Sean O’Hagan: ‘That lovely, beautiful humanity I had with Cathal Coughlan in those later years was amazing’ – The Irish Times #HighLlamas #microdisney #CathalCoughlan #SeanOHagan

While retro #totp is all very good, if you're a #Microdisney fan, you're on for a treat at 10 on #BBC4. If you don't know them, check out the documentary. They should have been bigger but I'm kind of glad they weren't. So many good tunes. #AndTheClockComesDownTheStairs

Friday Night Music (UK).

This might appeal more to the #6Music crowd than the Top of the Pops crowd.

This Friday (i.e. tonight!), BBC Four, 10pm. "The Story of Microdisney: The Clock Comes Down the Stairs".

"To their fans, Microdisney were one of the greatest bands of all time. But most people have never heard of them. This is the story of a huge talent that went largely unrecognised."

I had the immense pleasure and privilege of a few years working with Cathal long after he gave up the professional music business, before his very untimely death. He was not only a hugely talented musician but a very intelligent and kind man.

If you have any interest in music at all, do watch this or catch-up later on iPlayer. I'm expecting it will be a fantastic programme.

Hallo und guten Tag, ich bin auf dieser Instanz #NeuHier. Ich bin zwar nicht von meinem “Heimatserver” berlin.social weggezogen (dort drüben bin ich als @FrauBluecher unterwegs), habe aber vor, hier einen Schrebergarten für Gelaber über Musik und Literatur einzurichten, welches dann doch mehr als 500 Zeichen pro Post benötigt. Dafür wird mein mangels Interaktion brach liegender Wordpress-Blog schlafen gelegt.

Den ständigen Empörungsmodus von Twitter möchte ich hier definitiv nicht weiter pflegen, deshalb tröte ich seit meinem Umzug zu Mastodon bewusst unpolitisch − und sehr viel entspannter. Gute Musik, horrible und fantastische Literatur und Handygeknipse sind bislang meine Themen, und meine Nerven danken es mir. Auch aus diesem Grund werden Leerdenker & Co. ohne weitere Diskussion geblockt, sobald sie sich zu erkennen geben, ich habe keinen Bedarf, Lebenszeit mit sinnlosen Diskussionen zu verschwenden.

Hello and good day, I am #NewHere on this instance. I haven't moved away from my "home server" berlin.social (over there I'm @FrauBluecher), but I'm planning to set up an allotment here for banter about music and literature that requires more than 500 characters per post. In exchange, my Wordpress blog, which is lying dormant for lack of interaction, will be put to sleep.

I definitely don't want to continue the constant outrage mode of Twitter here, so since moving to Mastodon, I've been deliberately tooting non-politically - and much more relaxed. Good music, horror and scifi literature and mobile phone photography have been my main topics so far, and my nerves thank me for it. Also for this reason, "empty thinkers" aka covidiots, right-winger & co. are blocked without further discussion as soon as they make themselves known; I have no need to waste life time with pointless discussions.

Extra viel Liebe für / extra love for:
