Michael-John Keenan

A wonderful day at Berkeley 2 Studios in Glasgow today. Possibly my favourite place on planet earth. Reunion of my old band that split in 91/92. Unsurprisingly we remembered every note, beat and nuance of the song. We rehearsed them often enough back then.

Enjoy. I'm envious. I've lost count how many times I've saw it, but none have been on a cinema screen.

Great interview of the man whose ditties introduced me to the diminished chord, which I now use with monotonous regularity.

Great song and references to Bergman's The 7th Seal in the video. Away to contemplate my navel now. youtu.be/iIyrLRixMs8?si…

Oh Bugger.

More Mr Dolby. I remember where I was when I first heard this as a teen in 1984 and the eerie piano caught me. Hospital radio with tubes hanging out me, I couldn't use my left ear, so only a single earpiece. Took me months to track the song down. youtu.be/jUHYLBxmUEw?si…

Thomas Dolby; great musician. great producer, snappy dresser. youtu.be/4SSAqXKPZns?si…

This rare footage of Django Reinhardt and the Quintette du Hot Club de France from Jazz Hot (1938) is a must-watch…

I awoke with this song playing in my neural radio. How bleedin' pleasant a way to start a sunny day. What a voice!!! youtu.be/1QxDeJhaXOY?si…

German Techno played by a brass band. Oft of a Friday evening (as is my want) the hypnotic tones of Meute prepare me on my journey to dreamland as the meds kick in. youtu.be/3MVBoIZGf-E?si…

Trying to clean my car to within an inch of its life today. Proper 'taps aff' weather but that would mean getting eaten alive with the midgies, so sweaty work. It looks like I'm going to need my Christmas shower 6 months early

4th time of watching Babylon Berlin in anticipation of season 5 later this year. A bit like my repeated viewings of Twin Peaks, each new viewing reveals more details.

40 years ago, this Sunday. 40 years before that WW2 was finishing which felt like the dark ages when I was watching Live Aid on the telly. I can only conclude that I'm not the whippersnapper my mind tries hard to convince me that I am.

Bad and unpredictable #CFS day today. Had plans to set a couple of guitars up today...had the tools all set out. Instead, it's a bed day with one of my favourited voices on the headphones. Every cloud... youtu.be/9aTqUHtArfA?si…

Oft of an evening (as is my want) I will sit and stare for hours on end at this man's art. We didn't get this in the Navy though. We got bully beef in the Navy. Fuck all else. Just bully beef.

My son caught sight of a meteor tonight on the M80 at Denny. Possibly the most interesting thing my dashcam has caught. @welshjb

2009 Ray Nouveaux Custom by Claudio and Claudia Pagelli. Posting in the hope that someone will take pity on me and buy me one.

Now that I've shaken myself out of my initial curmudgeonly-ness regarding Glastonbury. I ended up watching quite a bit of it today. I watched this twice because it was so bloody good!

The ups and downs of life as the years pass. Keenan boys day out me, my son and my daughter's 2 boys. The upside: the wee fella won gold at his first judo comp🥇 The downside: 10 years ago, I was the same shape as my son 😂
