I’m currently reading this WWI drama by Ken Follett and the reading gods appear to be giving me the message that the book should have been called something more unsubtle… 😳

Sad news. The US can do with civil rights warriors at the moment. RIP Rev. Jesse Jackson.
Currently listening to the truly brilliant Steven Wilson Dolby Atmos mix of The Tipping Point by Tears For Fears. It’s just superb, it really is. #TearsForFears #TheTippingPoint
First time visiting Mt Gambier and the Coonawarra wine region. Hopefull, it won’t be our last. 🍷
Just had a fabulous evening watching the legendary Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds live in concert in Adelaide. What an amazing show!!! #NickCave #Adelaide
Awful news about the passing of Aussie drumming legend Rob Hirst of Midnight Oil. Damn cancer. #MidnightOil www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...
Good news for Aussie David Bowie fans. The new documentary “The Final Act” is on the ABC tonight at 8:30. Enjoy!!
I wrote this piece soon after the passing of David Bowie. It’s hard to believe he’s now been gone 10 years… 😢 #DavidBowie richardfoote.wordpress.com/2016/01/12/d...
The world hasn’t quite been the same since he left us 10 years ago… 🤷♂️ David Bowie: 8 January 1947 - 10 January 2016 #DavidBowie
Super excited that my new toy finally arrived today, the new liquid-filled LP of Pink Floyd’s masterpiece, “Wish You Were Here”. #PinkFloyd
Listening to the new Steven Wilson Dolby Atmos mix of the classic Frankie Goes To Hollywood album “Welcome To The Pleasure Dome” and it’s simply stunning. It’s spatial music at its absolute best, highly highly recommended.
One of the great things in being retired, is being able to now watch every second of the Ashes cricket 🏏 #Ashes2025
Finally, at long last, my 60th birthday present has arrived, the new box set of one of my favourite albums, Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of The War of the Worlds. There’s so much content here to enjoy, with the Dolby Atmos mix of the album being simply stunning. ULLAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
Had the great pleasure of watching the amazing @stevenwilsonhq.bsky.social live in concert in Sydney last night. It was a truly fantastic show, with another musical great I can tick off my bucket list. #StevenWilson
For a horrible moment during our walk along Inch Beach here in Ireland, I thought the plane was going to hit the moon. Luckily, it just missed… 🌑✈️
Impressive indeed 👍
Apple Music is having a laugh with all its Pink Floyd albums… 🤣🤣🤣 #PinkFloyd #AppleMusic
Sad to hear of the passing of Rick Davies from the band Supertramp. Breakfast In America was a key part of my musical upbringing. RIP. 💔 #Supertramp #RickDavies
Many in the US think that people are the problem, not the guns. But they’re OK with giving the problem easy access to guns… 🤦♂️ #GunControlNow #USA #USALogic
Undoubtedly one of Australia’s most iconic treasures, the Green Gorilla at Bathurst… 🙃🦍🇦🇺 #Australia #Bathurst
My new commissioned art piece has began, with the somewhat tricky initial location outline now complete… #RichardFooteArt #CanberraArt #CBR #NewYork
Matt Stone and Trey Parker, well done indeed… 🤣🤣🤣 #Trump #SouthPark
I’ve been fully retired now for 2 years and it has truly been fantastic, I highly recommend it 🙃. Of course, I’ve been as busy as ever, but focusing purely on just the fun stuff.
My selections for the Triple J Hottest 100 Hotest Songs. Unfortunately my No 1 Nick Cave song (The Mercy Seat) was unavailable for selection, but these all songs feature prominently on my playlists… 🎶
I know it’s meant to be satirical, but there’s definitely a sense of truth to this… 🤷♂️

Finally finished my latest art piece that I started in early April. Not sure whether to call it “False Trails” or simply “Blue” as many people that saw it progress said “Oooo, that’s blue”… 🙃 #RichardFooteArt #CanberraArt #CBR #Art
It was indeed, it was indeed, with the VERY best people arriving on planet Earth… 🙃
Thank you, yes I’m feeling rather good indeed, being “old” isn’t as bad as it’s made out to be. I saw the recent pic of Liz, she looked amazing and gives us all hope. Hope all is well with you.
