Nice one! Great bit of Curtis. Here's something else (there isn't much live footage but the live album is legendary and was one of Stevie Ray Vaughan's faves as a kid. And he knew how to wear a hat. He was found on the pavement outside a block he was living in. Apparent suicide. Very depressed man but murky death.

You got PM

Oh yeah, got Mathletics on the Camden Crawl CD.

Can you be the most unique band? You pretty much are or are not unique...but I nitpick.

May go for a purchase of that myself as I like, though its tough to go down the art rock route and not sound rather like Talking Heads ;-)

Cooool.


I know Kate's had a couple of appearances before, but this was her launching her album in the states last night.

I love her little lghuuurrrgh* at 39 seconds, really made me laugh




*can anyone suggest a better spelling please.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
