@psbhq.bsky.social Evening all, I have a spare matinee performance print (long story) would be happy to swap with an evening one if anyone is interested 🤞.

Oh dear. Perhaps someone wants to swap an evening with you - some people bought evening despite not being there (and them not supposed to be sold until the evening show)

Public Service Broadcasting HQ @psbhq.bsky.social · 2d

It's so frustrating, isn't it

Big thanks to everyone who came along to the Barbican shows on the weekend - we had a lot of fun.

More white / black (day / night) t shirts have been made available in the online shop here, if you missed out: www.publicservicebroadcasting.net/pages/store

Lots of love, PSB HQ xxx

Don't go to any inordinate lengths, please, A-S - it's also entirely likely I spend the day vegetating in a hotel!

Just looking at Paris next week, and a rare day off.. having just blazed through Hilary Mantel's A Place of Greater Safety, can anyone recommend a good revolution-focused museum or similar? Preferably not overcrowded, but I know, it's Paris (c'est la vie)

It's not where the inspiration for the music comes from anyway.

The best description of us I've read, and quite a funny one, is collage rock. I don't think we're prog, unless prog has expanded to include post-rock, electronica, contemporary classical (at times), and I don't listen to what is commonly termed as prog, so the lineage doesn't really work (for me).

Look at it in daylight - the 'sock principle' I'm calling it. It's definitely not black

Deleted I'm afraid, so slim. I think a box did turn up recently though so we might have a handful online sometime soon (ish)

Public Service Broadcasting HQ @psbhq.bsky.social · 27d

Hmm. Now that you ask, I think it might be, yes. I think the label wanted it that way

Currently 4 tracks in to demoing the next album (still a long way off) and we have 4/4, 7/4, 4/4 and 5/4 respectively. Tracks 2, 3 and 4 all also have random bars with an extra beat in. Not particularly doing the 'we're not prog' argument any good

Nice to know that people are becoming more and more confident about outsourcing their brains, though!

Pleased to report that interviews / Q&As for us are starting to come in, from respectable outfits, which are clearly generated by ChatGPT.

The temptation to answer using the same method is pretty strong... were it not for the fact that AI comes up with utter garbage. Plus, I'm not that lazy.

Farewell & thanks for everything Captain James Lovell. Apollo 8 Command Module Pilot - arguably NASA’s boldest mission - Commander & survivor of the ill fated Apollo 13. I’ve met few people more inspiring or more generous with their legacy. God Speed, safe flight. #AdAstra #NASA

This has always been clear: plant-based meat alternatives are better for the planet and, at least compared to red meat, better for your health. That this is not widely accepted is the product of meat industry disinfo, science illiteracy, and some very stupid journalists.

Plant-based meats have been viewed at times as ultraprocessed and possibly unhealthy. But some experts believe they deserve a second look.
