I wasn't even blaming the leave campaign. I said 'the referendum.' Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

I remember really liking their debut, I think they played TGE around the time. Completely lost touch with them, will give this a go.

It was perfectly legitimate to suggest that the atmosphere during that referendum created conditions where someone like Mair could think what he was doing was right. And that's the reason I don't want another one. Another 6 weeks of the right-wing media becoming increasingly hysterical about...

If you've not been before I did it last year and really enjoyed it. Food was really great, there was enough good music without it feeling too rushed, never felt too crowded. There was lots of 'mum's pissed' going on but it was pretty funny really.

I think you've hit the two big nails on the head as it goes. It seems to me that The Great Escape was the biggest factor; - Opened up new/exisiting venues to the possibility of doing live music there. - Provided a platform (now mainly through The Alt Escape) for local bands to achieve national...

I sort of remember the whole block of 2008-10 being very strong but it could just be nostalgia.

Yup. As I said above they have a lot of friends down here. Their first EP/ mini-album was released on Faux Discx and they played Brighton loads before the first album proper came out. Jon (pictured rocking said T-Shirt) fronts a wicked band called Cowtown that play down here once or twice a...

Gives me an excuse to post this. What a performance..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFP3wlEcAUc

I am slightly worried about this. That wall of noise used to be ferocious live. If they drop 'On Leaving' I'll probably cry.

Not just that but my opinion on this one may not be the most objective. I do genuinely believe it though. Perhaps the higher points are higher on 'American Dream' but I think 'Microshift' is a stronger record. I think there's a piece about trajectory here as well. 'American Dream' is a...

You know how I wasn't blown away by the LCD record last year. I think the new Hookworms is a better record than 'American Dream.' *awaits flaming.

Parliament/ Funkadelic / George Clinton are in Sussex for Love Supreme in July.

And the show at The Haunt that Soft Walls supported the Jabberwocky weekend (just before 'The Hum' came out) was immense. Are you sure that GDS gig wasn't more like 5 or possibly 6 years ago? I was defintely there and thought 'Pearl Mystic' had just come out? Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

The Hookworms album is brilliant. So impressed. Will be a great atmosphere at that gig I imagine, they have a lot of good friends down here. I might come across something. If I do I'll give you a shout. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Tom Brady 500 yards passing and on the losing side. Send help, I'm dying of laughter.

He was good in that friendly Saints kids embarrassed us in 4 or 5 years ago.

Nah. Green Door Store was the perfect venue for him - https://www.theguardian.com/music/2012/aug/02/ty-segall-review He played a less than half full Jam (now Sticky Mike's) a year or so before that one and was incredible. I'm sure it'll be good though.
