Like most people in Scotland, I have no A-levels.

Bangles once sang backing vocals for the Dead during an encore. It was the song “Iko” at the end of a show in October’88, but really should have been “Walk Like An Egypt ‘78.”

How did you convince them to dress as Monolithic Undertow? 😉

It’s national Book Day in the Uk where amongst other things kids are invited to go to school in costume inspired by a book. I have again failed to convince my son to dress up as The Golden Road: The Recorded History of the Grateful Dead. 😉

There’s a certain sense of schadenfreude in the air in Scotland.

I hear the ghost of Tam Dalyell has already been sighted in Washington.

See also dogs.

Essentially abolished in Scotland. It can be done.

I probably did hear it back then, just can’t recall it. One of many filed under “good but didn’t buy the album” I think.

I remember them from “the olden days” but can’t remember their music at all. Any good?

Chė Guevara was of Irish/Argentinian descent. A Galway man.

An advert for a helicopter trip in Dubai appears on my feed. Nah, not for me, mate.

Dropped in yesterday after a long absence. Feed seemed to be full of American gun nuts.

Brewdog: Bars close and hundreds lose jobs as beer firm sold in £33m deal Beverage and cannabis company Tilray acquires the Aberdeenshire brewery, the brand and 11 bars for £33m.

An appalling company, feel sorry for its staff

Quality has gone down as well. The leather is like cardboard

I know I keep banging on about my designs but it’s not easy being a small business at the moment.

Thanks!

The goddamned six o'clock news makes sure I keep thinking of World War III

All the pictures released from the WH and Mar a lago look like promo pics from a remake of Dr Strangelove.

Both of those would have been worth seeing!

Yup.! I’m imagining them performing the theme from Taggart before Miles and the Dead take the stage…

Plugged Nickel, Dec 65, miles Davis Quintet
Hawkwind, Space Ritual tour
Dylan Glasgow/Edinburgh ‘66
May 8 77, Cornell university

Can confirm.

Fake Telegraph headline - The Magma cult has finally broken the spirit of our nation

Well, it’s tougher to capture the sound of a Burning Brain, that’s for sure

So having a viable alternative to Labour / Reform seems to be attracting voters. Scotland’s voters have been demonstrating this for quite some time. #snp

A moment’s silence, please, for the Conservative Party. Who not only came fourth, but couldn’t even scrape 800 votes.

Absolutely delighted to see the wheels fall off the Reform clown car just as they were preparing a lap of honour round Nuremberg stadium.

Anyone checked on Scottish Labour this morning?
