Still reeling a bit from @geese_band last night. Might just be the best new band I’ve seen early, ever. Let’s all have a Disco yeah?

@AVARY I’m gonna guess Herschell Gordon Lewis

Best commercial of all time. I want to know who the director is!

Just finished animal house @jamesjamesbrown enjoyed it immensely.

@NME @neworder Nice choice of photo lads.

.@neworder announce ‘The Best & The Rest Of’ remastered collection, featuring previously unreleased remixes They are set to land via Warner Music on July 17 bit.ly/42KtIiw

Dont just take my I-had-to-drag-my-jaw-all-the-home word about DE… (Where’s Wally in the 3rd photo)

Dove Ellis. Fucking hell.

@dublin_damo In Dublin for a flying visit, popped to Cleary’s on your (previous) recommendation(s). Really good. Thanks 🫡

Another photo of French's in Gorey, was very impressed by this pub, going into my Ireland top 10.

@SamChaplin Looking back, the potential they had and what they (failed to) achieve(d) post SA, marks them as probably one of the most disappointing bands of that period. Album leaked 4 months early too, fun times.

Remembering when I thought Bloc Party were going to be the most important band in the world. Silent Alarm was that powerful.

@PaulJonesRacing Should I be taking the 5/2 available now about ‘Straya then?

G’day. 1. Australia 2. Finland 3. Greece 4. Italy #esc

@chrisodonoghue @PaulJonesRacing Cheating bastards will win the televote. Fuck ‘em

@PaulJonesRacing If Israel could slide into 4th - everything would be perfect

@nfluk_tickets This was Dublin (possible Paris guide). Ticket sale day was a shitshow & not surprisingly the lower category tickets went v quickly.

For people asking for how much tickets cost. This is a breakdown of prices for the London games last year. Work on this is the best case scenario if they keep the prices the same. x.com/i/status/19281…

@VeritasAequltas @Graemello7 @BBCSport @rioferdy5 This is all very mind bottling.

@Graemello7 @BBCSport @rioferdy5 Yeah its AI. Doesnt make it correct. Just mean many other people are saying it wrong.

Rio Ferdinand doesn't hold back when talking about England's so-called golden generation.

@BBCSport Not shouldering the club-over-country mentality are we? Not accepting that your ideals/norms/values were part of the problem that added to all this. Fucking egotistical prick. You weren’t a team & didn’t support/play for each other. It’s your fault Rio.

@steelydante Sitting Still?

@w0rldmap CobrArlen

@TaraLees23 @WarwickADavis @tenable @ITV I think my exact words were ‘aaahhh I’m such an idiot’ actually.

@WarwickADavis @tenable @ITV

@WarwickADavis @tenable the guy with the moustache just said “f***ing idiot” after the universal blur answer, and you showed that on daytime tv @ITV

This is shit, a Justice remix of this would make it amazing.

@TomCiopp @mulaney It’s because it is the greatest song ever written

@mulaney Honestly, I get why he thought that was the greatest song ever written.

“ My audience at the Hollywood Bowl is being treated to this 18 minute version of Brian Wilson singing Shortenin’ Bread. youtu.be/pylWc_UVeB4

@lfitzmaurice Good shit, as per.

Alex Turner of Arctic Monkeys showing up to Animal Collective member Geologist’s birthday party and making fun of his tie-dye t-shirt is the kind of lore that I would not be able to make up

@edgarwright What kind of Irish is 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 Grandad?

I can’t find the link (Sky needs to put all the sketches on YouTube!) but the SNL UK Pork Sketch was gold and ending with the real deal was a perfect button. So many great performers on the show.
