Just bottled these October Classics. Lets Go #BlueJays

Thanks for the idea @mickpuck.bsky.social. It’ll enhance my shopping experience greatly.

It would have my vote!

Montreal

Montreal

Last night, stayed along the shore of the St.Lawrence. That was the river. Tonight in Montreal, this is the scene.

The amazing Brother Paul Brown @bropaulbrown.bsky.social "The boy who had nothing became a man with gratitude to give because music wasn't just sound: It was survival."

I’ll be road-tripping from Halifax to the iconic Beanfield Theatre to see these cats play. Cool that the marquee features Steve Earle. Guest artist on track one of The Waterboys new album. @waterboysmusic.bsky.social

Motherfucking wind farms…

Just three 🇨🇦 dates: Sept 10,11 & 20: Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver, respectively. Road-tripping from NS for the Montreal concert.

Where the California wines once stood. Love Nova Scotia! 🇨🇦

Oh to be in Cork tonight. Waterboys, full moon and a great city!

Necessity found me heading southbound into the US two months ago. Cleared my phone of all political memes, comments, etc. Only one negative incident outweighed by many apologies. However returning home never felt more emotional. An exhale of sorts. youtube.com/watch?v=qjbF...

A fine choice for a day at the beach or anywhere equally relaxing with @johncreedon.bsky.social

If you are a fan of The Waterboys, Dennis Hopper or 50’s - 70’s cool, this documentary will not disappoint.

Here’s a draw worth entering!

Well done Mr. Springsteen.

Clever marketing.

Bonita Springs

Sun setting into the Gulf of Mexico. Feliz Cinqo de Mayo. 🇲🇽

Fingers crossed and elbows up Canada! 🇨🇦

Gotta love a good protest song! Pete Seeger would be proud.

The new Waterboys album, Life , Death and Dennis Hopper, is truly a wild and beautiful ride. I purposely saved my first listen for a road trip. No liner notes. No lyrics. Just the album played along the open road. It plays like a road movie with vibes ranging from Kerouac to Bacharach.

When you’ve been away from Canada for seven weeks, you really need to top up your soul with some fine Canadian rock ‘n roll by The Hip as performed by the great tribute band, Fabulously Rich. Now I cross another border. One familiar yet unknown. Those tunes will come along for the ride.

I cannot claim a green thumb when I care for only one plant. This is Eric the plant and his blooming was perfectly timed to welcome us home between trips abroad.

Another Waterboys classic! This band have enchanted me for 40 years and show no signs of stopping. Brilliant, exceeded even my high expectations.

A selection of Irish vinyl picked up while visiting record shops during my UK holiday.

Steve Earle and The Waterboys. A winning combination and a great opener for the new album.

My X app is now an ex-app.

These row houses in Boston, UK must have been special for those first occupants. Little did they know what was to come in five years.

Thank you 🎶 “older brother Mike”! 🎵

Couldn’t make the trip to Glastonbury Tor this year but Solomon’s Temple in Buxton was a fine substitute.

Caught the great English band, Levellers, last night in Nottingham. This tune was dedicated to President Zelenskyy. youtu.be/h1-EtAhs0RE?...

This post box in Cork tells me I must learn some Irish history.

This is lovely.

Spotted in a Lowestoft, UK cafe.

Blues in Cromer, UK

The Prime Minister and I were both invited to Norfolk today. I however, turned down the trip to Sandringham and found a piece of home in Cromer instead.

Hora de aprender um novo idioma.

Tragically Hip fans may be interested in a 🇬🇧 Facebook page, Music to my Ears. They are in the midst of ranking and reviewing every Hip album. They’ve done about four so far. You’ll have to scroll amongst other musical posts but you’ll easily spot the album covers. ❤️🇨🇦🎼 #tragicallyhip #gorddownie
