@lcdsoundsystem.bsky.social at Brixton Academy, 21/06/25. Amazing night, possibly the hottest, sweatiest gig I’ve ever been to such a great energy. The band were incredible and the crowd were really up for it.

Well Wonka is delightful, just the ticket for a festive family cinema trip.

Rewatched The Nice Guys, what a quality film. It’s criminal that they haven’t done more with those characters, a sequel or tv series, something.
