Ricky Spontane

@TheMartinMurphy Sorry for the delay Martin, haven’t been active on here for a while. There aren’t many. I think I have three. Dunno about the others. I’ll check again. If I have enough you’re welcome to one.

@RSpontane tweet of the day. How many of you have this on vinyl?

@KlausJoynson Yep. Total classic too.

@RSpontane "What are you doing here, Spike? Five words or less." "Out. For. A. Walk." *huge pause* "Bitch."

Watching an episode of Buffy.(Pangs). And it's calming me down. Gawd, that was an intense week.

@KlausJoynson My fave ever Spike quote is probably S6,E1, after saving Giles from a vampire. “See your life flash before you, Watcher? Cup of tea, cup of tea, almost got a shag, cup of tea, cup of tea..”

@RSpontane "I'm saying that Spike had a little trip to the vet, and now he doesn't chase the other puppies any more."

@DAVIES17013636 @TheMartinMurphy Yes. I think it was also the one where the electricity was pulled because we overran.

@TheMartinMurphy @RSpontane I think that was probably the gig we got signed at?

@RSpontane is any of your stuff on Spotify? Just to say you were a real inspiration. I snuck into the Falcon in Camden as a 14 year old in the mid 90s to see you guys. Gig changed the way I saw music & the world.

@KlausJoynson “Ok chief! I take it back! Sorry!”

@RSpontane "I'm parboiling out here!" It's the 'par' part that makes it. Let's give Jane Espenson her due.

@KlausJoynson Rewatching all Seinfelds in order - it’s fun to spot the Buffy crossovers - so far got Principal Snyder, the swimming coach and the demon posing as a Christian in ‘Anne’.

@TheMartinMurphy You're very welcome!

@RSpontane Thank you

@TheMartinMurphy We did this a couple of years ago. Also on Spotify, Itunes etc... rickyspontane1.bandcamp.com/album/the-seed…

@RSpontane No worries. Always worth letting people know they’ve been an inspiration. As a teenager in a band at school I’d only seen TOTP etc so seeing a great band in an intimate venue was so exciting. I think I have all your stuff on vinyl / cd but look forward to any prev unreleased bits

@Garethgoape @johnpeelarchive @JohnPeelCentre @dandelionradio Ha ha, about 130,000/1?

Sorry this article is from The Daily Fail. But what are the chances of the deceased husband also being called John Peel? @johnpeelarchive @JohnPeelCentre @dandelionradio dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…

@outonbluesix Though he did take the softie Walter comparisons with good grace, to be fair. I’ve hated every other single thing about him apart from that since he came to my attention, to also be fair, so the pie sounds good to me.

Emergency Questions 347. If you could put a custard pie in the face of anyone in the world, with no retaliation, who would you choose to do that to? Jacob Rees-Mogg. He deserves it and hasn't got the sense of fun to handle it. He'd finally lose his temper and it would be EPIC.

@simonjh @RocksStoat @DUCKmagstoke McGrath's grown a beard!

"Cheats never prosper". @DUCKmagstoke @RSpontane

@gormley_greg The damage this knob has done on so many levels is just incalculable.

@pfentwistle That's a really pork wallity joke, mate!

Thought I'd take up boxing to keep fit during lockdown but couldn't buy boxing gloves anywhere. Tried to improvise something with rashers of streaky bacon but it was a ham-fisted attempt to be honest.

@beardless Feck, that’s me out of it decades ago!

Now I guess I'll have to tell 'em That I got no cerebellum

@RocksStoat @YouTube @elizpetitgould Buddy Holly. Found it aggravating.

@RSpontane @YouTube @elizpetitgould Glad you like it, Garth. It's on the same album as Buddy Holly and Sweater Song (not sure which one you mean). The way this builds up in the last couple of minutes is phenomenal. And that bass...

Weezer - Only In Dreams youtu.be/uHPUy-Yfj2Q via @YouTube Possibly the best combination of song and video ever. (Possibly). It's damn good, even if not... @elizpetitgould @RSpontane

@KlausJoynson @opac_ad Who's that?

@RSpontane @opac_ad Are Coventry even Coventry any more?

@opac_ad @RSpontane Well that's a nailed on three points for you guys on Sunday.
