Only just got round to this. Lushly remastered in 2022 from a 1985 gig recording. Astonishingly good.

At the start of this, shocked by the gap between the stage and the audience (my last Glastonbury was 1997). By the end, utterly shocked by Cave's melodramatic closeness to the audience.

Just stumbled across a recent, quickly cancelled, not greatly received Rob Lowe TV drama set in my kind of obscure home town of Boston, Lincolnshire. Even if it's not that great, seeing my childhood backdrop in such a thing probably means I'm on board here...

One more chance to catch Paul Thomas Anderson's ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER on Tuesday 9th June. Don't miss this equal parts stunning, thrilling, and laugh-out-loud Academy Award-winning film at The PCC. ๐๏ธ

Another wonderful discussion. Kermode also enthuses about Punch-Drunk Love (an old fave of mine) and Phantom Thread (new to me when I saw it in March). These two, plus OBAA, all hit me ecstatically in the Prince Charles cinema just after getting out of hospital in March.

As much a general analysis of Nolan, but the bit that focuses on Tenet is a great analysis, a slight dispute, and a wonderful appreciation. Kermode and Howard have such a good vibe of knowledge and humour between them.

Wonderful reaction - especially at the beginning of the track connecting the tune to football stadium chants, and after the end going wild after confirming that people were chanting this track.

The best ACID HORSE festival so far over the weekend. I had a curious aversion to capturing the diverse performances in photos, I was so immersed in the Wiltshire wonder and electric exhiliration. Visceral, magical, utterly blessed by the onset of freakily good weather.

Been loving reactions to this great live performance. Just discovered a Mr. Video reaction to it - amazing. The moment when he pauses just as the drums kick in, emits some crazed reflections, then gets hit so hard as he starts the video again, is scintillating.

It's been 16 months since I left X, and I feel so much better for it. I hadn't realised just how big an impact the daily tsunami of hate, trolling, sealioning and strategic incomprehension was having on my state of mind. I cannot understand why anyone who values their mental health is still there.

At an amazing rooftop bar near Old St last night, for a friend's birthday, I hit upon the resonant pun between 'l'age d'or' and 'large door', which I feel like I've never encountered before. Possibly memory issues, as of course it's been heavily hit on before:

I've known Orryelle Defenestrate-Bascule for around a quarter of a century, but his clay-masking, utterly, darkly surreal performance yesterday at the splendid 'L'Age D'Or' exhibition of art in Hoxton felt like the peak of my experience of his magical creativity.

Something shocking and out of the ordinary is happening in the UK. While in most comparable countries, healthy life expectancy is rising, here it is plunging steeply. Q. So what marks us out? A. 47 years of extreme neoliberalism, culminating in austerity.
