Catching up on the highlights of day 1 of the Ashes. There's an England flag in the crowd with a fucking spitfire on it. Disgraceful lack of a poppy mind.

Decent set that from English Teacher. Really nice Mani tribute with the first few bars of Waterfall and the bass intro of Fool's Gold. Have to say The Orielles shaded it for me though.

Bloke next to me at Albert Hall wouldn't need a charging bank for his phone if he hadn't spent 90% of The Orielles' excellent set on fucking Facebook. Great performance all round, mostly new stuff off next year's new album, but I have to say, Sidonie's drumming in particular was phenomenal.

Stunned to hear the sad news about Mani. Absolute shock. For all the ace bass lines though, can't not think of him without remembering the video of the young Mani being interviewed after the ferry contretemps with West Ham with his Head bag over his shoulder. RIP.

Just seen a Hull FC fan in a Make England Great Again cap. Summat tells me he's probably not just referring to the fortunes of the national rugby league side, the bad that.
