Computers, IT, Intune, SCCM and a lot of music chat especially live music. Occasional rants on LFC and loves open political discussions.
Unexpected turns on Bluesky today. On my card I didn't have the mug drawer inquest I must admit.
OK I’m at a friend’s house. Two people live here: my friend and his wife. He’s just opened the mug drawer. There are, I would say, 30 plus mugs. He maintains he has a normal number of mugs. I think it’s a LOT of mugs. What you all think?

White Stripes at my favourite venue, Brixton Academy. Probably at the height of their popularity at this point, off the back of Elephant. So much sound for just 2 people!

On this day in 1998, #Catatonia released their epic second studio album, International Velvet
It reached number 1 in the UK charts after initially entering at 11, had the pleasure of seeing them on this tour. Even went for the soundcheck and spoke with Cerys Matthews beforehand

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

One of my favourites and the first time I saw them. Suede at The Roundhouse. This was before the Roundhouse was refurbished and was just an old engine house, with outside toilets (festival style) in December!
This was the Coming Up tour.

It's bloody hilarious that Musk backed a side that hates electric vehicles and Tesla sales are suffering because of it.

Here’s the thing…. you don’t have to give up streaming. If enough people shift to another platform it will force Spotify to make changes and make others listen. Artists deserve their share from the music industry. Without artists music is dead!
Just read a new terminology for Spotify and it seems accurate enough - we think deserves to be trending.

Adding my big artist in a small(ish) venue. Bruce Springsteen at the Royal Albert Hall. Just him, an acoustic guitar, a harmonica and an order to the crowd to not sing along.
It was mesmeric and all for £25.
