Any good?

I think Metallica deserve special mention for covering themselves:

I love this sort of thing. here’s Richard Cheese and lounge Against the Machine with Down With the Sickness. No idea what this film is that’s been used in the video but I’m intrigued.

I think we need to request it.

This blog is quite good on the practicalities (and indeed was a few weeks ahead of the curve re the current debate): https://ianssmart.blogspot.com/2019/07/far-too-long-far-to-detailed.html

“Our friends in Hamas”? Laying that wreath? That gobshite he invited for tea on the HoC terrace?

I’m not a Lib Dem voter but this seems fair enough to me. Corbyn is just not a credible PM. What is needed is someone who can pull together the pro-EU majority in parliament. And that is not someone with a long […]

Yes, eating took some planning. I body-swerved the drinks package because I worked out that I’d need to drink 3 bottles of wine a day to break even. I’m just not up to it these days. Went for the ‘soda package’ […]

That’s lovely – a very happy birthday to your mum.

Thank you kindly. Much appreciated.

Someone has uploaded this high quality video of KB’s concert at Manchester Apollo on 10 April 1979.

Can some kind soul tell me how I can download a copy of this to a Mac?

Me too. And happy for him to stop there too, though I imagine that Crest of a Knave was a relatively big seller.
