My new home, thanks to Twitter becoming shitter

Very European; lover of cats, travel and weird music
Also, I love how many obituary photos I've seen of him wearing a 1000 Homo DJs t-shirt there are!

thugs that hung around Princes St Gardens!

I'm so pleased that he made a global impact on dance culture and was so highly rated - even back in the early days, it was clear he was meant for great things

RIP Keith

not afford!

His DJ sets before (and after) gigs at The Venuein Edinburgh were awesome, sweaty nights out, always running so late that my friend and I would miss the last train back to Glasgow, so we'd walk around Princes St for hours until the first bus/train back home, dodging the knife-wielding

He and I tried to start a band, along with our friend Jim, in 1988 but it failed after two sessions due to me having absolutely no talent and even less confidence

We'd bump into each other in Fopp and Echo Records every week or so and he was good for a chat, always recommending records I could..

I see what you mean about the fake American preacher, I'm uneasy with it, too, but the horn section and the female singers are good enough for (at least) one, cozy, show in one of Glasgow's best venues

I hope we can find common ground and meet up at some point!

😆

No mark, I won't block you! We have our musical differences but what we share brings us close enough!

I know the GLC weren't (aren't) for everyone but they were for me, and I had some great times with fellow GLC fans in Bristol, Manchester and London, so I'm happy that we 'agree to disagree'!

I fucking hate the Blues Bros!

But then, again, I was a moderator on the Goldie Lookin Chain web forum for 6+ years so I, clearly, like silly music.

GLC are still, occasionally, rocking shit and I see OMGITC in the same vein. Maybe one 'hit' wonders, but I think they'll put on a decent show

Really? I thought you might be a convert?

What a shame, I was going to @ you because I thought you might appreciate them. Oh well... I fully realise that they won't be for everyone but I am really looking forward to seeing them (at least) once

Anyone with an ounce of funk in their veins, should seek solace in Funky Jesus and pray at the altar of oh My God! It's The Church whenever they can!

A week later, I've converted two of my closest friends and have 'maybe's from another two.

OMGITC might be a 'joke band' but they're funky as hell and seem to put on a GREAT show:

Sadly, I don't think I'll be seeing Laibach this summer - there was talk of me joining my Italian friends to see them in Nova Gorica (described, by Luca, as being the Italian/Slovenian version of West/East Berlin, which made me want to go even more) but circumstances, and flights etc, conspired :(

It's very true to the original:

Possibly because it wasn't officially released, worldwide at least. It now has been: laibach.bandcamp.com/album/die-ka...

The Instagram link below takes you to my photos and story of the gig back in 1988

I wish the band could have continued for a good while longer

One track does not a good album make, though, and I've always been sceptical about @nin.com's soundtrack work.

I don't think Trent's instrumentals are all as good as his songs, most on previous albums I just skip.

So, it's a no from me, for now at least, for the new Tron soundtrack:

I thought it was weird that Trent didn't include any new material during the European part of his current tour. This would have been an interesting addition and I think it would have gone down pretty well:

Oh, and if you didn't notice, Paul's album came with a free plastic sleeve. So that's nice!
July 11, 2025 at 11:09 PM
... it furthers my sadness that Paul and Al fell out at the turn of the century

Sure, the Bush Trilogy are great albums but Paul's bass, and occasional vocals, realy made @weareministry an awesome band

I really look forward to hearing the last Ministry Album now that Paul has rejoined
July 11, 2025 at 11:06 PM
OK, so one listen each and...

My god, it's great to hear Mark's voice again. What a loss, him leaving us so young 😢

The album is better than I thought it might be and, with further listening, it might be rather good

Paul's album is groovier and will also become better over time

Saying that...
