Led Zep were getting £100 a night around then.
50p to get in, mind you.

Watching Winter Watch. They saw a Spoonbill with a ring on its leg so they contacted the BTO.

Why they contacted the Bachman Turner Overdrive I don't know.

Is that all? A Spoonbill with a ring on its leg? You ain't seen nothing yet.

Apparently Bron-Yr-Aur in Wales is set to declare independence.

It's okay Michael, the long, long wait is finally over

Indie icons Pulp have announced a new album, More, and shared their first single in almost 24 years, called Spike Island.

Speaking on BBC 6 Music, frontman Jarvis Cocker said the band had been tempted back into the studio by the overwhelming response to their 2023 reunion tour.

Oh good.

Oh good.

Glad you're pleased because they are a brilliant band and Jarvis is a great front man don't you agree Michael.

Pulp bringing out a new album is fantastic news. I'm glad Monkhouse is on board.

Can't wait.

Pulp update. They are still shit.
Far more importantly...
The Sun. So it must be true. https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/34712702/spice-girls-reunite-world-tour-2026/

I went to see Rialto last night at the Scala in London.

You may remember them. They had a few good records in the late 90s and the turn of the century.

Anyway a very good gig.

I remember the Raynes Park Rialto. A good old flea pit of a cinema. When they got the reels in the right order and the projector didn't break down.

Good news eh?

Hope MM doesn't read that as I think he may die of an apoplectic fit
