Yeah, "Child Of The Flatlands" (his ode to Billingham) is especially good.

It is indeed.
The recent release of the German version of 'Versions of You' became a bit of an earworm for me.

A band that has aged brilliantly, remained relevant and always puts on an exceptional show.
Without doubt though, my favourite aspect of them is that I can hear my accent being sung in songs. It's so prominent at times that I get goosebumps.

One of my favourites, started Uni in Newcastle when they were just starting out, felt like we saw them every week First couple of albums are tough to be imo although I really got into the latest one.
Brilliant setlist last night! Karaoke Plays!! Would have been tempted to go if I'd remembered but it's a bit of drag getting to/from Nottingham from S Yorks midweek. Hopefully they give this tour another run but I think it's unlikely.

They were saying they were hoping to tour a new album, so that's something to look forward to.One of my favourites, started Uni in Newcastle when they were just starting out, felt like we saw them every week

What did you think of Pip Blom? I'm a good friend of her and her Dad Erwin (who was in the band Eton Crop)...both been on my podcast too. Amazing energy live

I saw her quite a few years ago and thought she was ok, but nothing special or innovative or different to many similar acts. I saw her again in the last year and although I'd still like more innovation or variety personally, she'd come on a lot as a live band and they definitely give it plenty.

Was in Nottingham the night before for the Burning Hell. Was going to stay for MP but came to Sheffield which is where I am now. Going to see Counting Crows tonight.
It was a toss up between MP and Pup in Leeds. In the end we did neither but had a great night in Sheffield finishing of at The Washington.
