Bad, and getting worse. The knock-on effects of institutions failing are going to be so bad.

Soundcheck at #theoldhairdressers in Glasgow is in 30 minutes so graia fast burrito and reading Charlotte Joko Beck. Relating this to music opens up a vast expanse of calm for me.

Just finishing marking my 2nd year composition class. I rarely post about student work, but this sentence had me on the floor laughing: "The performers involved in the recording were X on bass guitar, X on acoustic guitar, and X on the glandular synth." I haven't listened yet, but I can't wait!!!

People often quote these “Irish blessings” like “May the road rise to meet you…” and all that sentimental stuff. However, my favourite, told to me by a fellow called Chris Roberts, is: “May the skin of your arse never cover a banjo” 😂

Just finished Marc Ribot’s audiobook ‘Unstrung’ Fairly enjoyable though the end chapters felt like filler. The best part was discovering the guitarist Frantz Casseus. Performed by Ribot, truly lovely. https://marcribot.bandcamp.com/album/marc-ribot-plays-solo-guitar-works-of-frantz-casseus
