Deaf School, so great! I had their debut LP 2nd Honeymoon on the turntable for months back in 1976, and it still sounds fresh today. Another amazing band from Liverpool

Mermaid Avenues 1 & 2 are two of my favourite albums of all time! And I've been listening to albums for about 65 years (my big brother started me young, age 5, with Elvis :-)
Exited to announce that Wilco and I will be getting together to perform songs from Mermaid Avenue live for one night only at Solid Sound Festival on June 26, 2026 in North Adams, MA.
Call it special, call it historic, whatever you call it: it's one you won't want to miss.

This is well worth listening to - brilliant insights into a worldwide problem. Key points: grievances are contagious, social media allows them to be spread at light speed, and forgiveness - even just *imagining* forgiving someone - is an effective antidote. Transcript: tinyurl.com/bx8hxu54
Author, lawyer, and lecturer in psychiatry James Kimmel, Jr. shares the neuroscience of revenge—and tips for controlling the urge to get even: buff.ly/pE8yK0f
![When we perceive a real or imagined grievance in our minds, this [activates] the pain network inside your brain. And when that occurs, the brain wants to restore homeostasis. The way that the brain does that... is to seek pleasure by inflicting pain upon other people. —James Kimmel, Jr.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:rjtifgmgwnacwa24lqp4tpsy/bafkreie6ioxpof7u5iffa5q5dynymjmet2h3ld6fvfi4wqpi7fv7vffrwi@jpeg)
