I shouldn't be awake at this hour, because the band was supposed to play a festival a couple of hours away in Lahti last night and I am the designated driver, but unfortunately our drummer got Covid and we had to cancel. Listening to Currents is always good compensation for life's little disappointments.

Somewhat new-related: I went to see an Iranian singer yesterday (good show) but she was supposed to perform with her sister, who couldn't come for "passport issues". I heard she was allowed to come, but then couldn't go back home. Visa issues are common in music, I hate that

Iran is more complex than we usually give it credit for, from what I heard from Iranians (as in people who were born and lived there). They believe in education, women even dominate there in many fields. Our Saudi friends are not even close

That's true, Fred, from what I've been told as well. Just the whole Morality Police thing.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:38am

Sadly Fred, it's a definitive no from FMU Management re the Name. Because it references a tiny Venue in an obscure Suburb of an Australian Town. So I am now alone in my Show ideas. But a TRASH CULT Patron/ Guitarist of Astro Fuzz band: Sam Noske, gave me a top quality, brand new Broadcast Mic; saying you gotta do a Show man! Thanks Sam!
