Finally, at long last, my 60th birthday present has arrived, the new box set of one of my favourite albums, Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of The War of the Worlds. There’s so much content here to enjoy, with the Dolby Atmos mix of the album being simply stunning. ULLAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

Had the great pleasure of watching the amazing @stevenwilsonhq.bsky.social live in concert in Sydney last night. It was a truly fantastic show, with another musical great I can tick off my bucket list. #StevenWilson

For a horrible moment during our walk along Inch Beach here in Ireland, I thought the plane was going to hit the moon. Luckily, it just missed… 🌑✈️

Sad to hear of the passing of Rick Davies from the band Supertramp. Breakfast In America was a key part of my musical upbringing. RIP. 💔 #Supertramp #RickDavies

I’ve been fully retired now for 2 years and it has truly been fantastic, I highly recommend it 🙃. Of course, I’ve been as busy as ever, but focusing purely on just the fun stuff.

My selections for the Triple J Hottest 100 Hotest Songs. Unfortunately my No 1 Nick Cave song (The Mercy Seat) was unavailable for selection, but these all songs feature prominently on my playlists… 🎶

Finally finished my latest art piece that I started in early April. Not sure whether to call it “False Trails” or simply “Blue” as many people that saw it progress said “Oooo, that’s blue”… 🙃 #RichardFooteArt #CanberraArt #CBR #Art

Currently listening to the 2024 5.1 surround sound mix of this classic by Porcupine Tree, “Fear of a Blank Planet”. Just brilliant. #PorcupineTree

I STILL can’t believe Crystal Palace at long long last, after all these many many years, actually won the bloody FA Cup and will be playing in Europe next year!!! Don’t anybody pinch me, just don’t. ⚽️ #CPFC #CrystalPalace #FACup

Larry Ellison has lost a lot more so far this year, than sucking up to Trump has gained him. And things are likely only going to get worse as anti US sentiments grow. You reap what you sow… 🤷♂️ #Oracle

I’ve finally, at long last, finished my latest art piece called “Nottingham”. It was about 5 months in the making, but I’m really happy with the final result. So very pleased it’s going to a good home. #RichardFooteArt #CBR #CanberraArt
