Oh yeah, I wrote a blog post about unexpectedly performing at the HRH Prog festival.

I’m not a great political analyst, but I do feel Labour have made a tactical error by opting to be cunts.

Look, for fuck’s sake, humans have been migrating continuously for our entire existence.

Every single human in the world is the product of migration.

It’s what humans do. There is nothing *more* human.

That’s never going to change.

Just grow up, get the fuck over it and plan accordingly.

Set list for yesterday's unexpected and very enjoyable gig at HRH Prog.

Organised of course by subject matter, not song titles.

Pre-gig selfie. Off to play an unexpected impromptu acoustic set at the HRH prog festival.

This the face of someone who has been ill, hasn't rehearsed and can only remember half his lyrics. What could possibly go wrong?
