    Using "woke" as a pejorative term is the style of the right-wing, the reactionary and the mentally lazy. Which of those are you, sunshine?

    Do the words Presley, Penniman, Nelson, Jagger, Brown, Pop, Rotten, Mercury and Bowie mean nothing to you?

    Thanks everyone for retweeting me Joanne's account of the window cleaner singing Whole Of The Moon. I am touched this song is finally getting its rightful recognition as a window cleaning anthem by virtue of the line "YOU CLIMBED ON THE LADDER". 😀🎯🪜🪟

    It's none of your damn business Keir Starmer @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour You don't get to say who plays, who sings and who doesn't. Stop being an authoritarian dickhead.

    I never thought I'd be following @piersmorgan and depending on his common sense, robust argument and energy in a pandemic, but here I am. And coming to really like the bloke. Good man, Piers.

    This is true. My band won't do dynamic pricing coz it's a ripoff against the spirit of rock'n'roll. If it happens the artist has either agreed to it or is oblivious/out of it/doesn't care/naive.

    While I hate Ticketmaster, truly, deeply - the artist has to opt into dynamic pricing

    Ireland owes Father Ted, the TV series, a huge debt. It loosened the gnarled bonds of the church using brilliant humour and satire over twenty years ago. And it's still funny.

    I'm proud to be dissed by the Daily Mail, a racist, imagination-bereft, conformist rag that gaslights Britain every day and supported Hitler in the 1930s.

    It would appear that a lot of short-fused religious fanatics have mistaken the Feast Of Dionysus for The Last Supper. Vive la France, motherfuckers!

    Incredibly sad news. Goodbye Jumbo was an ever-present early 90s soundtrack.

    Some dude on Instagram said Pete Townsend's an over-rated guitar player. Like saying Mozart's an over-rated composer. Townsend = genius innovator, stylist & individual guitarist; one of the greatest rhythm players ever, killer lead player, stunningly inventive. Praise for Pete!
