I've just had a quick look at the most recent posts and it looks like only four or five of us have been active on this forum for the past few months. What happened to everybody else?

The lady who introduced Bill Nelson's Red Noise on The Old Grey Whistle Test has left us (we'll let you off fluffing the intro, Annie).

Just been informed Bandcamp have been bought out and half their staff canned. This does not bode well.

My favourite Youtube reactor, JustJP, has reviewed the entire The Love That Whirls album (though you'll have to click the patreon link to see the full reaction). He liked it a lot (as he did Sunburst Finish):

I was sure there was a general observations thread here, but I couldn't find one, so here we go. Anything that strikes you as interesting, amusing or infuriating about modern life - put it here. To start things off, I have been struck by the popularity of certain names in football and the ridiculous number of players on a top-flight team's rosta, so imagine this: First eleven of a Premier League team in an alternative universe where there are no overseas players: 13. Callum Mason 24. Mason Jordan 16. Jordan Connor 30. Connor Callum 18. Callum Jordan 41. Connor Mason 10. Connor Jordan 37. Mason Callum 29. Callum Connor 11. Jordan Mason 9. Jordan Callum-Connor

One of the pillars of the 90s alternative comedy scene and a fine actor has left us. This is how I will best remember him:

I saw her when she stood in for Cindy Wilson during a B52's tour in the 90s. She fitted right in. Appropriate that her husband played Roam to her as she passed away.

I am finding it hard to believe, but Foo Fighters drummer, Taylor Hawkins, has passed away at the ridiculously young age of 50. No cause of death has been given as yet. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-60884259?at_campaign=KARANGA&at_medium=RSS&fbclid=IwAR2Pd9KLtU1vlKiaUWy7jW1Co4G-3XUkO7c12BuXkdDfbaSEdw9SRV7SNxk
