Northern, but not like that.
RIP to the most approachable member of The Stone Roses.

Shocked by the unexpected loss of Mani at only 63 years old. 🖤

Spending A LOT of time solo gig going these days.

There must surely be a club for folk of a certain age to gather with like minded gig goers in Glesga?

On tonight's menu, shame at The Garage. I suspect I'll come away feeling particularly old after this one.

Anyone out to see @bccamplight.bsky.social in Glesga tonight?!

An unusual topic for the BBC to cover, but I guess it can be a whole lot of fun with the right person.

... not sure about doing it on horseback mind.

Weapons. The longest, weirdest advert for Campbell's soup you're ever likely to watch.

Well, this was an unexpected and pleasant surprise.

A brand new album, You, Me and the Moon by #PeterandKerry.

Hoping they might do a few shows. 🤞

Punks of course, absolutely notorious for their impeccable time keeping! 🙄

Man! Life would sure look far less dystopian if I was a hate filled, racist bigot right now.

Hell in a handcart, doesn't begin to cover what's happening in the US.

Happy Independence Day to those who still seek genuine freedom.

I'm struggling to sleep at night, caused by the anxiety of the spiralling costs of my sleep medication.

Saw this up close and personal in Glesga a couple of weeks ago and was absolutely blown away! #OSees

As the general vibe has parallels with the early 00s, I figured I might as well revisit Lost in its entirety for shits and giggles.

Actually holds up better than I expected.

25 years on, the absolute majesty of Doves' The Cedar Room remains.

... drowning out the snorting of the snot riddled woman sat across from me on the train at any rate.

Sickener about being up early today is, there's little point in heading into the office early, I've got meetings later in the day, so making a sharp exit, sadly, isn't an option.

Still, at least I've got the BlueSky void for company.

Stumbled into Lost in the Dream by the War on Drugs. This album essentially soundtracked my move to Glasgow back in early 2014.

Name an album that soundtracked a significant time in your life.

At least being up this early, I get to witness the supreme sexual shenanigans of the spuggies shagging atop my conservatory gutters.

Dorty bords!

I give up. The window for sleep has closed.

Time to get up and drag myself through the day I guess. 🥴

Absolutely fantastic ride by Simon Yates at the Giro d'Italia today!

Delighted to see him finally on the verge of winning a Grand Tour.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

Another belter of a song from @thebugclubband.bsky.social

Lyrical genius, sublime indie pop harmonies. What's not to love?!

These guys should have a couple of mega chart hits in their bag by now.
