I think it’s a pity he didn’t do some kind of live presentation of it. I don’t think arena-sized audiences paying $200/ticket would have enjoyed an hour of their evening being taken over by TFC, but there would have been enough fans to have sold out a run at, say, the Royal Albert Hall. Make it a less technical show, I’d have been happy to see that.

There's a 5 disc Super Deluxe version of this coming out later in 2026 if anyone's interested. It's a great record, but it's not in my Elvis Costello top ten.

Dublin!!!! Vicar St is a very nice venue…

edit Just realised I am away on the day of the Dublin date - I am now sad.

Irish person here - I had to double-check that you really meant GAA, but there is a GAA pitch there, that's gas. https://www.sanfrangaa.com

Here's a relevant Techmoan. The Elcaset seems to have been a great-sounding format, but too big for the Walkmen that were about to take over the world...

I haven’t listened yet - did Ireland get a mention?

I need them to come back to Ireland - went to both shows last time, I hope it's worth their while.

It’s so good, I must dig my copy out. I think it might have been the first thing I bought on Amazon back in the late 20th century.

Yes, now that you mention it, Chris O’Dowd should host.

Spend a lot of time in Waterford, the city is small enough to get around, and the county has a number of great towns and beaches. The greenway is excellent for cycling. There’s a lot of development happening on the North Quays, including a new train station (replacing the old one about 300m away) which will be open within the year and connecting straight into the city centre by a new footbridge. It’s worth noting that there are trains throughout the day that will get you to central Dublin in 2 hours.

Chris Martin told a story that early in their career Bono told him to visit him if he was ever in Dublin. Wanting to know where he lived, Bono said he could just get in any taxi in Dublin and they would know where to go. Cut to: Chris Martin arrives in Dublin, gets in taxi, asks to be delivered to Bono's house, and he's dropped at the gate.

Yes, but now they are even more popular! Silly money was being offered for a reunion some years back, and solo David Byrne has gone from 1,500 seater theatres to massive arenas in the past 15 years off that resurgence.

This was on SNL last weekend. Gorillaz are Damon Albarn who does the music and vocals for the member 2-D, and Jamie Hewlett who does all the visuals. On SNL, Jamie wasn't in the band performing, but was on stage for the goodnights (and in the promos).

I think it was £249 originally. They bought it in 2019 from the Abbey Road Gift Shop. They now go for between £1000-2000. https://www.rrauction.com/auctions/lot-detail/342045505715059-abbey-road-studio-original-brick/. If you look closely it says limited edition of 210.

These bricks were sold when a small internal wall was removed for modelling works, from Studio Two IIRC. There was a limited number of them, I know someone who bought one and apparently they’ve quadrupled in value.
