Trying to save money sucks ass. Discuss.

@Nate Champion is a lovely person, good to have met them. Communication ends.

Start a thread for the crap I half write then half record?

Do you get lonely much? I used to feel wild lonely as a kid and early adult. Lately, I've started feeling lonelier than ever. It feels more profound because it's so mundane, if that makes a whit of sense. I hate feeling so needy.

Here's one my pal just released.

This song is vaguely tainted by being a massive hit for Robbie Williams but it is a solid piece of Beatlesy balladry. What's your favourite Beatles-esque?

What's the crack with the most perfunctory street busking cover videos getting millions and millions of views on YouTube? I keep seeing videos labelled "Most amazing Billie Jean cover" or whatever and it is some lad on Henry St or wherever competently banging out a busker version of said song...

I've taken a foray into arranging gigs after a long hiatus. In years gone by I sometimes drew decent sized crowds to shows but a few times were total disasters, at the time it was apparently because I wasn't on Facebook. I did a show last night that went pretty well but only fewer than 2 dozen...

The last time around, in those heady days of 2011, I ordered 80 copies of a CD and stuck the album on bandcamp. Sold all physical copies and a few downloads. What are the options these days? I mean I will probably use Bandcamp again unless anyone can suggest an alternative.

The TV show, not the wans. Have any of ye watched it yet? I think it is gas crack altogether. It's not perfect in terms of historical verisimilitude. They're awful for blending up the cultural year references. However, overall I think it is gas, the cast is deadly, especially Michelle, and the...

there must be enough Thumped kids (as in kids of Thumped people) that are old enough to form a plausible garage band. Has such an endeavour been attempted? I'd love to see a tweenpunk band having a hit with "Gorillas Mot As Scare Now".

Radiohead Finally Reveal Details of Deluxe ‘OK Computer’ Reissue, Due June 23 Inevitable swanky 20th anniversary reissue and overpriced boxsets aside, do any of you still listen to this album? I went through a phase about a year ago of listening to all Radiohead stuff from The Bends on on...

Alternative Ulster: how punk took on the Troubles

Interviewer - "Was there a time where you went into a meeting unprepared?" Me - "You mean other than this one?" I meant it as a joke and she laughed but right after I was like "ya mad eejit!" to myself.

I never really listened to this song closely before but assumed it was a Bee Gees number until realising the other day, hearing it on the radio, that the singer sounded a hell of a lot like John Lennon in parts.

Photographer Tracks Down People He Snapped In His Hometown Almost 40 Years Ago To Recreate The Remarkable Images I am such a sucker for this type of thing. The original photographs from the '70s/'80s are gorgeous.

So hmm, is this what you might call a tad crypto-antisemitic?

I was walking to the shops earlier and I saw that Ash are doing a 1977 (the album, not the year) 20 year anniversary tour at the minute. I saw them live last summer and really enjoyed it but was total nostalgia buzz apart from one banger off their latest album. I don't honestly think there were...

I don't really have the inclination to trawl through dozens or 100s of episodes of a podcast but please recommend specific episodes of your favourite podcasts. I really haven't listened to all that many of them but it feels like something I should do.
