Noisy person. VdGG, Anna Calvi, The Waeve and others road crew. Stage sound design (NT Frankenstein etc). Occasional composer.

This disingenuous commentary doesn’t help anyone. Frauds start unravelling pretty quickly. That you apparently cannot afford to put your oven or treat yourself is quickly undermined by the question “so why are you spending £50 per week on petrol?” Then, it turns out, she has an agent and /1

Elaine in this article "can't remember the last time she used her oven" but also spends £200 a month on petrol (so driving probably ~50 miles a day?) (she's also a professional old person; she was on Good Morning Britain last year, and then also at the Nov budget, and the year before lmao)

We had fun. David Byrne’s show is one of the truly great gigs - especially considering it’s been on the road for about a year. Perfect meeting of conceptions and execution, and sounded gorgeous.

I had the pleasure of being at Lord’s when Ben Stokes scored the fastest Test century there in 2015 and again at the Ashes Test in 2023 when he scored that irate 155. Two of my best ever days watching cricket. What a player. Irreplaceable.

Preparing to say goodbye to the mighty BBC Radio 4 Long Wave broadcast. The first service began 101 years ago. The transmitters at Droitwich, Westerglen and Burghead will be switched off at 0100 BST on Saturday. The 200 metre long AM signal at 198 Khz goes right through you and sounds fabulous!
