Back again with a PSA that the best album to listen to on the way home from a gig is Harlem River Blues by Justin Townes Earle.

Sorry I'm at a gig, I've met the headline artist already and she knew who I was, I'm just paying the care forward at this stage as it's the only way I know to process it

Yeah. Two questions really. How are you both, and did you both know there is an audience for this podcast that really cares about you?

Wore the middle one tonight. Bumped into Lilly Hiatt about an hour ago (she's tonight's headliner) and she loved it

On a scale of one to you're off to a gig tonight, how's your day going?

Ed Quoththeraven @edquoththeraven.bsky.social · 16h

On a scale of one to the bus waited for me to run to the stop and when I got on I was the only passenger, how's your day going?

(and you've already promised someone you'll wear their shirt to one gig)

@remembrancewatch.bsky.social the Sheffield Steelers have launched their bid to become the UK's most remembrance ice hockey team. Can't foresee any issues with this.

Guy Mowbray on MOTD: "is Ruben Amorim on the verge of one of his best victories as Manchester United manager?"

Well, it's not like there are too many to choose from

As you might imagine in a Robert Jenrick constituency, Labour are not the threat, at least not to the same extent as Reform or a group of independent right wingers, some of whom were expelled from the Tories

Ed Quoththeraven @edquoththeraven.bsky.social · 4d

It's probably a damning indictment of the Labour party that in previous elections the local Tories thought being seen with him would damage their chances, but now they're totally fine hanging out with him

He is my MP, it's not that random. "Stand up to Labour-run Nottingham City Council", say signs held by people not brave enough to identify themselves as the local Conservative party.

How's this for timing: I go away for the weekend and Robert Jenrick turns up in my home town to do some shit stirring

"not sure why replies are turned off" says a random person I don't know about a post I'd set to "users you follow" and "your followers".

Feel like I've finally arrived on BlueSky

"not sure why replies are turned off" - they aren't, they're set to people I follow and people who follow me. Happy to help.
