Church Times article: Nick reflecting on a memoir by Sean O’Hagan. "[Sean] will say: ‘What do you think of this? Do you believe this?’ And I’ll say ‘No’. Two weeks later, we’ll ask the same question, and I’ll say: ‘Well, yes, the answer has changed completely.’ That’s what a good-faith conversation is: you’re allowed the privilege of being wrong... We both grew through these conversations" #faith #indie80s #NickCave #Church

@johnl I remember seeing HMHB when I was 18 and pogo'ing to Trumpton Riot. It was a wonderful moment to take my 18yr old daughter to see them in Stockton on Tees several years ago, and dance to the same track together. I'm going to have to listen to some Vandals, thanks for that #hmhb #indie80s

Funeral music choice: Snuff's version of "You're wondering now" by The Specials. I've seen Snuff play live several times, most memorably at the Reading Festival when several of us scaled the tent poles during their rendition of the Cadbury Flake advert. #indie80s "You're wondering now, what to do, now you know this is the end. You're wondering how you will pay, for the way you did behave"... this video isn't mine, it's from Huddersfield: https://youtu.be/FMiI09FXnqU

My mastodon timeline is now full of bicycles, longdogs and theology. I feel that indie 80s and chemistry are under-represented. Slaithwaite and Marsden posts are non-existent... but that's my job as the #SMBMS ... I need to see more #chemistry and #indie80s please. Ooo, wait, I know... "The Chemistry Set":

I remember seeing the Sperm Wails supporting mbv on the Isn't Anything tour. I think it's obvious why I now have tinnitus. Utterly brilliant shouty 80s indie music.

There's more to life than books can show
...but do you really want to know?
and is there somewhere you can go?
On reading weekends
