#adventsingles The Fingers - The First Time / Barracuda on Pre-B.S. Records, 1991. My love for The Fingers is both unconditional and inexplicable. They're rubbish, but my kind of rubbish. I cannot recommend them to anyone. Friend or foe.

Today's #adventsingles is The Pictures On My Wall by Echo and the Bunnymen on Zoo Records. I've never seen them live (it's probably too late now unless they fancy playing @theoddies.bsky.social or The Peer Hat) and I have no interesting anecdotes to share. Good record, though.

Today's #adventsingles offering is Teenage Love Bomb by Australian garage rock napalm-slingers The Dirty Lovers, whose career was ended when two of them were killed in a post-gig car crash. There's some tremendous footage on YouTube. Teengenerate covered the flipside, All I Want.

The hardest working guitarist in rock and roll took it to town for The Liminanas tonight.
No idea who he is, but he earned his corn.

Bringing us up to date, here's today's ##adventsingles A-Z+ selection, Cee Bee Beaumont's 'Ready to Riot!' EP on @damagedgoodsrecs.bsky.social . Pretty sure I saw them support The Mummies at Rails in Euston. But only Mark Flunder is allowed to correct me on that. More tomorrow.

Swiftly bring up the rear, it's the second single from my #adventsingles A-Z+ Big Break's 'Exile on Exchange Street' EP on Wrong Speed Records. Saw them at this year's JT Soar Fest in beautiful downtown Nottingham. Highly recommended.

The first record of my tardy #adventsingles A-Z+ is The Astronauts' 'The Big Sound of The Astronauts' EP on Pin-Up Records out of Bielfeld, Germany. Space-suit-wearing low fidelity surf pop. Saw them with Phantom Surfers at Rails Club, Euston Railway Station, London in 1994. Great stuff. #XmasA

Finally got to see Ye Nuns last Saturday. Have had the LP on Tuff Enuff Records for years, but they were elusive live. Set list (presumably amended from their @upset-the-rhythm.bsky.social show) was kindly donated by @gigticket.bsky.social

JT Soar Fest Day Two. A bit skinny on the pics. Buffet Lunch and 100 Flowers. Both all-tmers for me. Not least because 100 Flowers did (the obvious) two Urinals songs as a phantom encore.
