Spiers & Boden? Again?? Don't mind if I do! @spiersandboden @squeezyjohn @boden_jon

It's February. It's cold, it's damp, we're all a little sad. But @spiersandboden played Squire Performing Arts Centre is Nottingham tonight, so all's good with the world!

@bellowheaduk I had the pleasure of meeting Ed a few times after gigs. He was always so lovely. He'll be sadly missed xx

Those who came along to the 2024 Bellowhead tour will remember our wonderful helicon player and dear friend Ed Neuhauser taking centre stage for the introduction to Fire Marengo. What you wouldn't have realised is that Ed was diagnosed with a brain tumour 12 months previously.

@JohnFinnemore It's not Christmas until you post this! Brilliant!

Get dressed, ye merry gentlemen, let nothing ye dismay! For it is Christmas, Christmas, Christmas. Christmas, Christmas Day! It’s Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Day… It is Chri-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-histmas day, Chrissymas Day, it is Chriiiiiiiistmas Day!

@bill_mcconkey Anyone from ReBoot! (although it is a little niche!)

I start another magazine job next week, but in the interim I may have a few hours this week to try out a few new techniques.. Particularly ink drawing.. So Twitter/X are there any characters in pop culture you'd like to see me draw?

@Mand_West @boden_jon I'll let you know if I see anything!

Did I ever mention that I love @boden_jon & The Remnant Kings?

@Mand_West @boden_jon This was at the Midlands Art Centre in Birmingham. Nice venue, lovely staff!

@SeeEmilyPlay29 @boden_jon You and me both Emily.. so pleased we finally met (at Crookes) watching them 😍 x

@Suzie_W2 @boden_jon Of course!

@SeeEmilyPlay29 @boden_jon Just goes to show what good taste you have! I trust you had a wonderful evening.

@MGBoulter @boden_jon Birmingham, hopefully! Just got to work out how I'm going to get there!

Back on the road this month with @boden_jon and the Remnant Kings for The Parlour Ballads Tour, Part 2. Maybe see you there?

@WMurphyLaw @womensart1 Genuine question (not trolling), what evidence do you have for this? I've read both the Sheldon and Taylor biographies and don't recall anything like this. I've read rumours of infidelity, but not abuse. I'm genuinely curious. Thanks!

@womensart1 He generally was abusive and treated her like crap.

Eileen Blair, from South Shields, UK, was believed to have had a large influence on her husband George Orwell's writing. 'Nineteen Eighty-Four's title and idea is thought to be based on one of her poems - 'End of the Century, 1984' #womensart

@boden_jon Loved you in Leicester! Euphoric!

Fantastical been fantastic touring with these lovely chaps! fantastic performances every night :-)

@GreigARJohnson Found my favourite!

@SeeEmilyPlay29 Thank you 🙏☺️

New things for you to acquire please. Stickers, mincemen, pfuffets and particularly 'The Complete Foodfarms' book — I ordered 75 of them, so if the orders came flooding in, that would be so great. Lіnк іn віо.

@barbajk @bellowheaduk Fantastic video!

Wow...we love you @bellowheaduk ! Joyous in Bath #fiddle #jumping

@Helen_Lindley @robkb2 @bellowheaduk At my first ever Bellowhead gig, the stage was so low I was practically face-to-face with Benji!
