RSD has crept up on us, forgot about it. Surprised there isn't owt by Manics this year, was half expecting a 12" of Tolerate to follow suit with the Design For Life and Your Love Alone ones from 2016 and 2017. I'm sure we haven't seen the last of the Manics RSD release, just wonder what next. As much as I love it I never expected owt to mark Journal's 10th anniversary. If we're lucky we might get Peeled Apples or Jackie Collins on tour maybe? I dunno..

Now when astrophysicists released radio image of black hole in M87 this excerpt from Be Natural strikes me even harder:

Quote:
Grown up
Or backwards born
Into eternity
And black holes
Floating around
Up here on my own
Screaming at me
Forever unknown
I know it's metaphorical but it sounds so astrophysical and it's really awesome.

Glad that they added it later. Demo version is boring without this passage.

Booking things for the tour is exhausting not only for my mind but also for my bank account

Walk a straight path to a friends? Or add about a minute to the journey by crossing road (Lucky Easter Monday lull haha) and walking down a path that has a CHERRY BLOSSOM TREE dropping it's foliage?

There's quite a few near where I live and I do exactly the same all the time.

Oh and then when the blossom all falls it's like the Everything Must Go video, so that's cool too.

Well, I'm in Korea.
PLENTY of cherry blossom trees here. ♥
Jealus? JEEEEEELOUS? Mwhahahahahah *cough cough*

Jokes aside, yep, they are beautiful.
They remind me of almond trees near around my kindergarten back in my hometown Umag

Although this title of this documentary is almost certainly a coincidence, Alice Guy Blache sounds like someone who would be of great interest to Nicky.

Me old uni housemate lives in China these days. Just told us that Freedom Of Speech Will Feed My Children has been removed from Apple Music there cos of the lyrics.

Silly really isn't it? A song that hasn't been performed for 12 years from on one of the less popular albums by a band who've never performed in China and, well... how well known are they in China? Yeah... Freedom Of Speech Won't Feed My Children isn't a threat to any government... if anything, may well have brought more attention to the song.
