He rarely plays live these days, but if you fancy a trip to Medway he puts on a good show
IanP commented on the post, the Amazing World Of Billy Childish! 1 week, 5 days ago

Archive From 1959, a two CD retrospective is a decent place to start.
The Milkshakes and The Buff Medways are my favourite periods, but as you probably know,his sound doesn’t change that much from band to band.

Presumably blue-collar Bruce has more than enough industry clout to put a stop to this if the mood took him?

Yes, if only they’d followed the example of Corbyn who was nothing but the loyal backbencher during the Blair years.

There was also a branch in Southend, it’s where I bought most of my records till I went to Plymouth to study and switched allegiances to Meat Whiplash.

On Your Breath, and Jim Thirwell’s various Foetus incarnations. I loved his 80s output, but have since lost touch with his prodigious output.
Wash It All It Off was a magnificent single and Hole was an a […]

I was at the 2019 Jazz Cafe show mentioned in the article.
He was so popular I got four free tickets from a seat filling agency; they were giving them away and the place still wasn’t half full.

is on Sky Arts tomorrow at 6pm if you fancy cracking the seal on a new video tape.
Haven’t seen the Spike Lee film, but the live show was something special so I have this down as a must-see.

In the past I have cooked porchetta but in recent years my wife has demanded a bird, and as the kids and me find turkey deathly dull, we have settled on roasted organic capon.
Usually served without too many […]

In my misguided youth when I was going for the young Elvis look I favoured Murray’s Superior Pomade or Nu Nile. Nice tins, too.

I hate to lower the tone, but is that an insect with breasts?

Throwing myself at the mercy of the Massive here – it’s been brought to my attention that a couple of months ago there was a significant article about The Redskins in one of the music mags.

Jimbo was my first thought too, when I opened the SDE email.
I don’t think I’ve known another Sisters fan, and he was adamant I should be listening to them instead of The Smiths.
