Spent £15 on a now tv day pass to watch saints get beaten 3-0 before half time. Great times.

My Indian girlfriend after I showed her a video of Liam Gallagher…“He looks exactly like you! The hair, the unibrow, he looks like your long lost brother!”

Terrible habit of doing a little whistle when I feel awkward. What the fuck is that about

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

@mattbsgrv 😝 please let us know if you manage to write a good one in a different tuning, and I’ll do the same

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

Owen’s top songwriting tips. 1. If you are not able to make up anything resembling music in standard tuning…switch to an open tuning of your choice. And then you have an excuse for nothing resembling music. 2. Enjoy it.

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

@mattbsgrv 😂 do it! I haven’t got a single song not in standard tuning. But I have started writing some of them due to playing around in another tuning. I then just revert back to standard tuning when it becomes song-like haha

Enjoyed The Breeders at Glastonbury on the iplayer so much. Thought I’d watch a little bit to kill some time but was completely enchanted by it and loved the whole set

@KnoxvilleMorn The system only dreams in total music, bro 🤘

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

The National at Glastonbury…wow. What a band

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

@KnoxvilleMorn Some people can’t handle that amount of “I fucking love music!” energy, bro! Nothing you can do about it

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

Even with his haircut Doku looks like he’s in two minds what to do

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

So Southampton I typed thank you very much, before noticing predictive text had changed it to thank you mush

Just realised what is in the big hold all bags that people carry round the gym like they’re robbing backs…gym equipment! Who’d have think it

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

Left my amp at my parents house after playing a gig the other night…my dad tightened all the screws in it (they were almost falling out) and gave it a thorough clean. 😆 what a guy

Clapham Junction, the only railway station where they appear to employ someone especially to berate you over the tannoy if you step over the yellow line

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

The old one used to be “to be fair”

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

Can someone please tell football pundits they don’t need to say “listen” before saying something. We are listening, and it’s driving me mental.

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

@mattbsgrv It’s fucking great. 😂 I’m only doing it on my way to the gym atm, but I’m enjoying it so much it’s threatening to become a more general habit

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

I’ve decided I might become one of those weird blokes who west shorts in all weather. It’s liberating

[Owen Hackett @Owen_Hackett]

@mattbsgrv Too far gone!!
