Yesterday in Waterstones in Liverpool, in their clearance section, I spotted a (hardback) copy of Rick Rubin's The Creative Act, no dust cover, no price other than the original of £27... took it to the till, asked how much?   "Call it 3 quid, mate"!

Just had a very heavy shower for 15 mins which was nice !!!

First post in a while, that picture needs updating 😂

Thanks for the votes of confidence, it will be an honour! The Saturday evening at the Cropredy bar is always one of the biggest highlights of the year for me, so it means a lot. Look forward to seeing you all there!

And me?  Well, this week I'm going to Aberteifi for a Datblygu related gig....and then up to Morecambe for Hawkwind's Friends and Relations 2 day bash.

Impressive looking lineup for Bob Harris at the RAH...

Anybody spotted the root domain name of this server?

Anybody remember ASML and Muffy?

Anybody got a copy of 'Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time'?

Modern Times tour 1975. (With Simon and Gerry in the band) University of Surrey. Took along a new girlfriend

As an aside although nothing official , if we have no discernible rain between now and the festival I would be amazed if camping stoves of any kind were allowed on the fields.
The fields are cut back but tinder dry and an accident waiting to happen.
I wouldn’t be buying supplies just yet.
Lucky there’s lots of on site food options.

Nice one Colin.

Cheers,

Always a bit dodgy to forecast 10 days in advance, but it looks better than the one I looked at a few days ago!
