I love them! I had QAcoustics bookshelves before that were great but moved to a house with bigger room and they couldn't fill the space, these do and they sound very natural, don't need to use my loudness button anymore!

This was my recommendation of the week on this mornings gig guide, really looking forward to it tonight!

#nowplaying one of the first records I bought (92, switched to vinyl as cds too expensive!), #pavement funny to see Ken mansplaining them in the #barbie movie 😂

People either seem to love or hate this Fat Dog lp, I think it's really good, reminds me of Gaye Bykers on Acid, gutted will be out of country when they play Luxembourg in April

Why should we call them guilty pleasures? I genuinely love this album, has been with me nearly my whole life! Yes it sounds better on my cd version but love playing this old copy I found in a charity shop on my birthday a few years back

Love New Fast Automatic Daffodils, so underrated yet such an amazing sound. Not cheap to get hold of their albums on vinyl so was pleased to get this Pias40 sampler. Big is just sooooo good!

I may love music the most but hard to think of anything better than skiing in fresh powder! Merry Christmas to all you lovely people on here!!!

#nowplaying King Hannah while I drink red wine and eat Pringles. Because that's the mood I'm in. Roll on tomorrow evening and the holidays!

I don't get Amazon pricing, look at the difference in this Ride LP between UK and Germany!

And so final gig of the year - Porridge Radio, enjoyed that, intense performance
December 17, 2024 at 9:20 PM
SPRINTS tonight at Rotondes!!! What a gig, great fun and a really good performance!

Just back from seeing DIIV, must have been one of loudest gigs I've ever been to! They were very good though and hardly any phones out (I just took one quick pic!)
December 13, 2024 at 10:11 PM
Still got my copy! Number 1944 (wonder how many there were?), The trickster is one of my favourite Radiohead songs. As is My iron lung. Which makes it a pretty amazing ep!

Now I'm not a Guns n Roses fan but even if I was I think over €1200 for a concert ticket that includes a chance to ask a member of their crew a question and have a pic on stage with their instruments is a fucking rip off! I would take full advantage of the free bar 🤣🤣🤣, but you do get a lanyard!

Really enjoyed Honeyglaze tonight, much more detailed sound than I expected

#nowplaying Ask anyone who hasn't heard this album when it was released and they are likely to say the '90's*, so ahead of it's time. *based on a poll of 1 😁

Trying to teach my children about an important musical scene. Don't think they care.... I do though 😄
