Random selection from today's Scarecrow Trail. A mummy, maypole strangeness, day of the dead and...various Daves🤔. Duffield. #Derbyshire

And the band played on. Big credit to Don't Worry for putting on a sterling "pre-match" set at @theoddies.bsky.social despite the game being postponed @specialistsubject.bsky.social

Hadn't registered that the BBC were showing Bundesliga games so good to happen across St Pauli as Friday night telly. share.google/JCKZtN96NVBO...

My #SOTW is "Funeral" by Sister John. Have had the album on a lot and this is my favourite track, just released on streaming services. Via @lnfg.bsky.social open.spotify.com/track/2hhhTc...

Must've been tricky to get a coherent story from such a complex reclusive character, so something of a triumph. Miles away from the standard rock bio. #Booksky

An unusual Sunday evening in the company of The Meffs (and Face Up) on the last date of their grass roots tour. Great noise, good turnout and all done by 7.45pm! #Derby @themeffs.bsky.social

My #SOTW pick this time is the Lovely Eggs "The Grind" youtu.be/H9AMU2hGthY?...

Jim E Brown kinda capturing the end of a long week feeling. youtu.be/w5Uf-s73pXY?...

There's also a fantastic band on at @theoddies.bsky.social No Peeling. An egg punk band from Nottingham. Course You Can Malcolm is free once you get in the ground. Just head for the arse end of the SMRE.

Granny Takes a Trip × 1 of 100 👉 COMING SOON Granny Takes Trip: High Fashion & High Times tracks the incredible story of the countercultural boutique which started at the wrong end of the King’s Road in the mid-1960s.

Last time we played London there were disappointed folk who left it too late to buy tickets and we sold out. Don’t make the same mistake. Us and the fabulous Autocamper in Hackney on 19 October and all done in time for us all to get home ok. Ticket link in bio and here: link.dice.fm/z9c64227bcf5

Yep, caught up with this now and agree with this review. I knew next to nothing about Devo so learned a lot. Entertaining and interesting.

PLEASE SHARE Louder Than War Announces Sea Power as headliner of our inaugural event in March 2026. Tickets and details here. louderthanwar.com/louder-than-...

Bearded Theory 2026 tickets bagged this morning. Looking forward to knowing who is on but it's a reliably good weekender.

#SOTW for me is the sprightly latest 'un from Home Counties "New Best Thing" youtu.be/rfkcY9KSLf0?...

Happy with Adult DVD, Home Counties, Coach Party, Soft Play and particularly Stealing Sheep all being added to the Rockaway Beach New Year celebrations. @rockawaybeach.bsky.social

Made time for a lunchbreak visit to "Your ears later will know to listen", the current exhibition at the Contemporary gallery #Nottingham An immersive, curious,multimedia experience. 👍

Calling on Central England! My next show (with drummer Daren in tow) is in Nottingham on 19 September – a Friday night special. Come down if you're anywhere in the Midlands ... Tix: wegottickets.com/event/672032

This is on BBC4 tomorrow at 9:00pm

Cracking triple bill last night including a double dose of Melbourne guitar noise from Delivery and Vovos. Always happy to see Good News too. At JT Soar #Nottingham

BEYOND delighted to announce that @weare1of100.bsky.social is making a Punk Rock Birdwatching Club teeshirt! You can successfully hide in scrub near a cycle path and not look dodgy! In fact, you’re better dressed than Beau Brummell with this on, phwoar! Details soon, add this in your spotter book.

Watching Throwing Muses is the perfect way to round off the weekend @krankenhausfest.bsky.social . Still essential.

Inspiring chat and very unexpected spoons playing from @richardjamesfoster.bsky.social to kick off Krankenhaus Sunday. Will look forward to his third book in the 'tulip trilogy'. #Booksky

Been enjoying the Sister John album via @lnfg.bsky.social this year so was well happy to get to see them yesterday. One among many highlights of Day2 at Krankenhaus. @krankenhausfest.bsky.social

Introduce yourself with the last 5 concerts you saw. 1. Objections and A Tota So 2. Gans, Death of the High St, Kez 3. Des Demonas, Dead Mint 4. Glas-Goes Pop festival 5. The Courettes and The Velocettes Not including being at a festival now.

Dean Wareham + Sea Power = Galaxie 500. Just magnificent 😍

#SOTW for me this week so far is Jehnny Beth "High Resolution Sadness" She is bringing the noise on this one youtu.be/FJbSk5HiweQ?...

On our way to the lakes for another weekend of festival fun with the @krankenhausfest.bsky.social crew.

A photo you took that brings you inner peace.

Loved it 🇾🇪

Another recent read. A more than a bit autobiographical novel on illness, coming of age and friendship. Made me want to jump on a plane to California too. #BookSky

Coldwell keeps finding new fans. Are you next?

Immediately immersed in the stark, dark world of Eyam 1666. A short but compelling tale with an intriguing lead and setting. I read it in one train trip and will seek out more from @roadsongbooks.bsky.social #BookSky

Getting Derby dancing on a Tuesday night takes some doing but The Courettes were more than up to the task. Fabulous indeed. #Derby

🙂👏🇾🇪

Tonights cinema trip. Very much as daft as expected.

#SOTW Delivery "Operating at a Loss" remix. Big fan of the original and now Adult Dvd have got their hands on it. 👏 youtu.be/r-GdCSsLago?...

Just finished rewatching the first series of Northern Exposure. Had long forgotten one episode had a very direct Twin Peaks bit in. youtu.be/O3RrgstxGzk?...

August… pop-ups, book fairs, book clubs! 😊📚❤️

Today's big bargain shopping. £10.99 total for an album and a book.

Last four gigs...What were yours? Glas-Goes Pop, Gans, Des Demonas, Sparks

Can't recommend this book highly enough folks - brutally honest view of society's raw, struggling soul & the shattered bones & filthy heart of ruthless economic barbarism. Heartbreaking, infuriating, inspiring, goddamn vital.

Saw this last week, early 80s Manchester flyposter exhibition. Worth a look at Mono, #Glasgow

Crows are so smart.

A new one to try. Pairs well with early evening sunshine. Cheers #Beersky

I has an exhibition beginning. #belper #derbyshire #art

Pleased with this charity shop find. Schoolday horrors read like a universal truth, nature isn't twee and punk is salvation. Lyrical descriptive writing on every page. #Booksky

Lemmy time! Ended up in Burslem for the first time ever today and stumbled across the brand new statue of their most famous son.

My late #SOTW nomination for this week is "Worldwide" by Snõõper. Good energy. youtu.be/MN4FTCL8PMQ?...

I'm not so sure about this 🙂
