Nancy By Ernie Bushmiller March 22,1958

Saw ‘The Doors’ where an ‘over stimulated’ audience member attempted a loud dialogue with the characters. He was removed just as Jim Morrison was arrested onscreen. “They got me too Jim!” He cried “They got me too!”

I love Beatles music videos where Ringo has nothing to do because they couldn’t be bothered to drag a drum kit in so he’s wandering aimlessly/holding an umbrella/riding an exercise bike

My Bloody Valentine at Wembley tonight is the first show I’ve ever gone to where they were basically forcing earplugs into your hand on the door. Literally people standing at every entrance with a sack of foam earplugs giving them to you.

New York Democrats can do better than Zohran Mamdani. by Eric Adams, Bill de Blasio, Andrew Cuomo, Chuck Schumer, Kirsten Gillibrand, David Paterson, Eliot Spitzer, and Anthony Weiner

@themountaingoats.bsky.social are always one of the best shows you can possibly see. Third time for me. Can’t wait for next year!

A radio programme like the Shipping Forecast but it’s called Bin Day and it just reads out every single council in the country’s bin schedule

Saw Swans the last two nights - their gigs really break your perception of time. What felt like 10-15 minutes of noise during one of the songs was, looking at a bootleg recording this morning, closer to 5. Meanwhile a seemingly 8-minute rendition of A Little God In My Hands was actually double that

The experience of sitting in a cab, watching the metre slowly go up until you decide you’ve had enough is quite a lot like youtu.be/7xlNc5inymo

I was hoping whatever was bursting out of the guy's chest in Alien would be something nice

It's over: I've already depicted you as the seething broad gauge train, and myself as the smug narrow gauge!

“A tiger, an elephant, a giraffe…”

Put my playlist of all the Beatles albums and all their solo work on shuffle earlier. Managed to get seven solo McCartney/Wings/Fireman tracks in a row at the start before Ringo came on

I don’t know if there’s a more perfect illustration of the utter fucking nonsense that creative pollution by AI will produce than this choice to illustrate the power of Paramount’s new “localization” and “customization” technology by face-swapping Brad Pitt into the lead role of GET OUT

Springsteen’s newly uncovered Electric Nebraska has some revelatory stuff (Atlantic City, Born in the USA, Downbound Train) mixed with some stuff like Johnny 99 that just sort of doesn’t really work. Can see why he went with the demos as much as I really enjoyed the band version of the album

Mama by Genesis is probably the furthest away from actual drums the 80s gated drum sound got. The snare is basically just a white noise burst. Incredible.

Whoever maintains the “Eric Roberts filmography” on Wikipedia is one of the hardest working people in the world

The Repair Shop with Werner Herzog: Guest: "Stunning work, thank you" WH: "How do you feel seeing this object, a symbol of your dead wife? Though constructed of crude, worthless materials, it has been resurrected like some cheap miracle, mocking your grief and dead wife, now condemned to oblivion."

One thing everyone on this site can agree on is that instead of listening to the new Taylor Swift album people should listen to real music like Steely Dan

On National Poetry Day, the greatest poem I have ever read

Martin Carthy being nominated for the Mercury prize has been great for hearing every host and newsreader on 6Music today have to say “Transform Me Then Into A Fish”

this city is afraid of me. i have seen its true face.

ejecting the Mr Bean dvd with a heavy sigh as soon as the slapstick antics start. just once can this guy pull himself together? just for one episode can he act like a professional. hey we've all had a laugh ok, but how about let's get through some plot

Rudy Giuliani just set a world record in the field of Statement That Invites More Questions Than It Answers.

here’s a version where the POV is blacked out whenever the driver takes their eyes off the road

Just had the realisation that for a lot of people, Maxwell’s Silver Hammer might have been the first time they’d noticed a synthesiser on a rock song

How I’d respond if Phil Collins asked me to name a film he’s been in.

Do not ask how much time I actually spent on this, I hope this is satisfactory

Going back in time and convincing Genesis they need to play every song they’d ever recorded live in 1977 so we had the whole discography sounding as good as Seconds Out

I like this one more every time I see it. September 7, 1956

Cardiacs share new single "Woodeneye," from 'LSD', the album they've been working on for 20 years

PREORDER: 'LSD' by Cardiacs Returning with a seventeen track album, the cult-iest of all cult UK groups are back with a follow up to 1999’s ‘Guns’. www.normanrecords.com/records/2108...

Didn’t want to say that I’d heard it before the Official Release due to getting overexcited and some VPN shenanigans but the new Cardiacs single is absolutely brilliant stuff. Cannot wait for the album next month!

First time at the Windmill in Brixton and as someone on gig 23 out of at least 37 this year I’m now convinced I’m still not going to enough shows. £10 tickets! Enough said.

Goodnight everyone I hope you all have a restful relaxing sleep When you try not to think about something it sticks Just visualise the thoughts floating away like a balloon Out of your head into the sky Be free Let go ❤️❤️❤️💙❤️❤️❤️

STOP SPREADING THE FALSE REPORT that Ozzy Osbourne, Hulk Hogan and Chuck Mangione all simultaneously shot each other like at the end of Reservoir Dogs. They were not in the same location and passed of natural causes.

Here you go. If Black Sabbath had been Acid Folk softies. open.spotify.com/playlist/5Oj...

Sharon I bloody died Sharon. Sharon they sent me to bloody heaven. Where are the bloody flames Sharon. Sharon it’s all bloody choir music up here Sharon. Sharon for fucks sake all the white is bloody blinding me up here Sharon

Ozzy was the greatest metal vocalist of all time. He had it all - the power, and the absolute, bone chilling terror of a man who had seen all of what he was singing about, all contained in his absolutely electric voice. Rest in peace. You will never, ever be bettered.

coriandher.bandcamp.com/album/no-arm... my album released. I’ve been working on it. So much. And now it’s out! Its “a cosmic rock in opposition/hyperpop/avant-splurge meltdown” with “a novel's worth of painstakingly (and densely) plotted lyrics” and I would be extremely grateful if u could listen……

✋🤠🤚 hold it right there cowpoke! i reckon you might could use a 28 second break 👋🤠🤙
