He precipitated The Fall, for sure.

I appreciated this. Thank you.

You're UK, right? Did you catch the London show last week?

I'm in the Boston area and got to see two of their reunion shows this year, for which I feel undeservedly fortunate.

How can so many of you be so so stupid?

(to the tune of that Toys "R" Us song)
I don't want to go to work
it's a bunch of bullshit
there's a million assholes everyday I have to deal with

...and so forth.

The extended absence killed the PRF

I feel seen.

Yes, I saw them with FM Rimbaud III and a couple of other friends in Café Oto, which is a lovely venue. They are undimmed, as brilliant as they were when I first saw them, supporting Dinosaur Jr in 1993, the first gig my brother and I went to that wasn’t one of my dad’s favourites. They’re just a wonderful band, love them dearly. Spoke briefly to Arthur and Sean, who were warm and said they remembered the Manchester gig.

To be fair, all the world's problems started when England became a thing.

Ha! I was thinking about Conservative party supporters.

I might go mad if I have to stay in this insular, complacent, lethargic, self-satisfied bore of a country.
