A bass guitar-playing lover of movies & music. I also enjoy playing drums. I think of others, so just deal with it. I really need to get to more live gigs, but at least I got to see Oasis and Radiohead this year.
So who is going to serve Trump with legal papers?
The last president who declared that anything he does is legal was Richard M. Nixon. And we all know how things worked out for him . . .

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends!
I hope you get to spend the day/evening with your loved ones, and don’t get stuck in Wichita, Kansas sharing a motel bed with Del Griffith.
Of course, here in the UK, today is known to us as Thursday.
Most of us are still grateful for a lot tho.

Back with the 1987 Festive 50, and this next band helped bring “world music” into alternative playlists in the West. Their presence here showed just how Peel’s audience embraced non-Western music.

A copy of the classic cyberpunk sci-fi computer game Omikron: The Nomad Soul is on display at the V&A David Bowie Centre, Stratford.
The soundtrack was written & performed by Bowie and Reeves Gabrels, whose guitar work helped shape the game’s dark, futuristic atmosphere, and lead to the Hours… LP.

So if a burglar says he assumes burglary to be legal, they’ll not be jailed for their crimes?
Not sure that’s how justice works.

I'm so excited to have received a Radiohead Ticket Code for the upcoming gig dates!
Also, it's so pleasing to see this message in the email:
"The ticket price is fixed and will not change dynamically."
That's how to do it.
Now, I need to bag some tix 🤞
