Domestic bliss, the pressures of fame, wild swimming. All this and more in my chat with @futureislands for @guardianmusic. https://t.co/jLxFjYf0It

@JDVance You’re a fucking idiot.

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

Clearer than ever that @elonmusk and @realDonaldTrump are facists. @Nigel_Farage too.

If anyone is left here or still reading this, I’ve gone over to the happy place too. Come say hi.

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

@yeoldemother Yes please!

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

So, @Eurovision 2024 is coming to #Malmö you say, where I live?

Who wants me to cover it for them?

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

@KCMANC @LizTray "the narrative", LOL - listen to yourself.

When it comes to a persecution complex, Citeh fans are worse than Trump's MAGA brigade.

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

@LizTray Enjoy your purchased “triumphs”! #cheats

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

@jakebam Absolutely. Can’t wait until it’s taken away from them.

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

Citeh fans celebrating like this means something …..grow a pair and own up to financial doping. You’ve cheated this like you’ve cheated everything else. So pipe down. #cheats

Wrote the bio for my all time favs @dEUSbe’s new album, which is really very good.

[[PIAS] @pias_global]

Belgian art-rockers @dEUSbe are back with ‘How To Replace It’, their first album in 10 years and they can’t wait to play it live for you as they embark on their tour across Europe this March & April!

@Sheridan_Repton @DaveeGallagher1 @TicketmasterCS @TicketmasterUK So, I *finally* got a response from customer service. Two in fact! One said I’d be emailed the tix, the other said I had to collect them at the box office…

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

Hey @TicketmasterCS, 2 hours I’ve been trying to get your chat bot to work - no agents, been cut off TWICE, endlessly filling in the same info, and STILL no response to an urgent query. How can I talk to an ACTUAL PERSON????

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

@mad1507 @ReeceHolloway10 @TicketmasterCS Mental isn’t it? Genuinely don’t understand why this show has to be so last minute for tix (with other shows you get the e-ticket instantly)

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

@ReeceHolloway10 @TicketmasterCS Likewise!

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

@ReeceHolloway10 @TicketmasterCS No, it’s for Guns N’ Roses on Friday. Can’t believe they are having to “finalise” details for tickets 4 days before the show tho, absolute farce.

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

@TicketmasterCS Not good enough. I’ve emailed a query as well, and still no response. This is awful customer service.

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

Yes, I can confirm - Swedish people *do* feed their guests. #Swedengate is absolute nonsense. https://t.co/YUaxTfeGdW

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

Pseudo-intellectual “critics” take note - THIS is how you should interview St. Vincent.

Wonderful profile for @ClashMagazine by the always brilliant @matthewgneale. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 https://t.co/idcrvhTxGT

[Derek Robertson @derekrocks]

Off to #London to see one of my very favourite bands, @Grandaddy, play one of my very favourite albums, The Sophtware Slump. Anyone I know going, or around in Soho tonight for 🍜 and/or 🍻?
