Ahead of this year's Supersonic, we catch up with founder Lisa Meyer to discuss the intensifying challenges facing independent festivals, the picks from a brilliant lineup they've put together in spite of them, and more #Supersonic’s Lisa Meyer on the Festival’s 2025 Edition buff.ly/8kYebiv

Night sweet prince of darkness. Left half a pint of Caffreys at the quiz machine, took Paddington’s hand and strolled off to the great 11 stop in the sky

You won't remember this – or maybe we hung around different Internets before this app – but this is a follow-on from a post I wrote on @paradisecircus.com 9 years ago. hellosteadman.substack.com/p/why-im-hid...

When Dr Who was axed by the BBC in 1969, no one expected Verity Lambert and former Crossroads writers Letts and Dicks to bring it back for ITV. Cliff Richard was grounded on earth with his faithful hovercraft, Bessie and UNIT headquarters were based under Birmingham's Spaghetti Junction. #DoctorWho

Nearly 10 years since Pier Review was published. (You can still buy it amzn.to/40NmadU). As we drove round all 55 of England and Wales’s bloody pleasure piers in 10’days @probablydrunk.bsky.social and i often talked of getting marching pier tattoos. Last week we did.

Toksvig?? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We used all of Wales’s water to make this satirical cartoon about the Bin Strike on Chat GPT, we hope it helps move things forward.

Hot enough for you? Bins emptied?

Just in time for their Xmas tip. :)

Some of y'all can't handle 2 high agency males going at it and it really shows

Wow! This bin man has has all the kept promises from the council tattooed on his arm

The World needed* an acoustic version of Keep Right On To The End Of The Road to play after an emotional Wembley appearance or promotion securing victory for the Blues. So I made one as best I could. #BCFC Here with some old video. And on Spotify now: open.spotify.com/track/2evH3H... *maybe

Lovely vid.

Just over week til Blues at Wembley. Are you nervous yet? Let your heart beat strong. Keep Right On - available on Spotify, etc push.fm/fl/kro #BCFC #Blues #KRO

I’m releasing a cup final single, as teams don’t seem to do that any more. #BCFC Out today push.fm/fl/kro

Neil Morrissey, David Daker and Michael Elphick - it would be a huge Boon for the country.

I’m refusing to listen back to this now, out of embarrassment. But essentially I wanted to listen to a ‘grown up’ version of the remarkable song in the run up to #BCFC’s cup final. There wasn’t one, so I’m releasing a single Made to accompany an emotional Cup Final montage. push.fm/ps/keeprighton

Boon production moving to Nottingham after series 3.

Time to dig out the old classics. open.spotify.com/track/6mopgA...

Everyone from Birmingham is a Brummie, everyone in Birmingham can be a Brummie, as can anyone else who (for some reason or none) regards themselves as a Brummie. It is non-exclusive, and all are welcome. Ditto, for far even larger imagined communities.

The curse of Central Library claims another victim as Hooters goes tits up.

"Meta has spent over $100 billion on VR." Remember when Birmingham City Council continually had it's wallet inspected by this type of bullshit?

You know it makes sense.

FASHIONS BY GLARRYS

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models. In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded only 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta). Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.

If you've not yet read it, this brilliant interview with @sowetokinch.bsky.social by @steviechick.bsky.social is well worth your time. It's a great portrait of the artist ahead of his appearance at @southbankcentre.bsky.social this weekend when he'll premiere his newest work.

This is how you get what you want, right?
