Alfred Brendel dead - boo, but hurrah that he was here for a bit. Some of his Mozart recordings with Marriner / Academy have been recourses for a very long time.

Brain slightly full, but enjoying so far. The 9yo not completely intimidated either. @cityofgameshq.bsky.social #Emberleaf.

Home Service in Otley last night. Mesmerising and thrilling. Deeply unfashionable levels of musicianship.

Grand Theft Hamlet was all I suspected and hoped it might be and way way more. Hilarious, moving, bonkers and … the best and clearest delivery of The Speech I’ve ever heard. It’s on Mubi. Watch it now.

Saw Hamlet Hail To The Thief last night. Underwhelmed, though I appear to be in a minority there.

Twenty years ago today, I'd have been getting pretty bloody excited around now about a certain gig that night at the Royal Festival Hall - the (somewhat unbelievable) return to the stage - after 29 years - of Van der Graaf Generator! An amazing show... (pic by Ed Clarke)

I remain oddly entranced by the way that Trump has come to believe that "Thankyou for your attention to this matter" is the way fancy people end their messages

Coniston Old Man from Torver, via Goat Water (pictured) and back along the Dow Crag ridge today. Have discovered I’m not as fit as I was, at the age of 57. May have to cancel all further movement this year.

Why I'm leaning back into my own performances again, even though my chops aren't great. At least it's definitively human.
