Gaz Coombes was superb. The venue was great was great aside from a huge queue to get in :slight_frown: I understand security, but over an hour to get in is too much.

Mate, listen to Matador and the new Album. I think heā€™s gone under the radar. Itā€™s 25 years since the first Supergrass album.

My mate has always claimed that he is in the video for ā€œAlrightā€ā€¦as the bed is being driven about. Iā€™ve always believed him but as I type this Iā€™m beginning to suspect bullshit.

Iā€™m not sure how else to explain it.

Supergrass hit the big time with Alright.

My friend has always said that heā€™s in the video for that song.

The video has the band driving around the roads whilst sat on a bed. He says he was on the streets where they drive past.

I have always believed him but am now doubting the claim.

He could have been cut. The edited video is inconclusive

my friends gf got him tickets for the show for his 30th - cost about Ā£100 each. The other day, my other friend managed to get some of the ā€˜lucky dipā€™ tickets for Ā£30 each.

The lucky dip seats were better :lou_facepalm_2:

Busy few weeks coming up.

Seeing my friends band in Shoreditch tonight.

Then Tuesday flying out to Barcelona for Primavera.

I should be working but this is too important. At around 2min 15sec there are 5 people standing by a fence, could you ask your friend if he was with 4 other people when they drove by, this info will prove if heā€™s telling the truth or if he is just a filthy, lying, scumbag.

Iā€™ve looked and itā€™s not clear who those people are. I might know all of them or none of them. I will ask my friend to flesh out the details of his story and report back.

Sorry for my attitude mate, was a bit overtired :lou_facepalm_2:

Didnā€™t notice any attitude, Ted. Certainly no need to apologise, silly sod.

Frank Turnerā€™s Lost Evenings festival the other weekend was great. Thankfully never seems like the same songs are played though of course there are some duplicated through 4 days. Also caught Sean McGowan and Get Cape, Wear Cape Fly.

So tonight I sat in a small basement pub with about 79 other people to see Frank Turner talk about his new album, a question/answer session, a few acoustic songs and then we got to meet him. I got a hug! He is very tall.

I had to encourage my partner to join the queue to meet him. He wasnā€™t sure about it but think heā€™s now quite pleased and he asked if there will be more Lost Evenings. There will be but not always in the UK.

Tomorrow night we are off to see the Stones. I am trying to find a bag I can take because you can take a small clutch bag. Fine but I have a home visit before hand where I have to do direct work with kids. Also I donā€™t own a small clutch.
