I think seeing tagabow tonight was my 100th show at Brudenell Social Club (no. 1 being Tamaryn back in 2013.) [If it wasn’t, one of the upcoming others will be.] One of my fave places in the world, here’s to the next 13 years!

Bloody hell, super early Lush (my fave) too. Salute to this DJ.

Ah, Besnard Lakes on the PA at @Nath_Brudenell . Seen them 3 times here, here’s holding out for no. 4 one of these days.

Seems like a good afternoon to celebrate my shelf. I’ll get me coat… @soniccathedral #20years

Really never had the theme from I, Claudius down as one that I’d spontaneously start singing to myself, but that’s twice this week now. You live and you learn, I guess.

Night 4 of 4 in Denmark. Not heard a single note of a Mew song. Maybe only Brits like ‘em? Who knows (not me.)

Vegan meal gratefully demolished, vegan credentials somewhat tainted by blood from my cut lip smeared on my cutlery. “It was vegan when it reached you, sir.”

Well, Tenacious D can still rock the shit out of a big room, so that’s something.

Feel like there was a near-Shakespearean soliloquy droned out there somewhere that was meant for me.

Feels somewhat passive-aggressive re. my homekeeping skills, the gesture of this fly having taken the time to travel all the way from floor to work surface to theatrically die on its back.

[Russell Bailey @fretman10]

So I suppose the abiding message is: see my replies for the shit NY message, go easy on me if you’re judging me purely on relevance / things that require 100% goodnes [where good is a variable term but bends to whatever you’re seeking out in the context.]Yay?

[Russell Bailey @fretman10]

(Because one of them turns up in sodding Replies but doesn’t tell me what it’s a reply to. I know I’m officially old now, but this is daft.)

[Russell Bailey @fretman10]

And now, because I so seldom use the Social Media Platform Formerly Known As Twitter (but sharing the same url) [honestly, Prince was positively snappy with his nomenclature in the ‘90s], I can’t tell if that (or this)missive is in response to something else.

[Russell Bailey @fretman10]

It’s proving to be quite a (ok, a very) Seefeel NY. Quique all over my boink, as it were. Not sorry. Happy NY, anyone who observes (sentimentally - I realise everyone needs a functional calendar.)
