Description

The two-man tandem of curiosity wobbles its way down the rock and roll cyclepath pausing here to admire the view …

 

… “We’re captive on the carousel of TIME-AH!!”: tuneless Northern club singer Reg “Reg” Snipton performs Ver Greats.

 

… is going to gigs alone becoming a thing?

 

... why Phil Oakey was a better musician than any of ELP.

 

… Seven Nation Army in football stadiums - and does Jack White make any money from it?

 

… what rock stars spend their fortunes on.

 

… people who are ‘jewellery-blind’ (eg D Hepworth).

 

… the scariest intention a musician can announce.  

 

… Dutch fans dancing.

 

… the poignancy of all John Lennon’s possessions.

 

… how to wreck the Great American Songbook (may involve xylophone solo).

 

… from the Euros to a trip on the tube: how selfies have invaded our space.

 

… the strange, unfinished story of John Lennon’s Patek, “the El Dorado of lost watches”.

 

… you’re never alone with an iPhone.

 

… and does virtuoso musicianship ruin pop music, asks birthday guest Guy Constant? (Answer: yes).
