Anyways just come out of my third gig in a row. Get Fontaines DC on the top of the Pyramid at Glasto and be done with it. What a band.

Next up We Are Scientists at Academy 2.

Brain Thrust Mastery was a massively nostalgic album for me. Lads never disappoint but there was something lacking a bit throughout.

Would like to shout out Sean McVerry though who was a huge surprise - worth a listen for fans of Vampire Weekend.

Thought it was probably time to start using Bluesky in earnest.

I went to two banging gigs this week:

First up, Blossoms at The Ritz. The lads are on another level at the moment. Incredibly tight and above all hugely fun. Worth mentioning support acts Delights and Neon Waltz also superb.

Finally got round to reading some Grady Hendrix in the run up to everyone’s favourite spooky month. Enjoyed it as a popcorn read - some effective scares and a couple of genuinely touching moments. Is it just me that’s getting a bit sick of the Stranger Things 80’s nostalgia shtick though?

Watching the director’s cut of Doctor Sleep for the first time. What a movie. Mike Flanagan truly one of the greats. Can’t wait to see what he does with Fall of the House of Usher.
