This site is as f****d up as the other one in many ways. A complete lack of perspective from many "Mahmoud and Starmer are just like the Nazis", and a moral and ideological certainty about their worldview.

Four gigs this year and they have all been good.
Pixies
Iron Maiden
Wendy James
And last night’s Fields of the Nephilm set in Kentish Town was a great way to round off the musical year.
Roll on 2026 and 40 years of gig going.

Having seen Transvision Vamp twice back in 1988, virtually 37 years to the day I’ve had the pleasure of seeing @thewendyjames.bsky.social live again in Brighton.

West Ham have the worst fans in the league.
Silent but so quick to boo.
It’s football lads not pantomime.
I love my day out over there but so many of my own fans are utterly miserable.
Now I realise they haven’t had anything to cheer but the crowd used to be the twelfth man.
