsky.social & I have a Date in Edinburgh! 👇🏼💥 @thejase.bsky.social @philwilliamsradio.bsky.social 😘

You said something will change, we were all dressed up with somewhere to go.. Echo and the Bunnymen with birthday boy Mac played Edinburgh Odeon this week in 1981, a joyous hop through Heaven Up Here. Here’s my ticket, £2.30 bargain 🐰 @punkandnewwave.bsky.social @scotspostpunk.bsky.social

Can’t remember exact date, but our debut single, Thru The Flowers, was released this month 40 years ago. This recently reworked version of what was just a bare-bones demo recorded Oct 85 is approx. how it would have sounded if we’d recorded it around mid-86, when we began to add jangle to the fuzz.

Wishing Ian a very happy birthday. 😎🥳🎂 (Leave a birthday message below) 📷 Kevin Westenberg

This'll be cool ... and if we pull out our collective fingers, we might even have a new Josie single in time ... #manchesterpopfest

Indiepop Chronicles #53 40 years ago 1/3/86 Sounds The "Magnificent" Therese by The Bodines reviewed "Half breathless, half bewildered vocals chase after an urgently recurring guitar pattern and a long lost sense of something or other" @mamtoruk.bsky.social what did you make of that?

One of my favourite things I've done is create a 44-page fanzine about nothing but Heavenly @heavenlyamelia.bsky.social @skepwax.bsky.social - full of interviews, fact files, problem pages, recipes and all sorts of silliness from the band, including Mathew. Fortunately, the band love it, too - phew!

This is the setlist I swiped the night before at Dundee University.
