The Big Feastival is this weekend! thebigfeastival.com (Or if you are watching this in the future: some weekend in your subsequent August.) I'm there most years, come and say hi! In 2023 we're making a giant sun dial.

Blur are on tour again and have a new album out! I've seen the show and listened to the album so can recommend both personally. blur.co.uk
