Top night at Rough Trade. First up reformed 80s indie band The Room whose Dave and Becky I last saw in Benny Profane in 1990. New stuff great. Then Estonians Shelton San who clearly love Sabbath. Finally @BlueOrchids4 with no oldies but still fab.

Always nice to hear @BlueOrchids4 @marcrileydj BBC session 9th August 2022 Uploaded by @FruitierThanTho @NewWaveAndPunk @GCPunkNewWave @ScotsPostPunk @WallyTBM youtube.com/watch?v=5ld_C1…

Lowland and highland they roared lustily This was our affair ‘til you put your finger in it. Masterful storytelling, sublime groove
