It's like every episode is a finale right now - if they can keep up this pace then it's going to be quite some season.
Twin Peaks and GoT Mondays are such a treat!

Indietracks 2008 - plucked up the courage to meet some of the weird internet people and see what this world was all about. Probably a life-changing experience. The Deirdres are joy incarnate and ballboy blow me away. The Lucksmiths in Glasgow, 2008 - Travel from Stornoway to see The Lucksmiths play...

Have front row tickets for the second day in Edinburgh which I realise may be a little incomplete, but it would be tough to get there from work on the Friday for the first part. Still to hear the album mind you! Need to rectify that before then.

This was just the greatest thing. I'm still on a high. Even Indietracks itself has its work cut out now. Thanks again, Jo and Chris! Gavin bloody Osborn. Well, just everyone. Pop music. Bloody hell. Thanks, Pete. Sunday was just one of my favourite ever days of Pop!South. A perfect day for me. I th...

Wow, people really do just come onto Anorak to promote their own stuff these days.

I know I've already said Sacred Paws, so this isn't another vote as such, but I saw them play the other week and it was the most purely joyful live show I've seen in a long time. Would be amazing on a sunny day on the main stage.

Well, that was an experience. Have a line-up now though! We've added BooHooHoo, Joyce Delaney and Mi Mye since I last posted and now we have a poster! https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/s960x960/16422213_10154692121425020_6905904419647199361_o.jpg?oh=0decfff749593d29ee9ed3b9865702cf&oe=5...

We do it because we love it / and I'm here because I love you

Last night at The Scala was pretty extraordinary. What a beautiful band. Talulah left me a wreck!

I do want to come to this but it is too early for me to commit yet - how soon/likely is it to sell out? The usual thing in previous years is for Saturday and Weekend tickets to sell out and for there to be maybe a few left for the other days but not until much nearer the time. You're ok for a good ...

It's a genuinely brilliant piece of TV for all sorts of reasons. Please watch it.

Now with added

The Orchids
Wolf Girl
Blood of the Bull

Go for it!

And I probably can't make this one either.

Drats.

That's a shame. If anyone else fancies coming then let me know if you need any travel advice or similar.

I'll do a proper list at some point, but a big fat yes to Bossy Love.

Hard to know how objective you're being when you know a band so well, but I'm pretty sure every song on their 6 track EP is great! Proper melodic, jangly pop - https://bodyheatglasgow.bandcamp.com/album/bodyheat The video was a lot of fun to make! Quite ambitious for a first go in a way but I think...

Helped Bodyheat make this silly video because they're my friends and/or wife. For fans of jangly pop, BMX Bandit psychiatrists and ex members of Dananananakroyd doing slow claps. The pedigree! Talking of pedigree there's a cute wee dog in it too. I remembered to come back and watch this when we wer...
