The weekend beer and music thread

[WeeGord]

Evening folks, it's been a long week so hope you're all looking forward to the weekend as much as I am. About to make myself a home made curry and sit and watch the England game with a couple of beers so hopefully we give Malta a good thrashing and the Italians come unstuck in North Macedonia. Won't be more than a couple though as meeting up with some friends for the first time in a while tomorrow so no doubt have a few more then. Anyhow, a decent pint I always enjoy is Atlantic Pale Ale - might not be everybody's cup of tea so to speak but I find it a nice alternative to Punk IPA.



To kick us off with a tune, you can never really go wrong with the Levellers so here we go...

had terrible MANFLU for a few days, so no going out for me today. just had this 8% beaut which had a charmed life for nearly 2 weeks, surviving untouched in my fridge. an unfortunate name for an IBD sufferer like myself, but an amazing beer (& brewery). cheers!

Just had a lost lager at the warehouse bar on Stockton.

But tonight I have ice cold bottles of Stella on the go

Bit of instrumental Funk.

Calmed down a bit now.
Some timeless toons on the platter.....

Won't be bothering with the football. Can't stand all these international breaks. Everything stops just so that England can thrash a couple of minnows 10-0. Ridiculous.

It was The Teardrop Explodes last weekend so it has to be a bit of Wylie now and then it'll probably be a bit of Echo and the Bunnymen later.

Enjoy your weekend, fellas.

Last one for now........
Enjoy the evening.

Had a month off the grog, so picked up a handful of Weihenstephan earlier....nectar

The news continues to remind me of how satanic humans can be towards humans.

This band knew this, even at the tender age of 16/17. Still valid today, and no doubt in another 100 years :(

Evening, just back from a few days in the lakes, whether was decent enough. Just opened a bottle of my favourite Sauvignon Blanc (Oyster Bay)
Mrs F is away this weekend so I’m going to dig in and try to get through to the end of my Day Skipper theory course, so there’s only one song to post. If you’ve never heard this before give it a listen - awesome.

Here's a beer and song from our good friend Easterside Red... very good choices too. On that note, and with the season of goodwill almost upon us, is there any chance of reviewing the naughty step status of Easterside Red @fmttmadmin @borolad259 ? Thank you kindly.

Don't start the Beatles debate again WG. We'll be here all night. Give my regards to Easterside Red/Nobby/BoroFur/Coluka/Boro Legend the next time you see him/them.

Prompted by something in my socials, I decided to revisit this album ... which was always a favourite. Their two appearances at the Rock Garden are still firmly etched into my memory as about the most intense and visceral I have ever seen. Despite their menace, they were lovely blokes. And the late Jackie Leven remains one of our greatest songwriters. The songs that I usually find myself singing forty years on are Stripshow and Hey Sweetheart. But listening to this epic again, I was reminded that there wasn't another band like them, before or since. The wine was an absolute steal from M&S... clearance price £6 (£4.80 with my discount). Belter.
