    Not a band I've generally been drawn to much beyond singles, didn't expect a full album to hold my attention.

    Found the new Shed Seven album surprisingly enjoyable this morning
  5. Sounds like at least one of the pubs I used to drink in back home

    Hadn't picked up on them at all before this, heard their name bandied around but no more. Good listen that. Cheers @JRhys29

    Yeah, the rainbow colours bit wasn't a highlight 😂
  11. Had to struggle to think of what gigs I went to, 2023 was a bit of a blur for various reasons. Had to go back into my ticket purchases to remind myself, and depressingly I seem to recall incredibly little of Glastonbury 😞 Having a stab at 5 instead: Mogwai - Brighton Dome Death Cab For Cutie - Brighton Dome Max Richter - Park (shout to @bennyhana22 and @Titters for taking me to that one) Teskey Brothers - Other (ditto to @Gnomicide) Dub Pistols - Concorde 2 Not quite a gig so it gets an honourable mention, but finally saw Wheel Of Four Tunes on Sensation Seekers and it was an absolute joy. Honourable mentions for pleasant surprises to Gwenno on Park and Dylan (not that one) at Victorious.

    Kicking off the year with a new one from Worthing indie band Moonlight Parade
  15. Been a fairly quiet year for me, nothing to do with the music just not been massively into listening to new stuff. Very much found comfort in the familiar. Of the stuff I have listened to, #1 of the year is undoubtedly Dreamer by Nabihah Iqbal. Had that on loop quite a bit. Honourable mentions in no particular order: The Lottery Winners - Anxiety Replacement Therapy Everything But The Girl - Fuse Temples - Exotico M83 - Fantasy GoGo Penguin - Everything Is Going To Be OK The Hold Steady - The Price Of Progress CVC - Get Real Jessie Ware - That! Feels Good! We Are Scientists - Lobes
  16. As opposed to just being plain tedious
  17. Don't give him ideas. I might have to join him for THS Camden gig next year and just steer him away from backstage...
  18. Sea King Desperately Sea King Desperately Sea King Susan Desperately Seeking Susan Madonna confirmed

    England at Glasto

    No skin in the game this year, but my abiding memory of the 2010 Sunday debacle was leaving at half time purely because it was absolutely ruining everyone's (and by extension my) mood. Sure, if Eng win a game then everyone's in a good mood. But the mood in that field during the Germany game was just...depressing. Blazing sun on a glorious Sunday afternoon at Glastonbury, and all I could see were angry unhappy people. The gamble's not worth it for me. My shift to the London Community Gospel Choir on the Horlicks Stage was a far better use of my time.
  20. Being a miserable old bastard would feel like the perfect fit for a Paradise Lost / My Dying Bride gig 😄 Two names I haven't heard in ages
  21. He's a celebrity to me 😍
  22. Is this just because no one's yet said how they met that Forrest Gump runner bloke with the beard?
