Just saw this myself. As this is on the radio, by going to https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/live:bbc_radio_three you should be able to listen anywhere in the world you are.

Black Cherry Purple vinyl re-issue
There were 150 available with a signed art print, but they had sold out by the time I got there, which was about 10 minutes after the email was issued so no idea who got them. Another 50 will be added into random orders after that so fingers crossed…

B52's were fabulous, but what would you expect? Another bunch of stalwart musicians getting on with it despite their age. Cindy is a mere 62, Fred 67 and Kate Peirson, like Stevie Nicks, is 71. They're keeping their Freak Flag flying! At …

Fleetwood Mac were superb as were the Pretenders, if all a little distant in a space as cavernous as Wembley Stadium. Stadium gigs are not my favourites. Any gig where using binoculars is viable is going to leave you detached from the band. It also …

Hi El. Marc Kremmers was one, Adam Klein was the other. He's from Fascination Management (I have an email address for them). TBH, I've had most response from mute@mute.com. That time the site went down and then once up the emails for invit…

Muse were brilliant as usual. Old board friend @Littlebird saw them in Manchester. Not sure if @HellsBells got to see them. We chat on Twitter and if she did, she hasn't said. This Sunday is Fleetwood Mac at Wembley Stadium. Added bonus is tha…

Welcome btw @onceuponatime & @MarcoB Nice to have new blood on this board. Worth having a troll through all the threads as there are a few where you can post a little more info so we get to know you. Let us know if you need any insight as to how…

It doesn't necessarily mean anything. Quite a few songs feature Alison in full free form vocal interpretation mode, a la Liz Fraser, using the voice as a musical instrument in its own right, or as it puts it on her Wiki page, 'not relying …

@Halloween_Jack I assume you can't do that unless they get back to you? Someone must be tending to this site otherwise it would have crashed by now. Is there a briefcase with Nucleur codes? I stroll through here most days as the tab is never c…

How do you feel today?
I saw one thing yesterday that was quite touching. They arranged a meeting between a British Commando, who was 19 when he landed on the beach and a German soldier, who was 18. That sat down with them and introduced them to each other and they both s…

Hi El One thing I have noticed is the forum aliens don't like some email addresses that people use, such as GMail. I've had others who did not receive the joining email from the aliens as it goes into their spam folder. You could try emai…

I saw Toyah again last Friday. This was an Up Close and Personal Acoustic gig so she interpreted a number of her songs to suit 2 acoustic guitars and an electric/upright bass. No percussion, just what could be generated off of the acoustic guitars b…

Alison's birthday 13th May
In honour of her birthday, my favourite song about a girl called Alison, by Elvis Costello The simple, clean guitar work on this is impeccable, especially the end section under the repeated line, my aim is true! It's from the viewpoint of the …

Like migrating birds, returning to their hollows; their niches; their nests of mud. Like Salmon, gamely returning to the waters in which they were spawned. Like the myriad of creatures on the Veld; returning to their ancestral watering holes. That …

@PonyGurl's room has been empty for a month now. Perhaps she's on vacation? Anyway, apparantly I've got a gutter to clear as there are some weeds growing in it. Don't want the water to come over the top and leak down onto that s…

Just realised that this place is like a holiday camp out of season. Now, it's Winter or early spring. A few peeps are about, keeping things turning over, then we hit the Summer of a new album and the place will be thronging again. I spotted @Lu…

Oh, I bought a nice red vinyl copy of Hunter by Anna Calvi on vinyl this week. Still to listen to it but I saw her hour long set on BBC 6 music's week-end and she was fabulous.

Just to let you know I visited today, dusted, let the cat out, emptied the bins. I checked the fridge and the milk had gone off so I've put another 4 pint in there. Anyone who had mail I've put it in your slot but it was mostly circulars. …

Another gig ticked off for later in the year and a band I've been wanting to see for many years. We have tickets to see the B52's at the Eventim Appolo or the Hammersmith Apollo for anyone who frequented the place back in the 70's and…

The incidence of Goldfrapp on the Radio remains high. Tom Robinson on BBC 6 Music with Lovely Head on Saturday. Definite upswing.

We went to see KT Tunstall last Monday. That's the 6th time I seen her and she is a fantastic artist. So committed, so rocking on stage. Witty between songs as well. She currentky has an all female band that she has dubbed 'The five Fannie…

Funny you should mention this. I listen to the radio a lot, like all day at times. BBC 6 music generally. You get to know how much they play of certain bands and the incidence generally goes up when an artist is coming up to release something, kind…
