Just fired my hairdresser. He doesn’t actually know he was fired, but let me assure you, he was.

Did this about my town as a student, though mine was “It is considered a ‘pillow town’ due to its location on soft soil”.
Iirc it was up for a couple of years, until a local teacher disputed it.

In the early days of Wikipedia I created a fake entry about my village that included a fake Lord in the middle ages named after an 80s B Movie action hero. It is still up and being taught in the local Primary school as fact.

Anyone remember the day Antidepressants came out? I know right, talk about a trip down memory lane! We were younger then.

No job for me then.
I refuse to hire anyone who has no ear lobes.

Just remembered I solved the mystery of why I look so troubled here, as I caught myself doing this face at the recent shows.
I was singing along!
When trying to sing, even when alone, I always have a cautious, self-conscious expression.

Shit, you’ve got me there.
Oh btw, I once had a chat with the very man running this very market stall, and he quickly got to ranting about foreigners.

Say what you want about Damon (seems a bit of a twat, plenty of empty seats at Wembley night 2, Flimsy Steve) but he’s put Sparks back in the singles chart for the first time in decades.
It’s really good too, but I’ll put that down to the Maels’ songwriting.

Suede’s off mic performance was unreal! Finally got to see Tightrope!
It also turns out James McCartney is a Suede fan?!

Excellent gig, probably the better of the two nights! Witnessed ‘The Sadness…’ live for the first and only(?) time, Brett now has a belt, and in avoiding Brett’s mic swinging Richard got so close I had to zoom out to properly capture the moment.

Left the dancefloor as soon as I found out it was Mansun. Should have guessed really from it clearing out all the women.

Given you lot were authorised to clog up the streets of central London today to protest, clearly no-one’s taking away your free speech. Case closed.

In the hotel observing the idiots on their little march with their St. George blankies, and they all look identical.

A solid show made up entirely of post-reunion bangers, at the venue formerly known as Pryzm the Banquet Records outstore show.
A full-circle occasion for me, for this was where I arrived early to queue in September 2022 and first began befriending IOs, which led to me having a life.

Cheered for Suede at Radio 2 in the Park, and already home during Soul II Soul.

Haha he’s late, ‘still making edits’, the stupid c***.
I’m gonna say Bieb*r’s probably not a threat:
- No hit (or otherwise??) singles
- Following up his #4 album too quickly
- Poor quality control
- Star has arguably waned just a tad
His demographic will hopefully just stream bits of it in the background and move on.

At this point Suede’s USP is being that band that makes brilliant albums.

It’s too early to tell, but to my ears it might actually be better than Autofiction🥲
This is unheard of for a band on their 10th album - they are peerless.
