Just a reminder how great the Buzzcocks were and how well the music aged. For me the essence of interesting pop music. Three minutes (barely!) of energy and brilliant songwriting. Pete Shelley is missed.

Neil Kulkarni left us a year ago. He ripped through the music press like a benevolent hurricane, laid waste to monumental mediocrities but never punched down. He was fired by a raging sense of inclusivity, the belief that things could, should be so much radically better for everyone. Sorely missed.

As late as yesterday, members of Fifa's Council did not know how tomorrow's World Cup 2030 and 2034 "acclamations" would be confirmed
One suggestion, only half-joking, was they'd "count the applause"
There is virtually no scope for dissent

Someone said ‘God, November took forever!’ and like every year, I agreed, because it’s just easier than saying ‘no, my one and only life is hurtling by and I can never do all I want with my time on earth!’

I gave "Funeral Pyre" by The Jam a semi-rare outing at @spellboundclub.bsky.social on Saturday. Their one Goth song! ("We feast on flesh and drink on blood...") Which somehow snuck the word 'pissing' past the censors. What a beast of a record. A showcase for Buckler.

Like Wile E Coyote and The Road Runner, Droopy, Laurel & Hardy, I regard Rod Hull and Emu as among the purest, greatest, ingenious comedy. I laughed hard at this in 1975, I laugh just as hard almost 50 years later. m.youtube.com/watch?v=cPvg...
