Repost with an iconic fictional band.

As the greatest (semi) fictional band has already been mentioned (The Rutles, naturally - bless you Neil 🙏) here's Stillwater, from one of my absolute favourite films.

I flipping well love the BBC.

BBC Sounds, Radio 6, Test Match Special, CBeebies, BBC Sport website, Desert Island Discs, Peel Sessions. I’d be lost without them

Lefties think its too righty. Righties think its too lefty.

I just think its fab.

I'm doing my Stream of Conscious Mess experimental writing techniques workshop at Todmorden BookFest on Saturday 10am. Time to get the box files and folders out to see what materials I have. I would appear to be well prepared. A lifetime's accumulation of marginilia & miscellany. Do come.

Our huge, heartfelt thanks to Sam Fender, who’s donated his £25,000 Mercury Prize winnings to Music Venue Trust... after already making sure £1 from every ticket on his recent tour went to support grassroots music venues.

Because we believe in maximum transparancy / regrettable over-sharing: for a little bit, here's a rough demo of a new Assistant song. Just me on this one for now but AS and Pete will work their magic on a version in the weird future

A Friday hail Mary...

I have this gorgeous copy of Blowing Your Mind by Van the miserable Man which i would love to find an original sleeve for.

Does anyone have a tired copy, which a VG or better sleeve they'd be willing to sell to me (or for some Brighter Day credit)?
