@nee_massey Dang. Night 2! I’ll never forget requesting Stay Loose at Coachella and y’all delivered

It really happened. I’m sitting quiet in a car in a field, worn out, but we played the albums, and more. We’ll keep varying the second half of the sets as we go. Thanks to everyone who came to the Troon shows, and to all at the concert hall who helped.

@Tim_Burgess I remember you coming out and saying “it’s not charlatans UK it’s just charlatans” me and my brother thought that was really cool.

A lifetime ago. Back where it all started A Gathering of the Tribes October 1990 We got to play alongside The Cramps, Ice, Iggy Pop, Michelle Shocked, Public Enemy, Soungarden and Queen Latifah

If feel sorry for young ppl who think THAT is “indie rock”

@nee_massey Our 3rd Tyde LP is named after it!

Anyone want to guess the programme? And what American show did it inspire?

Had so much fun out with @arielxpink this weekend in Florida.

@nee_massey Magic tune!!! I got some fun Police and Chrissie stories from Florida back in that time period

At this juncture can I just say a word about Cliff. Richard. In that year of pop wonder, 1979, when The Jam, The Police and Blondie were tearing it up, Cliff sang this one. I dug it at the time, not as much as Brass In Pocket, but nearly. And that’s a lot youtu.be/uRMFS_Qvi_U?si…

Flying solo in Ft. Lauderdale Friday night w @arielxpink gonna be epic!

After my usual Sunday morning gospel listening somehow God brought me to the song “Late Developers” by @nee_massey which was perfect for my beach walk, it’s certainly your most mid period @jimmybuffett style tune. I wish he could hear it. On repeat

New Order for Chevy Equinox 🩶

SHUT UP! Orlando tonight! Gonna be MAGIC! w @AllahLas and Monde UFO

Cuz we don’t stop, we just won’t stop, sometimes everybody needs a friend.

Happy birthday to my lil brother Brent Rademaker, Neil Halstead and Johnny Cougar.

@JokermenPodcast Somewhere Near Japan tho.

The Beach Boys “Still Cruisin” (1989) received universally dismal reviews, four out of its ten songs were hits recorded decades before its release, it is not presently, nor has it ever been available on any music streaming service, and it is a certified platinum record

Tropical California freaks on a Florida trip this week.

@jennylewis Three parts vodka and A moment of silence for the Vermouth 🍸

all the g’s have their own martini recipe

@RogerMcGuinn Now they got an app for that!

When the Byrds first toured in 1965, it was pretty rough going!

Grease culture was NOT “indie”
