Looks like #Eurovision2021 will be getting a huge audience of #Glastonbury fans who can’t access the #LiveAtWorthyFarm stream

@NNNPackdrill A thing of great beauty

MBW has reviewed a transcript of the DCMS Select Committee. In a non-stop conversation across approximately 1hr 45 minutes, the word 'songwriter' was mentioned just three times: Twice by @AlexDaviesJones and once by Universal's David Joseph.

I remember a few years ago on an awayday to Tranmere tweeting how it was easier to get in and out of the Korean Peninsula than the Wirral Peninsula.

For the benefit of the Government I would like to confirm I was fucking joking not floating a policy proposal.

Hey @MattHancock, in the past I’ve spent a large amount of time with people who would do little more than ingest mind bending hallucinogenics for most of the day. After much consideration I can confirm that they all made more sense than you and your lockdown announcements. Sorry

[Mike Smith @65MikeSmith]

In case you are wondering what heaven sounds like. Thanks for your friendship Tim you inspired and changed us all https://t.co/jrZ5NAZjcy

@grahamcoxon That man changed my life forever, he understood the power of music, music to fight titans

@DaveRowntree @CardiacsBand So sad about this, he taught us the meaning of transcendence

@mollydneuman Delighted to be on the team

@NNNPackdrill Nice repurposed 1930s garage there

@NNNPackdrill @RobertChapman @TimDalgleish Magnificent painting overshadowed only slightly by the shirt

Richard Penniman was an outrage in 1956 - nothing like him had been seen before. He was black, had been a drag queen and was extremely flamboyant. Tutti Frutti broke before Heartbreak Hotel in the US. Here he is, total punk in 1956

RIP Little Richard, and thank you for Everything – especially one of the greatest ever opening lines/statements of intent 💔

@StreetStephen @blurofficial @The_Cranberries How lucky we were to be alive back then

Thanks @JohnWilson14 for the shout out and my picture of his handsome mug

[John Wilson @JohnWilson14]

In a last lunch before lockdown a few weeks ago, my friend @65MikeSmith sketched me on his phone as I was banging on about art or something. Amazing what you can do with an app (and a knack for drawing, obvs). Let’s all have a go, and send to @BBCFrontRow
