I like music but I also like other things too.
One half of @thebreakdown.bsky.social and one third of @machomusicisstupid.co.uk
- I'll tell you what, four band emo bills on a Sunday night are punctual af
- An evening watching Clubland TV has revealed that I still know all the words to It Takes Two by Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock and that I'd completely forgotten about Numero Uno by Starlight. Who needs MTV's music channels when I have D-Mob, Candy Flip and Coldcut on tap
- Genuine first thought here was “oh god, what’s Avril Lavigne done now?”
- That Women's League Cup draw done by GK Barry and Ella Rutherford isn't looking quite so bad now is it
- Sorry, you're gonna have to narrow it down a bit
- Reposted by Steve VickersDidn’t get chance to properly post yesterday, as a bit full on, but I have written a book. On the history of music in Sheffield. Out in May via the excellent @whiterabbitbks.bsky.social. Pre-order available now and full PR spiel here. Thanks for the love so far www.thebookseller.com/rights/white...
- This is guaranteed to be amazing
- This - finally - is the definitive musical history Sheffield so richly deserves. GROOVY, LAIDBACK AND NASTY is @danieldylanwray.bsky.social's authoritative and hugely entertaining story of the city, told through its independent artists, scenes and spirit. Coming May 2026 geni.us/GroovyLaidba...
- Who do I need to speak to to get The Rat added to the @endoftheroadfestival.com karaoke song list this year?
- They say you shouldn't wish bad things to happen to awful people but recently I've lost two friends and my dad and Nigel fucking Farage is still alive spouting division and hatred and I will never stop lamenting the fact that the cunt didn't die in that plane crash

- Not enough bands erect a tent mid-set and encourage everyone to get in it, while performing in front of an inflatable castle on stage
- They said I'd never make it as a professional photographer. Well look at me now

- Another one for my collection 'Terrible artwork in Airbnb bathrooms'
- It's official, we're putting on a 'cool band'*. Come and see @fortitudevalley.bsky.social in Sheffield, at Sidney & Matilda on Sept 14th. Tickets available from numerous outlets. This will take you right to said outlets--> linktr.ee/mmissheffield * all the bands we put on are actually verified cool
- There's an old couple playing Yahtzee on the train with really noisy dice and I'm looking back fondly on all those times there's been someone playing shit music without headphones
- Not even exaggerating when I say I think you'll struggle to find a better lineup in Sheffield this year. Get some tickets here --> linktr.ee/mmissheffield
- We are SUPER EXCITES to add BIG OTHER to the line-up for our next show with @fortitudevalley.bsky.social 💖 Inspired by Sonic Youth, Pixies and Veruca Salt, they've been described as "screeching and sprawling" and "a gripping wall of sound". Remember Laurie Hulme from Songs For Walter? It's him! 💖
- Billy Idol was wearing a Billy Idol t-shirt. He took it off, throw it into the crowd, left the stage and emerged in a full length shiny leather jacket and did White Wedding. If that's not the perfect warm up for Kraftwerk I don't know what is
- Currently watching the. Happy Mondays. There is only one person here who doesn't know the words to Step On. Unfortunately that person is Shaun Ryder
- They cut the sound off as they were overrunning. They proceeded to do Wrote For Luck, seemingly oblivious to their silencing as it was so loud in their monitors. And that errant full stop has been annoying me ever since
- I am in London, otherwise I'd be at this. But you should go, if you're in the vicinity

- People of a London and Nottingham: go and see @junkwhaletheband.bsky.social and @nathysg.bsky.social tonight and tomorrow, respectively. They were so good last night. Thanks to everyone that came down to Clam. And if you're in Sheffield, you can see @pinkopaque.co.uk again tonight at Hatch

- Right, @junkwhaletheband.bsky.social @nathysg.bsky.social + @pinkopaque.co.uk is happening in 2 days time. If you're not coming, you'd better have a bloody good excuse. Not living in Sheffield is valid (up to a point - I WILL carry out a full transport feasibility study) www.skiddle.com/e/40909589
- The answer is always the Kaiser Chiefs
- This implies that there's a bad place in Sheffield to see some donkeys. To which I maintain that there isn't
- Maybe this will also work if you read the below post
- Sorry, this already existed. It's called Radio X
