Be so good to everyone you love. It’s not a given. I’m so annoyed that it’s not. I didn’t live by that standard and it kills me. Please, hug your loved ones.
These are my favourite albums of all the albums. They’re not in order because to put these things in order would be ridiculous. Listen to all of them from start to finish at some point.
Can I now safely say that I have the honour of playing the Hearts song before the match at Tynecastle tomorrow? I might need a council inspector to check me out...
I did a new Christmas song with the band. If you like it & download it, please consider donating what you can to

Just did the thing where I clearly posted from one twitter account and then almost immediately retweeted the information via this more popular account. Don’t care. Get the

album on Friday, or else.
Dream remembered from last night: I play an FR song on acoustic guitar for a crew of breakdancers to “get down” to, but I can’t remember the words so I make up a really bad final chorus for Holy. Sounds like my dream is Justin Timberlake’s reality now...
Hey guys guys guys I know it’s only just been released today and all, but when do you think the hip folks will start shortening it to ‘The System’? Tomorrow? Anyways, read this... Thanks Tom!

Announcing our Friday night opener - our friend Scott Hutchinson (

) of Frightened Rabbit! Get there early - Doors 6 pm, Scott 7:45, The Hold Steady at 8:45!
My theory is that the first album you hear by a band you fall in love with is the one that stays with you. I heard Plans before Transatlanticism so, there you have it.
@owljohn
Some magic choices there (the hubby will be delighted there’s a Hold Steady in there) but I simply HAVE to put Transatlanticism a wee bit ahead of Plans. But only a tiny bit.
That
@FRabbits
gig was just perfect, thank you so much guys. Plus
@owljohn
's shutdown of the troll flailing around next to us was the icing on the cake.
I don’t think it’s terrible, I just think it could have been so much better. Totally my fault. We had so little time thanks to the 2 year Organ Fight tour. That tour could have gone on forever. Actually, maybe it did...
