And this is marvellous too. Half of them are in The Kaisers (not the Kaiser Chiefs!) who are fabulous live. Would love to see these guys live

Hungry Like The Wolf of Wall St (Shuffle?)
The Hungry Heart of Darkness
The Little Prince Charming

Made it in plenty much time and a rather fabulous gig it was too!

I’m off to Shepherd’s Bush for this tonight – Can anyone give me an idea of stage times?

a) The Pretenders at The Hammersmith Odeon, 1980
b) My older sister and her then boyfriend
c) They were rather fine – still had James Honeyman- Scott and Pete Farndon
d) Well, I still have the first three studio […]

Back in the mid 90s, I worked at an independent record distributor based in Tottenham. It was basically a warehouse with an office at the side where the sales folk tried to persuade record shops to take our stuff […]

Liar Liar – The Castaways
Hole in My Shoe – Traffic
Hard Work – Smoove & Turrell
Two Fingers – Jake Bugg
Crazy Ex Boyfriend – The Reverend Horton Heat

Definitely random ‘cos I didn’t even know Traffic was on my iPod

Lloyd Cole and The Commotions….Lloyd’s never been shy of a name drop

Collins, Kirk, McClymont, Daly

Sick on You: The Disastrous story of The Hollywood Brats , The Greatest Band You’ve Never Heard of – By Andrew Matheson, is a great read.

Giving this a wee bump for tomorrow night – and here’s a taste of what we sound like – dodgy lip synching at no extra charge.

‘I’m standing winding staircase, seven eagles long
Misty planet creature how could I kiss you wrong?’ – T Rex, I’m a fool for you girl – Nonsense, but lovely.
‘Pick a card, any card, wrong.’ Blue Aeroplanes, Jacket Hangs

Two chords, unrequited love, twangy guitar bit and under 3 minutes. Perfect.
